Revision 11 follower
I was told that the follower in my Winchester Garand is SA not Winchester because it is marked with a serifed "11" and there is no known examples of an actual Winchester follower marked with a non-serifed "11" although the books say that Winchester used them. Is this correct?

WRA 11 followers are not seen very often. Can you post a close up side view of the follower for idenification purposes?

Pics I needed are in the first post, you either posted them after I did or somehow I missed them
Anyway, first off I am no expert. From what little I know that isnt a WRA . It has beveled cuts at the base so would be a SA
Just my opinion

early Winchester and Springfield
Early Winchester and Springfield operating rod catches had more noticeable differences.
Scott Duff's "The M1 Garand: World War 11" has a Winchester data sheet on page 263 on Winchester rifle s/n 2481387 the follower is marked 11, you would need to find out if it is a Winchester or Springfield Attachment 39395Attachment 39396
