Decent disassembly/re-assembly books for the 1903 and M1 Garand?

[F2CMaDMaXX]

Any around?

The book in this link exist, but the commenters say not the best, only brief guides and better ones exist. In typically annoying reviewer fashion, they don't say what *is* better.

Hey F2CMaDMaxx,
You are in need of a Disassembly & Reassembly of 1903 Springfield and the M1 Grand. AGI has them on Armorer's Course for both. Get back to me and I can show you, because I have them.

I'm not familiar with that, but I wasn't wanting to go on a course per sé.

Well give me a call and I will set a time to show you, By the way I'm Retired. So not trying and sell you something.

If you don't have the Kuhnhausen manual... GET IT.

I appreciate the offer, but i don't see what i will gain from this, other than seeing that you do indeed have the manual

I searched for that name, but didn't see anything that covered the M1903, and only one that covered US semi auto rifles (generic coverage of the Garand?)

Sorry Tony

It's probably a very cool manual from them, and there is nothing to be sorry about, thankyou for letting me know it exists. I'm not stuck unable to do something with the rifle (hasn't even arrived yet) but i wanted a reference for when i need it.

Also, cool looking DVD.

Yeah, actually plenty of good stuff online for the Garand, the 1903 is somewhat lacking in detailed stuff. I was after books of quality for a good reference just in case. Thanks.

Kuhnhausen's volumes cover both Garand (and I'd suspect derivatives like BM59 and M14) in one volume and Carbine the other, no help on 1903 though.

Hey there,
The are not Manuals, they are armorer course on DVD for 1903 & M-1 Grand. They do a complete Disassembly and Reassembly of all 1903 A3 & M-1 Grand. There is a little history and how to do some repairs also. But if you like you can come by and view one of the Armorer courses to check it out and see if this is for you.

this is what i use

M1 GARAND MANUAL | Brownells

 

[Bon Sauvage]

I like this book immensely:https://www.amazon.com/Collectors-Guide-Military-Disassembly-Reassembly/dp/1931464324

The full colour pictures are clear and there are many of them.

 

[F2CMaDMaXX]

Wow, i hadn't considered a multi-gun book, that looks pretty nice, if a little pricey.

The customer pics show just how large and colour the pictures are, i think this is certain worth considering, just a shame i only have two of the listed guns
