Springfield Garand. I got it as a Service Grade CMP gun, but it never shot right. Accuracy was terrible and it had the dangerous habit of doubling every now and then. I probably should have sent it back, but instead I sent it to Deans Gun Restorations. Dean put a new Douglas .308 barrel on for me, replaced all the springs, tuned the action, refinished all the metal and fitted a new Wenig stock. When I got it back, it was like a brand new M1. I then added the Turner Slings M1907 sling and a Fulton Armory National Match rear sight aperture. It is the prize of my collection now and shoots like a laser beam.
