"You are viewing a real piece of history. This collector grade Pre-WWII Springfield M1 Garand was manufactured in SEPTEMBER 1940"
Gunbroker listing, seems everything he has is collector grade and all original...
Early Pre-WWII Springfield M1 Garand All Matching! : Semi-auto at GunBroker.com
To bad SA misstamped the barrel 7-46
Everything that seller has is original and numbers matching.
He has a quality hardware carbine that looks like if may have been something nice, but it has a big bogus new stamped cartouche on the stock. That pretty much ruins the chances of anyone who knows much about US millitary firearms bidding on it. I think that term " numbers matching" is used by sellers who troll for suckers who don't know any better. When I see that term used it sends up a big red flag for me at least

Yeah...that collector knew what he had. Too bad the seller doesn't.
I like the "early" DAS stock stamp, the "early" lock bar sight and the "early" butt trap!
That guy is a shyster, little or nothing is correct with those auctions.
"seems everything he has is collector grade and all original..."
Everything he has is Fake grade and Overpriced. To be wrong so many times makes this guy a crook. Gun Broker should not let him advertize if he can't be honest.
I asked the seller to explin what he meant by "all matching", since I noted parts fro several WWII years and a post WWII stock. Here is his answer. "By all matching I mean all matching manufacturer not mixed OEM." :rofl:
Durn! My fingers don't seem to be coordinated with my brain on spelling.

pic 15 has a danish stock with a fake rebuild stamp. I would like to know when Springfield was moved to Denmark! I like the last line in all his "original" auctions. This collector knew what he had!
