OK to shoot CMP shipped M1 Carbine????

I received a rack grade M1 icon

Carbine from CMP icon

. Is it OK to shoot after cleaning without checking the headspace? Does CMP check the headspace before shipping to customer?

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Yes, CMP

has checked the headspace, but should be rechecked if possible.

As a racker I would also inspect the extractor, ejector, and all of the springs for proper functioning and replace as needed..
