I can see why. A Garand is a fine rifle. I love to hunt with mine but with the stock gas setup you have to be careful with ammo and at that you're limiting performance. I want to get one of these adjustable gas plugs too. If you're worried about keeping it original just keep the old stock parts in a safe place and if you ever want to put it back in original condition you've got the parts right there. That way you can hand load hotter ammo and different weight bullets without worrying about damaging the op rod.
