This video focuses on the rare Pedersen Model GY and GX rifles, essentially modified M1 Garand copies developed by John Pedersen. Following his failure in earlier Army rifle trials, Pedersen created these rifles as a final bid for a US military contract. The video highlights their functional similarities to the Garand, including its gas system and rotating bolt, while also pointing out Pedersen's unique modifications such as spiral barrel fluting, stock cooling slots, and an adjustable rear sight drum. The scarcity of these rifles, with fewer than 10 ever produced, is emphasized, along with the excellent condition of the featured example at Rock Island Auction, still packed in cosmoline.
