In the movie "Jaws" Roy Scheider brings a Garand out on the boat to hunt the shark...
*****Movie Spoiler Warning*****
...but he only uses it (in typical Hollywood fashion) to create a huge explosion with the oxygen tank upon which the shark is convienently chewing. Blow'd 'em up real good.
Two questions:
1. Wouldn't 8 shots of 30-06 be powerful shark medicine? Especially in the open mouth and eyes. Or are sharks somehow impervious to FMJ bullets?
2. Were Garands available to the general public back in the 70's? Was it through the DCM/CMP? Am I going to drool over how cheap they were?
