Shooting Saturday and was clicking right along and then about the second shot out of the third clip, the rifle doubled. In all my years I've never had a Garand double. After that it kept shooting without any noticeable problems. Put an additional three or four clips through the rifle and took it back to a table. Walked away from it and when I returned I noticed a large crack in the stock. It went from the rear center of the receiver, down the right side of the rifle and forward to the rear of the trigger guard. There was no crack when I first started shooting it.
Question is: Did the double cause the crack, or was the crack already there and caused the doubling of the rifle? I never noticed the crack until well after shooting, about twenty minutes.
Anybody got any experience like this?
