Assembling an M1 Garand Rifle From Parts

My bullets, let me show you them.

Of course those are cases and not bullets. Cats are notorious for their poor grasp of technical terminology, not to mention typing and English grammar....

First, some warnings

This page is not an authoritative description of how to assemble an M1 Garand rifle.

This page is nothing more than my notes about how I did that. You should not attempt this. You will undoubtedly damage your rifle, destroy your workshop, kill yourself, and do untold other harm up to and including unleashing Gozer and bringing on the apocalypse.

CAUTION: Technical data and information contained herein are intended to provide information based upon the limited experience of individuals under specific conditions and circumstances.

OK, that's enough lawyer repellent.
