I've read all the posts on the M1 Garand on this site and have benefited from their insight. I would love to hear more on how it fairs in a skirmish and some direct comparisons to the Tanaka KAR 98K.
I've owned and played with the 98K as a primary for several years now and it has served me well in most all games and situations. It definitely has its weakness' but if terrain and team mates are used right they can be overcome.
I've found the range and power to be incredible, though slightly lacking in consistency, and enough to give just a slight enough edge to give an advantage over AEG's to make the hit in ammo and fire capacity worth it. What I've always wanted was a semi auto version of the 98K. That extra shot or two could really make up for the gap in consistency and could make a fearsome weapon.
Would owners or users of both the Tanaka 98K and the Garand say they perform similarly? Range, consistency, accuracy, etc. Does it feel as rock solid as the 98K? Similar weight and heft? If anyone has experience with both please share....
thanks

Would you say they feel or perform roughly the same?
