Casless ammo for the M1 Garand ??

Gentlemen,
While working in the M1 Garand files I ran across two files that cover a DREAM that the US ARMY has being looking at for a long time. Caseless AMMO. If Ordnance got it back then maybe there would be NO PING during WW2. READ the files and check the dates. The answer file from Ordnance gives us good data. I hope you enjoy.
If I post wrong again mod's I am sorry
Going to need help real soon guys.


If you need a better copy email me.

even with caseless ammo, the rifle would still need a clip, or a magazine. not that it really matters, as the "ping" was, is , and always will be a non issue.

Gentlemen,
My point was that Ordnance was talking about caseless ammo that early. There were no plans for any US ammo. It just seems that all the work that they are doing now might have been done a long time ago.

Thanks again
Clancy
ps Remember, Germany during WW 2 had the formula for synthetic fuel???
