The D65—- should be a drawing number, not a serial number. D6528287 is the drawing number for a bolt.Quote:

Armco is a good guess for A, but nobody knows for sure because AFAIK a list hasn't been found. So we can't completely rule out Allegheny Steel or some other supplier. The list remains one of the elements of Garand history yet to be discovered.
Thank You.
