    T PAX marked gas plug ...correct for ?

    Guys can you just confirm that a T PAX is indeed correct for a WW2 M1icon Garand..then if it is one of the WW2 makers..is it correct for a 2.5million Springfield ?

    Regards

    Not WWII

    The actual time period the T-PAX screws were used is unknown but they definitely were not used during WWII. They are post war screws and most likely were replacements used after 1959 rather than used on any original Garands.

    Thanks

    A million thanks Latigo1..so this can go straight back to the seller who advertised it/sold it as a WW2 part.

    Incidentally...does anyone have the definitive list of WW2 makers ..and what should my 2.5 million Springfield have on it

    Kind Regards and thanks again
