+1 to what Dave said... except... as I pointed out earlier... the cost involved comes into play when people have mortgages and college kids to consider. I would LOVE a Garand, and/or the M1A1 in 30-06. But an Garand for a Grand...I'm not sure I could justify that. And the Springfields M1A1 in CT? 1700 and up.
