Hello, I don't mean to stir and upset people. But it kind of bothers me that people won't acknowledge that the Garand is infact a Canadian designed rifle. I understand the level of patrioitsm and how much success this rifle had, But we cannot deny that John Cantius Garand was indeed Canadian, and he was the one that designed this wonderful rifle.
My favorite pistol is the Colt 1911, I own one proudly and I don't try to convince myself this is a Canadian gun, cause it isn't. The roots of any firearm can't be rewritten. My favorite rifle is the German Mauser Kar98.
Most countries make good guns and their share of bad ones.
The German G43 for example, Or the Canadian Ross rifle of WWI, Or the Italian Carcano series rifles. Or the American M3A1 Greasegun. Nobody is immune to makeing bad guns. But out of respect, we should acknowlege the history and the roots of any firearm made.
