Hey, I was bored one evening and made 2 spring M1 Garands from TSD Spring M14s. Super simple and done with household tools and scrap! Although you cannot see it in the picture, I learned that if you take various grits of sandpapaer to the stock and "wood" furniture it gives you more of a grainy effect!

It is still a work in progress to make the gas block and wood furniture look right!

In what way did you convert it to a Garand?

Something for fun, just a plinker! I am still in the process of making a clip latch, proper front sights, and correct the gas tube + block

Its just that I don't see what part is modified to look more like a Garand.
