Bolt has no SA after the drawing number. It has the space between the D and the number and this one is extremely rare, having a short time before the revision 2 bolts came out. The space between the D and the number was deleted when the SA was added to the sequence. That makes this one another of your trove of gas trap parts?

D28287 -1 bolt
From Billy Pyle's book "The Gas Trap Garand" page 121 "Revision one bolts with the legend D28287-1 and D28287-1SA on the same line are extremely rare and seldom encountered, as they had a very short life span in the M1
production sequence before being superseded by the revision 2 (-2). "
Most or almost all of the revision 1 bolts that the collector will find will have the -1 stamped below the drawing number as shown in the photo.
