Number one million... https://bulletin.accurateshooter.com...r-one-million/
Actually you could not really put a price tag on that such is it's provenance hopefully it might be put on display if it already isn't I place the USA's Garand alongside the Lee Enfield for a battle proven rifle both won wars.
The rifle number...is one million. The rifle was purchased from Garand's family when he died by NRA president Alan Cors and was in his collection. As far as I know still...
Here's the last sale listed for it. https://www.rockislandauction.com/de...ation-m1garand
While not really worth alot of money, this M1 still has some historical interest as being the first M1 (complete) rifle sent to Winchester in Sept 1938. Winchester was able to test and study this example (as outlined in Canfield's WW2 book on the M1 Rifle). As some point in time during WW2, this rifle was returned to Springfield and rebuilt (to gas port) and issued out to service.
