I'm not even sure if I can legally buy a firearm in Louisiana now. Went to a gunstore, and they can't sell to a Bama resident, so I have to do some digging and fill out some paperwork before I can make a purchase.
The way it is looking, I am going to have to buy a gun sight unseen. That kinda worries me, but most companies have a hand-pick option that should help a little. I may just save my pennies and pick up a Garand at the CMP South store. At least then, I know what I am getting and I absolutely love the Garand. I would eventually like to get into Service Rifle matches, and I would have no qualms showing up with a decent Garand. Ultimately, I am wanting a rifle that I can hold on to until my dying days and be proud of. The Garand is a little more expensive than the others, but my thinking now is that it would be worth the wait.
