Rifle Shooting Techniques: M1 Garand

The link below goes to a declassified WWII era training film on rifle shooting techniques. The rifle used, of course is the M1 Garand. I love the intro to the film where it shows the soldier firing his M1 -- I can feel the reassuring "nudge" his shoulder gets at each shot. Ahh . . . sweet memories of days at the range.



As to its value in teaching shooting techniques, I give this film four stars. I may be prejudiced, though, since on a few occasions when my wife was away, I've been known to fall asleep with my Garand beside me.

Thanks to dlr for sending me this link.
