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.

Oh well.

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

If I showed up at an NRA target match I'd probably be the
target. Neat rifles though, I'd like to shoot one someday.
