Hello! New here, Question on possible M1 purchase.

[Joe W]

It talks to me ,and it tells me that all of its parts groups have been together as one for along time. It could be all original in my opinion. Buy it!

It tells me that it has a cut op rod, post war rear sights, mid 43 to mid 1944 trigger housing, long fork follower rod, late war poppet valve gas cylinder lock screw and a few other things that indicate that it is not only not "original" but also not correct. Still a very nice DCM sales rifle with what, most likely, is the original barrel, which is what the original poster "EarlB" is interested in. I agree with "Wulf", "if the price is reasonable", buy it.
