Also on the double fire:

If you ever so slightly squeeze the trigger to "pull off a round" You can get double and triple firings. This is typical.
The M1 Garand is not a precision type rifle and was never meant to be. Squeeze that trigger a hair bit quicker and then see if you are continuing with the same problem.
