    Nice M1 and one of the few times that the word "clip" is used correctly, in the instructions. :D

    I thought the way they said deplorable expansion of vocabulary in many lanquages was hysterical. And not a digit but a diploma!!

    Great looking rifle dutchs.
    M1 thumb, hehehe. It reminds me of winchester 1897 knuckle. You know, that is the loss of the top of your thumbs knuckle when chambering a round on a 1897 winchester shotgun.
    Why is it that firearms produced during that era caused the loss of skin and blood when using. LMAO!
