I am new to M1 collecting, but was inspired at the local gunshow when a man had a nice 1.8 SA M1. He told me he bought the gun from the DCM in 1977. The morning of the gunshow an "expert" told him he had a post WWII arsenal rebuilt Garand with a 1947 stamped barrel with an early type rear sight. Stock cartouches were stamped again after the rebuild, so they look double stamped. Until he learned this from the expert, his price was $1400 now it is $2200. Can anyone tell me about this variant and its value? If a decide to buy it, what should I look for?Information
