Howdy Gang,
I'm a pretty small guy and for years I've just put up with trying to keep my left hand in place on the forend of my garand. Of course in the manual of fire they show these guys with a 1:1 ape index that can reach the swivel and still have a bent elbow. If I slide my hand to the swivel and shoulder the stock the muzzle is in the dirt and my arm is straight!
I know in .22 match stuff I can use a sliding sling swivel or a hand stop in the inlaid track and actually get my arm to relax. Is there any such aftermarket device for the M1? If so, is it legal in 80 shot Garand matches?
Any info or suggestions appreciated as I'm girding my loins to try some high power again after lo those many years.
TIA,
Alan D.
