It's a wartime rifle holder which usually mounts on the lower windscreen.

It is radioactive waste, and it would be best if take it off your hands and store it properly in my jeep. |

Thank you all very much! Unfortunately, I don't have any M1 garands laying around so this was the best I could do to test it out.

Looks like a good fit. Don't forget the small plastic bag on the muzzle.

Larry's picture has the rack mounted the correct way and Brett's is mounted upside down I think but mounting it Brett's way was done as well I think........can someone confirm or deny this? I'm guessing and would like to know...............

Mine is mounted correctly, as they were in a M38. MB/GPW were the other way, but correct for that platform.

Bensinger sells the proper bracket for mounting, although the OPs "Bubba" mount has appeal.
