OTOH, I think I can get a good K31 for around $200, while the
Garand, if GunsAmerica is any indication, cost too much.

So what about rechambering the K31 to .308? Is it commonly
done, maybe sporterized K31s rechambered & ready to go?

I believe you'd have to SHORTEN the chamber, as opposed to reaming it
out. Too much trouble.

Garands are CHEAP. $600 will get you a service grade from the Civilian
Marksmanship Program.
