I am looking for my dads WW2 Springfield Garand serial 1007815. Can you guys check to see if you might have it. I have the letter he wrote home telling of getting his new Garand. They were told to name their Garand. He named his Ann after his girlfriend back home.
Did you ever see this information sheet from CMP forums? If you follow down to the serial number, it's there. Garand Serial numbers listing [Archive] - CMP Forums
Hi,
I checked on the de-militarized list and it wasn't there, so may still be out there.
Good Luck
I take it you didn't look at the list I published a link to, it shows it being privately owned in '09...specifically.Quote:

Great Story on a similar quest.

Also checking the website the listed owner of the OPs rifle is still active (was last on in early March)
I have your post from long ago on this ser. no. It's a long shot. It's lottery odds, so to speak.
