I was issued a M1 Garand in Army Basic Training in spite of what some wags say was a the last of the converted muzzle loader M1's. I shot quite well with it and could hardly wait to get my own when I got out of the service. I got a DCM (CMP) M1 and it looked good enough on the outside but the barrel was poor inside. I put a new NM barrel on it and cleaned up the trigger and polished the gas system to keep the deposits down and allow all the gas to work without impinging on rough surfaces. It shoots twice as good as when I first bought it. My son loves it and once in a while he will let me shoot it. LOL
