Details and Specifications

Would you like to shoot your GARAND more, but have trouble seeing the sights?  Now this ever-popular war horse can now be outfitted with the latest sighting technology, thanks to the unique design of the Mini-Scout-Mount ™Garand.  It installs in minutes so you can easily and securely mount red dot sights or a pistol scope for faster target acquisition and better peripheral vision while shooting. You can easily install optional accessories to mount tactical flashlights, lasers, sling swivels, etc.  Get the most out of your GARAND and enjoy shooting it more!

The Mini-Scout-Mount ™Garand is specifically designed and guaranteed to fit US Military Standard M1-Garand rifles.  Our mounts will fit and function properly on many of the “TANKER” versions, but often require some fitting.  It will also fit many of the BM-59 and BM-63 rifles.  Click on the BARREL ID Tab for more information on these models.

IMPORTANT!

The Mini-Scout-Mount ™Garand is specifically designed for a drop-in fit on US Military Specification, Standard Weight barrels. The Critereon barrels (often found on CMP Garands) are standard GI specs and our mount fits them fine. It will NOT fit a heavy barrel (usually a match after-market barrel).  Our mount can be modified by a competent machinist to fit the heavy contour Match Garand barrels.  See the INSTALL tab for more information.

These mounts will fit and function properly on many of the “TANKER” versions, but often require some fitting. 

BM-59 and BM-63 rifles are Italian copies of the GARAND and most will accept our mount. However, on some units the mount body will require some fitting.  See the INSTALL tab for more information

Installation 

The Mini-Scout-Mount ™Garand is specifically designed for a drop-in fit on US Military Specification, Standard Weight barrels.  It will NOT fit a heavy barrel (usually a match after-market barrel).  However it can be modified by a competent machinist to fit (this does NOT include barrels made by Krieger).  

These mounts will fit and function properly on many of the “TANKER” versions, but often require some fitting.  Note that every “TANKER” is essentially a custom built rifle. On some the operating rod will drag on our barrel clamp, binding it and interfering with the function of the rifle.  This can usually be remedied by filing off a little of the barrel clamp material just where the operating rod drags.  On a very few “TANKERS”, the drag of the operating rod against the clamp is so severe that it cannot be modified enough to make it work.  REMEMBER, before you start filing that if you modify the clamp or any part of the mount, you will void the warranty. 

BM-59 and BM-63 rifles are Italian copies of the GARAND and most will accept our mount.  However, on some units the mount body is too long to fit between the handguard retainer ring and the receiver.  This can usually be fixed by grinding or filing off a small amount of material from the back of the mount body.  REMEMBER, before you start filing that if you modify the clamp or any part of the mount, you will void the warranty.
