Langenator Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 (edited) MOLLE Garand Pouches by Coyote Tactical Same guy who made the Trooper vest in this thread. What are the dimensions on that 6 x 2 carrier? (Brownell's site is being a PITA at the moment). It just looks a bit wide for a chest rig to me. I was thinking maybe something either 4 x 2 or 5 x 2. Edit: 8" h x 14.5" w. Tonight I'll have to get the Mrs to bust out the tape measure and see how that translates on my body.

shootingchef Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 (edited) A match that sells out 4 months before the first shot is fired , is a great testament to those who put on that match. Well done! Edited December 9, 2011 by shootingchef Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AustinT Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 That's a CMP service grade that I bought 5-ish years ago. It's a 5.8 mil Springfield which is post WWII, would be more Korean era (might even be past that). Wherever it's from, it didn't get used much, I've put a couple of hundred rounds through it and I think that's more than anyone else. I think we're both looking forward to letting her loose at Best of the West! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mick, That's one sweet looking Garand! At $165 (even 1987 dollars), I'd say that's a damn good investment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRXGunner Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 Have all the apps been processed? I sent mine in around November 18 and still no cleared check. Want to make sure it was received and just waiting for the check to clear. If it hasn't been received I'll send in a new check 2 day mailed and cancel the original. How do I check up on that?

ShootfastRunfaster Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 (edited) Sent mine in earlier this week. It's on. Great looking setup. Not to be a party pooper or anything, but I don't think the Remington rifle sights are a go for WWII division. 6.5.3 WWII Shotgun b. Electronic, optical and rifle-style sights are prohibited I am currently signed up for heavy optic, but WWII is sounding like more fun each day.

The rifle sights are not allowed on your WW2 division shotgun, per the rules. Feel free to appeal to the MD. However, he is the one who put that in there. Regardless, if those rifle sights sit on a rifled slug barrel, then the barrel is a significant disadvantage when shooting birdshot at plates, and that is what most of the shotgunning will be, so you might want to replace it.

Langenator Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 this is the garand clip pouch that brownell;s is carrying. How are you planning on carrying it? It looks like it's about the right size, maybe add more straps to turn it into a chest rig? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P.E. Kelley Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 Yes, this image is that of an M2 (my M2) but my Super Nova wears a similar unit. I believe I know the answer but is ANY rear sight prohibited? I may have to rethink my WWII entry as it would now entail the price of another barrel, or at least removing a perfectly set and zeroed sight Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjs Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 I don't suppose duct taping the sight down for the entire match would be a viable solution. I am in the same boat and and do not want to buy a barrel or have a sight removed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
