I just completed a project I’ve been working on for quite awhile now … the M1 Garand Accuracy Job Manual. It is complete step-by-step instructions on how to build a sub minute M1 Garand. From the beginning, I aimed this book at the do-it-yourselfer. I also aimed it at those who do not have a shop full of equipment. I show you how to do the M1 Garand Accuracy Job almost completely on your kitchen table (if your wife will let you). Lots of pictures go with the text. I think You will like it.

Now that this project is complete and available for sale, I am starting on an M1A manual. This blog is the forum I will use to answer any questions my customers may have regarding the manual. Please leave a comment if there’s anything in the manual that you are confused about. The M1 shown below used to make this manual is also available for sale. Call Clint Fowler at (540) 6723-0357 if interested.

Now available! The Clint Fowler M1 Garand Accuracy Job Ebook.

Includes tightening rear sight and stoning trigger, glass bedding, op-rod alignment, gas cylinder modification and fitting, hand guard modification and fitting, op-rod guides, & adjustable gas plug. Do it yourself without special tools, from start to finish. Shown below is the actual gun that was used in the manual and the end results. Also shown are the test groups fired when the accuracy job was complete. Price for the Clint Fowler M1 Garand Accuracy Job Ebook: $34.95. Immediate download upon payment.


The group on the left was shot first. The elevation dispersion of that group told me the gas system needed more volume. I adjusted the set screws inside the gas plug outward 1 ½ turns and shot group 2. It is .910” wide and about 1/2” tall. The horizontal dispersion of group 2 told me my first adjustment was a little too much so I moved the set screws back in by about 1 hour of turn. That will cut the width slightly. You can tell I have tested a few guns cant you?
