Field Grade CMP SA 11-44

Well I received my M1 Garand from the CMP today. I sent an order with a Sticky that said " send me something cool" I also added a 50 dollar donation as I believe in the CMP's mission. Anyway, here is what I got. Out of the box I noticed Lock Bar sights. Next was the barrel that read 11-44. It gages a 2+ both ways. Serial number 3.2 mil matches 11-44. Overall I am very happy. All parts are SA from what I can tell but not sure on the drawing numbers for originality. That is what you guys are for right? Here are some pictures.

Safety is SA 11
Hammer is SA 7

Looks like that 50 dollar donation paid off. That looks like a nice service grade.

Looks like the GI handed it right to you, just enough wear to look good.

Nice rifle makes me want to buy another one.

you mean $50 bribe? A donation is when $$$ is sent separate of a rifle order

Nice to still be able to buy a nice WW2 rifle, the operating rod is post war and it is still easy to find a late un-cut WW2 operating rod

Olando,
I see you are not a contributing member. maybe if you send $50.00 to help keep this web site going and not be a freebee we could all take you comments more seriously.
JMHO,

would that be a bribe to let me stay or a donation?

Let's keep it pleasant, guys. We all come here to to get away from the poop of the world. Let's keep it friendly in here. Thanks!

Post like this make me want to spend money, nice rifle.

Orlando,

I know it won't be a bride or a donation. Because I know you are not going to contribute to the web site. Please proof me wrong.

Yes you are right about one thing

Very similar to my 11/43 I purchased a couple of months ago at the Anniston store. Great grab!
