For you old school Garand lovers...

...that want to puke ...

[austin7.62]

Why?

[mikegideon]

Yep. Smith Enterprises posted that thing on Facebook. I shared it a little while ago with this comment...

 

Whoever did this to a Garand needs their ass whipped...

[ShamGlock]

That is pure awful. 

[TNcitizen22]

That should not be allowed to exist.  Someone should really put it out of its misery.

It gets worse when you enlarge it

Yeah, I posted from my phone, so I'm not sure how big the picture is.

i just died a lil inside

I guess as long as none of the changes are permanent it does not matter.  That muzzle break looks like a deal breaker though.

 

Pretty much hideous at any rate.

Being tarred and feathered is not enough for whoever created this abomination.

 

WTF is some people's obsession with putting an AR stock and pistol grip on anything that fires a bullet?

 

Another fine example of just becuase you can do something it doesn't mean you should.

Smith just posted a picture of a stock Garand... one in pristine shape. I guess they heard some crap about the abomination.

Does that mean this is bad?

Proof that guns are not capable of violence. If that Garand could have defended itself, it would have.

[DMark]

Does that mean this is bad? 

 

Yes. 

 

A great deal of gunsmith time and money to turn a $800 rifle into a $300 rifle.  :squint:  

[Lowpower]

So what yer saying is after 2million of these rifles were built and given to G.I.'s to go fight for freedom and some poor old sad sack carried that particular rifle from Belgium to Germany for a couple years, then decides to take that beloved piece that saved his life numerous times, home and keep it as his goto deer hunting gun. And when he gets home he takes it to his favorite old smitty and say fix my beauty so I can keep her as a hunting rifle until i die, thats bad?

 

Just wondering about the definition of collector....

 

BTW, it was brought home by a WWII G.I. and it weighs a bit over 6 lbs and shoots lights out. If yer looking for a real collectable these guns are getting very very hard to find.

that second rifle is more F'd up than the first

[Garufa]

I agree.  At least the first one might be somewhat tolerable with the addition of a cowbell or two as monkeylizard suggested.  Then it would actually serve a purpose.

[Lowpower]

Wow. So it's all about the money. 

[R1100R]

I wouldn't do it to any of mine. But I kinda like the first one. Funky looking.
