As it states, general discussion.
I just today acquired a M1 born in December 1943 i believe. I always wanted one to pass down to my grandson. I am so blessed, however, I am M1 ignorant to the max.
I'll be getting better acquainted in time, but will have questions so don't laugh too loud. I'm going to start out with:
1. Any good technical sites?
2. Any tech books for download?
3. Any good surplus part sites?
4. I saw on the internet someone mentioned making changes to the buffering to prevent modern ammo from damaging the weapon? T/F
5. Cast boolits function 0k in M1? T/F
6. What factory works for you?
In other words, any help info is appreciated, not going to the range until I get to know her much better.
