Title: My gaudy Garand Post by madsenshooter on Mar 5th, 2019 at 7:50pm
Here's a few pics of a project I been working on, scoping my Garand. I plan to shoot it in the unlimited class at Camp Perry this year. I can barely hold it up, and not for long! Scope is a 4X Tasco Pro-Class pistol scope, made in Japan. Fine tapered crosshair with dot reticle, 1/4 minute target adjustments. It is very heavily built. Can't wait to give it a try, supposed to be warmer later in the week, I'll get my annual range permit from ODNR today. The scope just barely works for me and one set of glasses I got from the VA. I've another set of rings coming that will get the scope about 1/8-3/16" further forward that'll help get the eye relief right for me. Cheap 3-7 variables with less eye relief work better, but the limit on a variable is 4.5x! I found a gas lock nut on ebay that allows one to use AR15 30 caliber muzzle devices and I happened to have one to try. Looks a bit tidier than my repro pronged flash hider.
