Bill Ricca

I see, just a few years ago, a discussion of Bill and his expertise with M1 Garands and 30 Carbines. Anyone know if he is still doing business? Any idea how to contact him?

Or, in lieu of that, anyone have any leads for the M7 grenade launcher sights for an M1 Garand?

The last I talked to Bill it was at a gun show in Harrisburg. He was looking to sell out and retire but I've no idea if he actually has. You might try and find contact information through the Garand Collectors Association as he's active there. https://thegca.org

You might also contact Amherst Military Depot for parts as well. https://www.amherstmilitarydepot.com/Default.asp

As of a late 2018/early 2019, I was hearing that his health was declining and he was selling out. The last "sighting" of Bill that I know of was at a gun show in August 2019. His website is archived at http://www.uscarbinecal30.com/riccahome.html

Larry Babcock, Photo essay of the M1 Garland, is usually at the Chantilly show with the Virginia Gun Collectors Assoc. If you can’t track him down, I’m a member and could probably get a second order connection
