Overview:

Marushin's M1 Garand is an excellent airsoft replica of the iconic World War II rifle. Despite being an airsoft gun, Marushin has done an impressive job of recreating the look and feel of the real M1 Garand. The rifle features realistic trademarks and a functional loading mechanism that adds to the overall authenticity of the replica. The M1 was a first of its kind in the GBB world, its hard to describe just how cool it is watching the slip eject when out of ammo, or the heavy recoil. The M1 came in every flavor imaginable, from different types of wood, to the barrel length, and of course as marushin does: 6mm and 8MM

BBs.

Quality:

The quality of the Marushin M1 Garand is exceptional. The rifle has a solid and durable feel, and its construction is top-notch. The wood stock and metal receiver are very well made, and the finish is excellent. The rifle has a nice heft to it, making it feel great in the hands, and the included sling adds to the realism of the replica. As mentioned before, the rifle features a full wood stock and a cast metal receiver and internals, all of which are fairly well made and will hold up over time. While some users have reported issues with the internals, specifically the nozzle, I have never experienced any problems, and all of my Garands have run flawlessly.

Marushin made a couple of types of clips: an all-plastic clip, as well as cast magnesium and CNCed aluminum clips. Not many were made of the last two, so their prices are very high compared to most magazines.

Internals and Operation:

The Marushin M1 follows the classic Marushin idea that Piston equals good. The rifle is a scaled-up model of their Uzi GBB and CZ75 shell ejecting (non-maxi). The gas is stored in a reservoir in front of the trigger guard under the file. Upon the hammer being released, gas is expelled from the tank and into a large piston which is responsible for Blowback. Gas also flows into the nozzle and propels your BB. a small detail id like to add is that marushin actually added the feature of a camming bolt, meaning when your bolt goes in and out of battery, is does actually rotate like the real thing. If out of ammo, the clip will eject and the rifle will lock back. Disassembly is identical to the real M1, and the replica shares quite a few parts.
