Late 1944 S.A. Garand (almost original?)

[USGI]

Tyler, I usually hang-out on the Carbine Forum, but came over here last night and read through all the recent threads. I'm a "newbie" on Garands and bought mine just a few months ago. I've been trying to figure out what's original and what isn't, just like you. One thing I noticed on your trigger group picture is the hammer spring plunger. I believe yours is the later one like I have. It doesn't straddle the hammer like the originals did. Hope I got this right, and believe I do. Nice Garand! - Bob

Right, the early ones had "Ears" and later didn't.
