I posted some Colts on here for sale with the excuse that I was "thinning the herd". Well, best intentions of mice and men... On our recent family trip to Ohio/Indiana to visit the wife's family, I escaped one day to go browse at the CMP store in Camp Perry. I spent all my money

The H&R Garand (with all new wood) and the Kimber target 22 followed me home.
Now I have even more guns I haven't had time to fire yet. Must rectify this soon.
The Browning 1895 .30-'06 came from 2ndovc. We had a nice visit over pizza and beer.
Not sure when I'll get back up that way, so I wanted to go ahead and get a Garand. I'm no collector so I hope I got a good shooter. The bayonet came from the wife's grandpa and his Army Combat Engineer service in Guam, Philippines, and Okinawa in WW II. The wood is missing from the other side of the handle. I'd sure love to find or make a replacement grip.
I'll soon be asking for tips/information about reloading for the Garand and finding or making grip panels for the bayonet. Also, the wood seems to have only a light stain. What's the best way to finish it? Tung oil?
