I buy from there sometimes. I have gone to look more in person that I have ended up buying but that is part of the "game". Picked up my 1st Glock yesterday from there..... G30

Very Cool! Congrats

Congrats! I have always wanted one of those for the "cool" factor that they have.

I wanna see the gang that has 52 year old gang members packin heat into the Dollar store. The "NRA" gang made me LOL. OP sorry that you had to deal with the Hendersonville police but sounds like they let you go without too much greif. The SS# and gang member questions would have gotten to me as well. However, all in all I would have let it slide after they checked me out and let me go.

NICE! Congrats

(quote) The leader of the nation's largest veterans organization says he is "deeply disappointed and concerned" after a meeting with President Obama today to discuss a proposal to force private insurance companies to pay for the treatment of military veterans who have suffered service-connected disabilities and injuries. The Obama administration recently revealed a plan to require private insurance carriers to reimburse the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) in such cases. (quote) The American Legion Strongly Opposed to President's Plan to Charge Wounded Heroes for Treatment "While we understand the fiscal difficulties this country faces right now, placing the burden of those fiscal problems on the men and women who have already sacrificed a great deal for this country is unconscionable."

Sorry yall I had hte nasty stomach flu over the weekend...Now I am back.

I found a pic of your M1 that I saved... I can post it here if you want.

Ok it is the one that i thougt it was.. nice rifle. Here is an email that i sent to the guy that I talked to. Scott Duff is the author of the M1 books that I use to evaluate an M1. What you are calling the chamber cover is the bolt. The 6528287 on the bolt is the part number. The A-10 is the heat lot number that helps date to bolt down to a particular month. http://www.scott-duff.com/ Other sources of information are: http://www.thegca.org/ http://www.odcmp.com/ If it is a shooter enjoy it! It should serve you well. I'd stick with M2 ball ammo like what you have.... most "commercial " loads are too "hot".

The NM sights will have to come off.. I dont think that NM sights comply with JC Garand comp rules. If the NM sights are millitary then they are worth some dough. If they are aftermarket then they will serve thier purpose. The bolt is post war... what is the serial range on the receiver? If you want to know more then field strip it and I can help you find out which parts are right for the serial number and which ones were added later. I think I saw the same M1 posted on the local sales network. If so the stock my be a boyds stock and not military. If you need work there is a great Garandsmith in your neck of the woods: http://www.dgrguns.com/ Congrats!

Great! I may stop in on ya when I make it out that way. CONGRATS!

NICE! Looks like fun

I have yet to own a glock but I do have a sickness for 1911's...
