I finally made the budget leap and sent an order for a CMP M1. What should I be looking for in the way of tools, etc. to care for the Garand?
I am almost strictly a revolver shooter (just traded in my Ruger MK512 for a Mossberg Persuader) so am ignorant when it comes to semi autos. I imagine I have a lot to learn about gas driven autos.
Also Which commercial ammo is considered fodder for the Garand? For target, other purposes of which I may not be aware? Does it need /can it be prepared for a larger range of ammo? I understand it favors bullets of about 170 gr. Pressure curve ins and outs?
