Hi! I'm new to this forum. Hope to learn lots from you folks!
On the topic of learning....I had a GREAT weekend. My son & I went down near McComb to the Southwest Gun Club. Participated in the M1 Garand Clinic put on by Doug Bowser & his folks. Doug is an encyclopedia of information!
I learned a lot about the Garand. Believe it or not, in '72 I learned on the old M1903 Springfield bolt actions at the Naval Recruit Training Center. A few months later, in the fleet, the armory was stocked with M-14's & M-16's.
We had a great time and the SWGC group were wonderful hosts and coaches! I was surprised I could still punch paper after all these years, but it hurts to get in position nowadays. Obviously my (youngest) son and the other youngsters did quite well!
