Hi all,
Mr. John C. Garand test fired a semi-automatic rifle with a 20 rd. detachable magazine in 1920.
I hope this data helps.
Thanks again
Clancy

Geeez, I was going to answer. Was this question up for very long? Is that why you answered it for us?

BTW, is there any pics of a Garand with that 20rnd magazine? That would be interesting to see!

Grashopper,

Ed tries to leave the quizzed for a couple of days and then post the answer so the more impatient of us don't get upset or accuse him of abandoning the post. Don't sweat it; he'll have plenty of quizzes upcoming to keep us on our toes!

Have a go at the WRA production quota quiz. This one will be interesting.
