Two CMP M1 Rifles: ID lot #s please?

Hello Group,
Received two very clean US M1 Rifles from CMP and would like to know how original each is, in terms of having the correct parts that would have been in each rifle when it left Srpingfield.
(1)5446357 SN receiver, 6535382 SA op rod, 6528287-SA over A16, 6528290 trig. group, barrel SA 11-54
(2)5884165 SN receiver, Same op rod , 6528287-SA over Z2 , Same trig. group,
barrel SA 4-55
Thanks for any responses that can tell me if these parts are correct, or not and if not, which drawing lots should those pieces show on these rifles.
Best,
Steve Ashe

Attached are the two M1 Rifles as they arrived with Winchester trigger groups. I have since replaced those with the correct stamped trigger guard groups. Attachment 21276

Per this website: http://myplace.frontier.com/~vzewegj7/id12.html

(1) Bolt is for 5,9XX,XXX to 5,999,000 range. A little late for the serial# of this rifle. Should be A14 or A15 instead. Very close - some of these guides aren't exactly biblical in their ranges, but you're in the ballpark.
(2) Bolt is for 5,8XX,XXX to 5,900,000 - right on the money!

Otherwise things seem okay to me! Congrats on your rifles :)
