Curious, what's your reasoning for not using the Garand in its original form to begin with & what you hope the conversion will do to allow you to get more use out of it.

I' m a rancher here in north idaho, fullsize garand is awkward on horseback,i was going to cut my M1A down to 16"but the mag is a problem ( scabbard) on horseback, i think the mini g will be perfect, it will be used every day, we will see .
