All right guys. I don't post much, prefering to read and learn, but here goes. I am looking at getting one of the CMP Garands. I don't have alot of money to play with (youngster starting out etc.) so I was looking at one of the Field Grade rifles for right around 400 dollars.
I have already inquired about the requirements to order from them, and they directed me to a club to join in order to be able to join (garandcollectors.org), and I have a concealed carry permit, so I have all the necessary items and paper work.
I have two questions.
Is the field grade a good choice? I can't afford a service grade right now, but is the rack grade a viable choice? Or are these the consolation Garands, more useful as a wall hanger?
Also, how difficult is it to clean them when they come in? What is the best to get the cosmoline off them? Thanks in advance for all the help.
