When you load the Garand with heavy bullets and slow powder you should get a Mccann or Schuster adjustable gas screw or a Garand gear vented gas screw (Plug?). This protects the operating rod and allows long range shooting with this rifle. Be warned though, the "ping!!" is addicting and seldom do you just buy one weapon from the CMP.
Have fun with whatever you buy!

Re: Question about Long Range toy
You could spend a thousand bucks and get an M1 Garand SA Service Grade Special. Essentially a brand new 1950's era rifle in 30-06 and first rate peep sights. I liked them so much I bought two!
