M1 Garand Tanker conversion?

[My Toy]

If you were going to get a USGI M1 Garand converted to a "Tanker" who would you recommend to do the job?

I second Shuff's.

Shuff's again. If I ever find a junky/cheap Garand, I'm going to send it to them for their "Little G" conversion.

Sounds like a job for a dremmel and YouTube!

I don't think charlie does tankers. Shuffs is the one, but look carefully at his site- he does the mini g not a standard tanker.....

Not sure I understand why someone would willingly do this to a built Garand. If you want to build one, then that's different, but to butcher one is.... well not a good idea in my opinion.

if the barrel is shot out and the oprod is out of spec you are not doing anything that you cannot reverse.

That is true, but I am referring to a good shooting condition Garand.

IMO Shuffs is the go to guy for your build. He has refinsihed several rifles for me and built my BM59. His work and attention to detail is the best. Give him a call with any questions, if he doesnt pick up the phone he will call you back ASAP

The CMP Custom Shop builds Tankers--either on a gun provided or one of theirs:

I believe the op rod gets cut as does the reciever. In that case I do not believe it is reversible.

Tankers the reciver does not get cut. Shuffs has a mod you can do with a magazine, then the reciver is cut
His standard MinG -Tanker only thing different is the op rod, barrel, no receiver modification
