The M1 Garand is often judged by modern ideas of accuracy — tight groups and benchrest standards.
That wasn’t how the U.S. Army evaluated rifles during World War II.
The Garand was designed around practical accuracy: the ability for an average soldier to deliver effective hits, quickly and repeatedly, under real field conditions with issued ammunition.
This video looks at what the Army actually measured, how that shaped the Garand’s design, and why that decision changed warfare — even if it challenges how we think about “accuracy” today.
