DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPH US MILITARY MI GARAND RIFLE in a 30-06
Caliber Cartridge
The M1 Garand or M1 rifle is a semi-automatic rifle that
was the service rifle of the U.S. Army during World War II and the Korean War. The
rifle is chambered for the .30-06 Springfield cartridge and is named after its
Canadian-American designer, John Garand. It was the first standard-issue
autoloading rifle for the United States. By most accounts, the M1 rifle performed well.
General George S. Patton called it "the greatest battle implement ever
devised". The M1 replaced the bolt-action M1903 Springfield as the U.S.'
service rifle in 1936 and was itself replaced by the selective-fire M14 rifle
on March 26, 1958.
