Marion: Not nigpicking but, in the article on the M-1 Garand has a couple of flaws.

Being a old ww2 dogface this subject is dear to my heart. I own a M-1 rifle and also have done my own handloading for it for many, many years. Aprox. 6,000,000 were

produced (not 4,000,000). The usuall bullet (projectile) was the M-2 Ball. Velocity was about 2800 fps with this 150 gr. slug. The 173 Gr. slug was the Nation Match bullet and velocity was around 2600 fps. (used mainly for match shooting and occasionally, if available for snipers. Also used were the A.P. (black tip round) (Armor peircing) and the

tracer round (red tip). Not to mention grenade launching rounds, blank rounds and a few others. Neeedless to say, the A.P. round was a favorite, when available to me.
