Good morning all.

Can you please help me to identify exact drawing number and maker of this barrel fitted in my Danish M1 Garand ?
Thank you.

Hey Bizio, long time no see...I'm not going to be much help here though...I can only read part of that.

VAR barrels are of Danish manufacture. VAR= Vaabenarsenalet= arms arsenal.

Can you read "D6835448" or "D6535448" instead ?
Thank you.

Hi Browningautorifle, yes really long time. I hope all is ok there.
In the second pix from the top I can read the complete drawing number. Can't you ?

I can see the drawing number but it's hard to make out several of the digits. I dug my Danish return M-1 out of the safe and it has D 6535448 with a 7-60 date of manufacture. I assume the drawing numbers will be the same.

Thank you again, vintage hunter.

D 6535448

I tend to go with what Vintage Hunter has found. Makes sense too. Yes, all is well here.

In Danish it is spelled Våbenarsenalet

The DK with the crown stands for "Kingdom of Denmark". I don't know what the stamp that looks like "KOA within the circle is. A proof mark maybe ???
