Wondering if it is a Winnie and he got his gun companies mixed up.

They made experimental M1s, select fire.

I trust RKT's posts concerning weapons but I have never heard of a Remington experimental version of a Garand.

Tom Greeley of Greeley Arms, Cedar Grove, NJ, had a select fire M1 trigger housing assembly made by Remington back in the early 60s.

Maybe very experimental. How is it, after thirty years of reading posts about the Garand I've never heard of a REAL select fire trigger group. Much less a Remington Garand. * Remington did make op-rods for the Garand. Some are marked MN and other's aren't. That's my knowledge about Remington Garands. Y'er never too old to learn something new.

That's a unicorn rifle. We all know there are no Remington marked heels.

Perhaps he thought that since Remington made M1903s they also made M-1 Garands.

Someone could have pranked him?

I took a NIB Jennings and had my wife write (she has better penmanship than I) Gold Cup on it with a gold marker, and pranked a friend with it,

did the same with a NIB FIE revolver and had her write Piethon on it,

Those are really rare.

What is up with people calling firearms by silly names like "Winnie, Remmie, Eddy, Springer etc." ?

it's been a thing for a long while,

and it also drives me nuts,


however, there is also a subset of gun owners and shooters that have no idea what they own,


I've asked people before what they shoot and the common answer is 9mm,,,,

ok, what 9mm,, as in what brand gun,??

9MM, as in 9MM Short, 9MM Largo, 9MM Bergmann-Bayard....?
