Time for a new M1?

I saw on the blog roll last night from Lyle over at Joe’s place that there is finally an M1 Garand UltiMAK rail.  I was ready to start jumping up and down for joy and then the reality set in.  I love my M1, I love it so much I do NOT want to change it.  It was manufactured January of 1944 and the stocks appear to be original. 

The thing is I do shoot that M1, I pull it out for CMP, and I do enjoy having a rifle around with iron sights to practice with.  I would definitely shoot the M1 more if I put a rail on there, I just can’t bring myself to alter a piece of history.  I guess it’s time to add another to the collection.
