my dad's M1a1 - expert may give me theirs opinion?

[Matteo]

my grandfather was there (Sicily and Italy)

I Thank so much the memory of your grandfather for being here!
Some ungrateful people here don't understand what fascism, here, and nazism, spread in europe, were. And don't understand how important have been for us in europe what Allies have done helping us liberating from that. Thanks a lot!

I found the m1a1 for my dad, since my gf owns a weapons shop www.traxarm.it. She tells me what they find and I have some sort of first hand choice. So I went in the shop and disassembled the gun, checked it as much I was able at that time, and then gave the advice to my dad who was walking the "camino di Santiago" in Spain. This is the story how this gun was adopted by the family.

For the m1a1 carbine story itself I have no infos, and I'm really sorry for that. Maybe we can try to think about something together.
It seems original to me, no barrel change or receiver, I mean that the receiver was on that stock since the beginning of the story.
The gun went to Benicia Arsenal in California after the war, then she came back. I can't tell you if it has marking of some europe country on it (every gun must be tried and fired by here in EU and when they do they put a mark on the barrel or receiver), but may be I'll check it out within some days.

That's all I know.

Have a great day!
