1942 SA M1 Garand Range Report - with Garand Gear Gas Plug

[jeep78]

Reloading for a M1 is the Pandoras box of reloading. I would think you would not need this plug is you load powder on the light side.

Garand safe reloading data is well known. If you reload, this plug is not needed. For simple Garand safe hunting ammo, just look up "Mexican Match", easy and done using mil-surp ammo.

For those that do not want to fool with reloading, this type plug works well.

You gonna need a bayo!

Well since this does away with the ability to use a bayonet I guess I will duct tape my Arisaka bayonet to it, so nobody can get within 3ft of my muzzle without getting sliced.

Thanks for the report! I may need one of these.

He shoots a mix of factory and reloads, so he was trying to make up a recipe that would work without having to swap the plug in and out. He was afraid he'd forget and leave it out when he switched from reloads to commercial ammo.
