Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Maybe the shortage is because they are too busy making TV sets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utah Bob #35998 Posted February 3, 2012 Author Share Posted February 3, 2012 Maybe the shortage is because they are too busy making TV sets? Clinton stopped the imports so the supply dried up and people who have em won't turn loose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 I found some chop Suey at the carry out the other day. They must be exporting something. Yeah, I know, chop suey is American. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawg Hair, SASS #29557 Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 That's pretty much what I paid for my M44. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dakota Rebel, SASS# 58412 Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 All mine cost me was a gunshot wound to the upper thigh. I went down and my M60 gunner got the shooter in the tree. He gave me the rifle, and I still have it. Minor wound, no broken bones and no trip home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Four-Eyed Buck,SASS #14795 Posted February 3, 2012 Share Posted February 3, 2012 Says SOLD OUT, UB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Utah Bob #35998 Posted February 4, 2012 Author Share Posted February 4, 2012 Says SOLD OUT, UB \Yeah, I didn't think they'd last long. On a positive note, some South Korean exporters say they have received the okay to send those M1s to the states. They will not be going through the CMP though, just retailers.

Waimea Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 UB Wouldn't mind seeing a price on those M1's. Keep us informed of the ones you don't buy. Waimea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waimea I doubt the household budget will cover a Garand at this point unfortunately. Maybe a brick of .22lr at the most . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trigger Mike Posted February 4, 2012 Share Posted February 4, 2012 I wish I had known they would become popular. I had one, and sold it to a cop buddy, he got a deer with it, but then was killed in the line of duty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grouchy Greg, SASS#71981 Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 I wanna know how come foreign milsurp rifles are still flowing into the country but the present misadministration in Washington still refuses to allow hundreds of thousands of American-made M1 Garands and M1 carbines to be brought back from Korea and a few other places?

Lone Dog, SASS #20401 Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 J&G Sales has some in. If the sample rifle in the pics is the pic of the litter, they are rough, especially the stocks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
