You AR guys need to learn how to diversify…
I want to shoot my 1945 SA (CMP) M1 Garand. I think I’d be shooting 2-3 times as much handgun as people shooting mag fed 7.62x51 rifles would. Since the rifle would at most would ever have 8 rounds in it.
Boom…Boom…Boom…Boom…Boom…Boom…Boom…Boom, PING!
That’s gonna be a lot of transitioning to secondary. To keep in the spirit I’d shoot a 1911. Yeah the CMP price on the LC and Greek .30-06 isn’t too bad.
I would be willing to bring and loan out whatever I could. As of now I’m assuming that I would be shooting my DSA SA 58 “carbine” which means that I could loan out an M1A SOCOM16, a standard M1A and an M1 Garand.
Dude, you need a Vickers CAS sling and an Aimpoint on that Garand! :eek:
Naw, I’m old school sometimes!
Yeah, me too.
Well then I am out of this one. Let me know when a Carbine course opens up or pistol course opens up.
I might be able to come up with a few loaners.
Gents - how about we reduce the ammo needed to 600 rds of rifle ammo for this class - 300 rds a day of 7.62/30-06 is enough for anyone regardless of cost
I will see if I can drag up some exotic/rare 7.62 weapon for the class to check out

I wish I could go back in time and kick my past self for not buying more of that awesome Danish M1 Garand ammo that some distributors had. I bought a couple of crates and the ammo is so good I am afraid to shoot it.
Live and learn.
You’re not kidding…
The CMP greek ammo price is quite good.
That leaves one question…can we actually run a Garand in this class?
I can loan a Garand and an M1A. I’ll shoot my FAL.
M_P
Anyone have an FAL for sale or know somewhere to purchase one? Thanks
FYI - The rifle ammo requirements for the Battle Rifle class have changed to 600 rounds as per LAV. He feels this is more than enough rounds and makes it easier on everybody.
I wish I was closer to Virginia…
Larry, good idea on the ammo…I can’t wait for a class like this.
Cameron, man, fly on in. We might have a Canadian coming in for the last AK class of the year.
I might be interested if my schedule and funds allow for it. It would give me a chance to wring out my FAL. Please keep me posted.
Count me in for the Battle Rifle class, just let me know when and where.
I’m for it. As far past the 1911 class as possible.
No idea how the AR-10 will do in a structured environment, but we’ll give it a go.
I would pass out trying to move my AR-10 for that long. Hmm, maybe this is the time to buy the M1a tanker off of my neighbor. So much fun stuff, so little money.
