The M1 Garand is an extremely iconic rifle from the WWII era and even beyond. The rifle has seen action around the world and is even still used to this day for ceremonial purposes.
This particular version from Marushin takes the tried and tested original M1 Garand style and offers some small modern comforts such as a compensator and picatinny rail space for the mounting of optics, lights, or lasers. In this airsoft gun's base form, it is a rather sleek rifle as it has a shorter overall length compared to the traditional M1. Its Picatinny rail's black finish also gives its a more "tactical" look, similar to some "tacticalized" M14, kinda like Post Malone's personal Garand. On the topic of wood, this rifle also shares the same real wood stock as its more "period accurate" counterparts.
The operation of the Marushin M1 Garand is also quite similar to its real steel counterpart. First, pull the bolt back and lock it in place by pushing the silver tab inside the rifle, next insert gas in the bottom (we do not recommend using green gas, weaker gas like HFC134a or duster gas is much more preferable for the overall longevity on the system). After which, push in the en bloc clip with rounds in it, Powerstroke the bolt, and you get 8 shots before the bolt locks back and the en bloc clip ejects out of the gun with a "Ping", just like the real thing! Although the "ping" is not as pronounced as the real steel, it is still such a joy to shoot it and experience how the real M1 rifle would behave. For more information on how a Marushin M1 Garand works, here is an old video of the 8mm version of the Marushin M1 Garand, but it works the same as the version we have over here:
