    Only if you don't count all the M1 National Match rifles made after May 17, 1957 as "Garands". Thanks for the photo of that historic rifle.

          not sure how long ago you were here, joe.

          the north fork is getting yuppiefied. (spillover from the hamptons),

          a lot of wineries, hardly any potatoes and kinda crowded all summer.

          greenport's a zoo.

            How did you enjoy your visit. I have been wanting to go there for years. I was a member of Friends of the Springfield Armory and could have gotten a special tour but never made it.
            The trouble is,You think you have time.
