.If these get here it will be a miracle and it will take a long while to inspect and more than likely rebuild these then send out. They will need more staff.

I have always wanted a Garand. I don't know why I haven't acquired one yet, but I will eventually.

I agree this would be great news!

This makes me want a "few" more examples...LOL.

If they are the ones I read about about 10 years ago, they will not be sold through CMP. They were bought by the P government, not supplied as aid, so they will be sold to US importers, same as the Blue Sky imports were.

No those are the mythical Korean Garands. These were MAP and CMP eligible.
