I dont understand exact;y what you mean by the above post but
that thread just confirms what I said earlier, only NM garands had timed locks.
I have been collecting, shooting Garands for 20 years, have also built Garands from NOS parts, reaming headspacing installing barrels ,the whole deal. I know the workings of the Garand very well
Just beacuse you are having issues does not change the grade of the rifle. You have a Service Grade that needs some attention
Have you completely dissasembled the rifle to the smallest parts, cleaaned and properly greased the rifle?
A rifle that has heavy parkerizing or not cleaned and greased between the safety and trigger housing can be very hard to engage. Strip down the rifle , look parts over
If you already did strip down the rifle make sure you did not installed the follower/slide backwards
