After more than a 1½-year wait we've got our
Kingston Armory M1 Garand .22 rifles. Built on an all -steel version of the 10-22 that uses 10-22 magazines. The issue mag has a base-plate attached that makes the gun look more like an M1 rifle. It does have M1 sights, and the stock is amazingly like an M1 rifle stock. Looks pretty good so far but we have not shot them as we got them today. I will probably not get to shoot mine before Thursday. The other will likely be shot on Sunday. Serial numbers? 0044 (mine) and 0076.
LOA is 41", barrel is about 23", overall it is about 2" shorter than an M1 rifle. It weighs about as much, but not quite (I haven't weighed it yet). They have scaled it very well to the 10/22 action while maintaining the feel of the full-sized .30 cal M1 rifle.
