I was 14 when my best friend's dad got an M1. he was afraid to work the action at all due to his fear of M1 thumb. my best friend's grandpa was a WWII vet, and so is mine, and I'd never done it before this, but I'd seen my grandpa do it countless times. palm the handle, push follower down with thumb, move thumb out of the way while keeping pressure on handle, and finally let fly the handle. was like instinct the first time I did it. best friend's dad was pretty amazed. his grandpa did it the same way, just as mine. his grandpa passed away years before this happened, but I was lucky enough to have mine, and still do. have to show everyone that comes over and sees the collection how to do this now, because you can't be a true gun enthusiast without a little respect and admiration to the M1 Garand.

My dad served in Germany during the Korean War. He once explained to me the “danger” of loading the M1, but now I can actually see what he meant. Thanks for the video.

Back in the mid 80's I had my dad's M1 at a range not really thinking about anything other than having fun with various weapons. I got to the M1 and emptied the clip with the associated sound of freedom. An elderly gentleman walked over from a couple of tables down almost in a trance. I was 19 so it really didn't register what was happening. Turns out the guy was a Korean war vet and that's what he obviously carried. It was also obvious that while we were in Virginia, his mind was elsewhere. He handled that rifle with a reverence that few would understand. He fired off a clip and was borderline tears.

Not everyone got attached like that. But some people, these rifles... for them, it was their only comfort in a world that had fallen apart around them. Beautiful pieces, even more beautiful stories behind them. If you've never at least felt the melancholy feeling that comes with thinking about that, you'll never be able to appreciate those stories.

Just a thought... If I was in action, armed with a Garand, and I was so low on ammunition that I was picking up individual rounds off the ground, and loading them, piecemeal, into the clip... I'd be worried about the overall situation I was in. Obviously, though, you can only keep fighting, with what you've got. Your father was more of a bad ass than myself, or any of us, will ever be.

Appreciate the info. It's all the more special when it comes from an ancestor or parent. My grandfather served in Africa and Italy and even met Ike. The general sat down right next to grandpa in the field and started asking him how the war was going; sorts of questions an enlisted man wouldn't ask. That's when grandpa looked at the newcomer and realized that he, a sergeant, had been shooting the breeze with a man with stars on his helmet. Just one of many stories from the field, like how the local tribesmen would sneak up behind you at night and check your boot lacings: if you tied your boots like an Italian or German, you got your throat cut.

He was a Supply Sergeant to my understanding and I don't know of any combat stories. Apparently, according to my father's retelling of the stories, the tribesmen, (Arabs I think), would surround an encampment at night and look over the soldiers shoulders. Apparently they were familiar with the differences between Allied and Axis footwear and in the glow of the fire would choose to either kill or announce themselves based on lacing style. One would say, "American" and the encampment would about jump out of their skins, realizing they were surrounded, as if by ghosts. Other than that, one story was of how the unit was ordered to dig in, but the ground was so hard that the men just disturbed the top of the ground enough to say they had "dug in". That same night the Germans began the longest artillery barrage of the campaign, if not war, and by morning the men were using ladders and buckets, they had dug so deep. The last bit I can remember was the culture shock of Italy, were grown men and women alike didn't use out houses or toilets, but if they had to go in this particular town, the citizens would just squat in the gutters next to the roads, right in front of you. This practice probably doesn't continue today, but a professor of mine was from Milan and noted how primitive or corrupt much of Europe is relative to America. Only so much has changed.

Moe Ali Jaber Our American soldiers DID fight for our freedom. If America had stayed out of World War Two history would be very different than it is today. Eventually the Nazis and perhaps Imperial Japan would threaten our national security. We should be grateful that Our Nation would risk it's young men to save Mankind from tyranny.

Thank you for passing along the knowledge your father handed down to you.

My grandpa was a WW II veteran, fought against italians & germans with the hellenic army. As i was told by my dad, he brought back home his rifle, manlicher sopenaouer, he considered trustworthy, more than people.He did not like war, always told me it is a bad thing, but you need guns to protect yourselve and your loved ones.

Greece fought against Italy fm oct 1940 till apr 1941.On apr 1941 nazis invaded greece.Greeks fought heroically for mire than a month, before the front was dropped.My grandpa had to walk from north birders to his home, abt 400 km, most if them carried their weapons back and hide it in order to use in during resistance later.Regarding ammo, as he told me they were kind if short, so the greek army usually issue them abt 200-250 rounds of manllicher sopenaouer 7.8mm.They had to take most of their ammo and weapon from the equipment the italian left back when they retreated.

Such a cool gun. I want one someday.

Very informative. Thanks to my army vet father I have enjoyed firearms since grade school. My father used to have a garand, loved it very much, I recall firing it once. Ever. Thought I'd refresh my memory on the loading process.

Great vid, my grandpa was in ww2 and he wanted to be a paratrooper but he had flat feet causing him to walk with the tanks. He was also a radio man. He was shot in the radio and it electrocuted him, he was also shot against the side of is face almost hitting his eye. He told my dad a story saying how it was winter and him and some guys went into a farm house basement and found a wine cellar. While they were drinking the and Germans came in and instead of fighting, they drank with each other. The Germans got so drunk they passed out and because it was cold, they stole the socks off the Germans.

Thanks for the education. I have the Italian version of the M1 and some of what you said will help me with using my rifle.

Great video sir, thank you for sharing your knowledge about this amazing rifle. And a thank you to your father for his service in defending this country

The sound of the clip flying out: iconic. Your Dad is a U.S. hero and thanks for his service. People like him is why the U.S. is revered.

Thank you for a very good video. My dad served in the Navy during the Aleutian invasions on an attack transport driving a landing craft. I heard many stories. He taught my brother and I gun safety at a very young age. My best memories with his Garand was on the 100 yard range where I lay prone on the shooting bench. Many of the WWII vets would gather and ask him "Hey, are you really going to let the kid shoot that?" "Sure, watch this. Go ahead... ". Then I would load it, take aim, and put every round in the black. Some guys watched with spotting scopes. After the last ping, I really enjoyed watching those guy's jaws drop. I really amazed them. That was in 1959 when I was 6 years old! And then it was my job to strip it and clean it, reassemble it every time we got home from the range. Grampa gave my son his 1911 .45 pistol just before he passed away in 2002. I know you and I will never forget our dads.

thank you sir...and thank you for your dad service during the war,,

Excellent video. Thanks for sharing and thanks to your Dad for his service. I just finished a book about the war in the Pacific. It's unimaginable what those heroes went through.

God bless your father for his service to this country :)

You're the only one shooting? And the enemy is not shooting? So they can hear the sound of your clip exiting the rifle. In a shooting war there is a lot of NOISE going on! Unless all your comrades run out at the same time and the enemy knows when you are going to 'ping', they stop firing just before the 'ping' so they can hear the 'ping'? What an absurd scenario.

@@glennthomas7435 yeah in a big battle there's a lot of noise, but in a close quarter skirmish, let's say in the same building/trench, the enemy could have heard the ping. In a 1vs1 scenario, that it was very uncommon, but not implausible in WWII, the ping was clearly a disadvantage. But being the best standard rifle in the war quite compensated this problem.

It's nice to see an M1 Garand video where the person actually know his way around the rifle. Well done sir.

My favorite sound is "the bark" of the ole "06". Thanks for making this fine instructional video. God bless our Veterans.

I’ve always loved this rifle. The first time I ever saw it was in Jaws when Brody used one to shoot the scuba tank. It’s the rifle I covet the most out of all other rifles. And who could forget the iconic ping. The definition of unforgettable.

3:24 the best sound u will ever hear

My father in law, a Cajun from Louisiana, also served in the 77th, which was the "Statue of Liberty Division", as it was organized for WWI of draftees mostly from New York and New Jersey. It was the first WWI division made up of draftees, and the seventh division sent to France in WWI. Regiments from the 77th made up the famous "Lost Battalion" on the western front. They sustained over 10,000 casualties in WWI. It was deactivated after the war, and reactivated for WWII, with the same 'Statue of Liberty' patch. The 77th would sustain over 9,000 casualties in WWII. My Father in Law, joined the division in the Philippians after the Japanese were defeated there. His first combat was Okinawa. He was a BAR man, so your M1 video doesn't apply to his experience. He was awarded the Bronze Star V, and the Purple Heart, wounded at the Maeda Escarpments, (Hacksaw Ridge) of the recent movie fame. He didn't know the name of the place then, he told me he didn't know were he was the whole time he was on the island. He learned all these names reading about it as an old man. He never used the term 'Hacksaw Ridge." He remembered climbing the rope latter they got from the Navy to fight. Then those who were still alive, climbed down for relief. He also told me of sharing a tent in the Philippians with a Seventh Day Adventists, who he remembered some guys making fun of, and who later was awarded the medal of honor, named Desmond Doss. He told me this information in the 1990's way before the famous movie. The two met at the D-Day Museum in New Orleans at the opening of the Pacific theater. Doss was older and very feeble, his wife or companion did all his talking. Maybe Doss worked on my FIL when he was wounded. My father in law's company was held in reserve for a long time on a troop ship, the battle had been going on for weeks (he believed) before he was sent ashore. He remembered sneaking on deck because it was so hot and crowded below and he was afraid of drowning in a sinking ship. He saw first hand the Kamikaze attacks and was very relieved to get ashore, although he didn't know what he was getting into. Since his company got to the fight so late, their job was to patrol for bypassed japs on their way to the front to join the rest of the division; which is where he earned the Bronze Star. They found a large group of bypassed jap soldiers, who were apparently feeling unusually safe standing outside of the mouth of a cave. He and another BAR man were ordered to jump out from hiding and kill as many as they could before they could retreat back into the cave. Which is what they did, and he described a horrible scene of those big 30.06 rounds hitting bodies from close range, as they shot from the hip, reloaded, closed and fired some more. He said the jabs were tripping over themselves, body parts, blood and the dead and wounded. They closed to the mouth of the cave, standing among the carnage, and fired into the darkness, when a large explosion from within blew them both on their asses. He cried everyday in his later years reliving those horrors. At the time we had not heard of PTSD. He had never told anyone the details of those days, not even his sons. I think he told me, because when I entered the family I was on active duty in the Navy. He also never got anything from the VA after his discharge, although he was recalled for Korea, but not sent to war when they found out he still had jap shrapnel in his back. I thought you might like to hear a little of the 77th.
