No way. So, these are U.S. surplus rifles?
Do we have an ffl who is doing a group buy for these?
I think that would be a great idea! I'll be waiting with baited breath to hear if someone wants to pick up the idea.
I don't have the money but I'm thinking about buying one anyway. Do we have an ffl who is doing a group buy for these? Anybody know if these are stamped U.S.?
+1 to what mountainbear said.
I have been digging through other forums since these were mentioned on yet another forum I am on....they are not getting good reviews. Evidently they are very rough and in not very good condition. I haven't seen one myself and was considering getting one but like mountainbear just said you can get one from CMP and know that it has been examined by a competent armorer; plus you can get a field grade garand from CMP for 495.
Just a warning: SOG has a reputation of claiming their guns are in better condition than what you might think. In other words, their "Very Good" might be your "Fair."
This is not a personal experience, but something i read on the Gunboards forum.
The only reason I could see for buying one of these SOG guns is if you needed an action to build a match gun on. The actions should be fine, as should the small parts, but I bet the barrels are sewer pipes and the stocks are birch boat oars...
But like I said, but the gun cheap, buy a new Kreiger barrel, bed a new production Boyd's stock, and you've got a decent rifle...
I kinda hate you for doing this. I read the first couple posts before I saw the date....BRINGING THE DEAD BACK TO LIFE (some people call me @Medic!)
Has anyone seen any good Garand deals out there....checked out CMP....Are we shipping any of those overseas back soon?
I actually clicked on the link searched the site and went back to see if the link wasnt working for other people, before i checked the date. I havent felt my heart drop like that before in my lifeI kinda hate you for doing this. I read the first couple posts before I saw the date....
