    As FALover explains, there are many things to consider... further to that I just had a long conversation with Tony and he confirmed that the receiver is different as well. The original Garand receiver would need to be milled out in order to accept the magazines and would then not work with the clips.

    So... I asked him to give me a less expensive option and he came up with the idea to take the used .308 barrel and combine it with some of the other usable parts from the BM59 kit and then sub in whatever else would be required to make it all work.

    When all is said and done, we can offer those kits for $649 USD... still not inexpensive, but much better than the #1 parts kit which sells for $1049. Keep in mind that the #1 kit is '06 and this less expensive kit will be in .308. Also, the #1 kit has a brand new barrel where this one would be used. All the parts on the #1 are reparked with refinished furniture. These .308 kits will possibly be a mixture of original finishes and will not have the refinished wood.

    In any case we will get .308 kit listed on our site shortly so it will be available to purchase. Keep in mind that they won't be arriving in BC now until the Sept 5th import.

    I have been mulling over the idea of a M1-BM 59 hybrid just to get that Italian look. If all goes as hoped I will be looking into one of these kits!

    I had a fellow from Fort Mac drop in this week (he was visiting family) and we barreled, finished reamed and assembled his Garand. In a Deans Gun Restoration stock it is a beauty! I forgot to take pics but he is one happy M1 owner!

    Well, I'm in for one kit. Just ordered it. I'll likely stash the other receivers. This should be a great winter project!

    Oh, I was looking for the mixmaster one - the Winnipegger Special for $649. I thought you were talking about that one being up.

    Sorry for the delay in getting this set up...
    Here's the link to the 308 parts kit: https://www.aztecharmory.com/garand-parts-p-33736.html

    At this point these kits will come in on the Sept 5th import.
    Let me know if you have any questions.
