Second Part of Clip Loading/M1 Garand

[eclancy]

Gentlemen,
For the new guys this is the next group of drawings for Mr. Garand Clip Loading Machine. If you wish I will also post the written text for these. Please let me know.

Without input from you guys no one learns anything Try to put in some info/question and we can learn more of the M1's History





A word to the WISE for CONGRESS:
"You cannot invade America. There is a rifle behind every blade of grass." Admiral Yamamoto

A Veteran, whether active duty, retired, national guard, or reserve, is someone who, at one point in his life, wrote a blank check made payable to “The United States of America” for an amount of “up to and including my life.”

Thanks again for taking the time and effort to read this data. I hope you have learned a little of the history of the M1 Garand.
Clancy
ps Could use some hits. I hope to have both sites update in soon. Have fun hope you enjoy and learn.

Yes, text please, eclancy.

Very interesting. Looks like it loads from stripper clips into the en bloc.

I find the date on the drawing interesting. Did we go that late before there was an automated way to load Garand clips? Were they hand loaded in the ammo factories prior to this date?
