Picked up my first Garand a few weeks back. Collector grade 5-55. Looking at picking up some accessory pieces over time to add with it. I'm aware of the usual issued pieces, sling, bayonet etc.
One that caught my eye is the grenade launcher sight and adapter. Prices seem reasonable. Questions are :
How did the Grenade launcher work / what round propelled the grenade ?
(not that I plan on launching any in the future, I have ringing in the ears already )
What other interesting, Garand related collectable pieces have other members found, rarity, price range ?
Any REAL Army surplus stores around that have WWII / Korean war items like this ?
