My Dec. 1941 Garand

[Joe W]

Had posted these pictures on the CMP site and decided to post here. I bought this rifle in 1991. It is either original or pretty much so or a very good restoration. All parts are correct and match well. All parts show very little use and rifle is not British proofed. I have bought and sold many M1s over the past 30 plus years but this one was a keeper.

What do you see that leads you to suspect it? It looks fine to me. I don't see any of the discrepancies seen on most of the fakes

Latigo 1 - I am sure that was just a joke.
