    Large military training weapons

    I have seen photos of a Garand and a Browning auto rifle. Are there any other training aids out there? The Garand was in a large wooden box with dummy rounds. What are the prices for these?

    read a thread somewhere on one for sale and the guy was fishing for prices,

    there were Training aids for just about everything, used to set up next to a guy that had many of them,

    from 50 cal M2 down to a M16

      A few short decades ago I use to see the M1 Carbine and BAR cut-a-way enlarged training props for sale on GB and I think ebay. They were cheap because, duh, of what use were they? Often they were incomplete. Now they are very scarce and expensive.

      Personally, I have better things to collect but to each their own.

        manual for M1 Garand training aid

        found a manual years ago for the large oversized M1 rifle training aid. this manual
        was printed by the US Navy for the National Guard. i understand this manuals are
        difficult to findP1010046_0041.jpgP1010047_0042.jpgP1010048_0043.jpgP1010049_0044_1.jpg

            I had a friend that found some of the large eight round clips loaded, for sale at SARCO a few years ago. They
            look almost like 50 BMG cartridges
