That is pretty cool.

I remember some guy over on the CMP forums once converted a 1903 Springfield into a .22LR, cool project also.

Going to keep an eye our for junk M1 Garand parts now for a future project like this.

I would love to have one of those, especially one that looked that good, but I could never put it together myself. Sigh.

You aren't supposed to encourage me. I get in enough trouble by myself! LOL

But thanks for that link. Doesn't appear to be as nice in the OP, which is what I was hoping for.

These are neat rifles! They might be a bit heavy, though.

Just a thought. There wouldn't be any problem using a nylon cast receiver in Garand style and running the bolt directly in the nylon as the Remington Nylon 66 did. It would be a lot cheaper and lighter. The "wood" could be brown plastic and the whole rifle would be cheaper and lighter. That could make someone their first million dollars. I'd sure buy one!
