Hi all. I'm new here and I'm also a proud new owner of a Winchester 1944 M1. Beautiful rifle which I'll be breaking in at the range this weekend. I'll try to remember to come back and post a few pics.

Well sent the requisite forms in yesterday for a SA Service Grade and can of M2 Ball from CMP.

Iron_Colonel · 05-12-2009, 02:59 PM

Excellent. Hopefully it will come quickly, but I think you may be in for a wait. Thats how I did my Garand, but I ordered 2 can so the ammo. They sure are nice rifles. Dead nuts too.

texnmidwest · 05-12-2009, 05:59 PM

I did the same early this month. Ordered an H&R with two cans of ammo. wait..wait...wait...wait...wait...wait...

Baconbits · 05-18-2009, 11:01 PM

HRA SG is here. Serial 5,508,xxx. I'll post pictures after I get all the cosmoline off.

Full MeTal Jack · 05-20-2009, 11:00 PM

Iron_Colonel, Update. Remove 2 Garands from invetory. I sold 2 of the lease valued rifles. But a good down payment for a Springfield M1A.

Iron_Colonel · 05-21-2009, 12:23 AM

Looks like we are up to 180 Garands now in the thread. I subtracted 2 that FMJ sold off. But hoping to add another when he gets his M1A. Keep em coming guys!

GlockMeister · 05-21-2009, 12:35 AM

Yea, an M1A. There's one at a dealer near me for $1400. If I sell my bike, I think I just might buy it if it's still there?

Oh and, add one more Garand to that 180 and make it 181. I don't think I posted yet so I am now. lol

Iron_Colonel · 05-21-2009, 01:38 AM

Excellent! I love it when a plan comes together!

nstoolman1 · 06-15-2009, 06:28 PM

I have a SA Serial # 597883. It's a Garand Guy purchase. Nice to see all the beautiful rifles.

MilesFoxe · 06-26-2009, 05:02 PM

Dont have one of it alone or a good one.

Here it is.

I have 1 M1 Garand, Springfield Armory May-June 1945 all correct parts according to Scott Duff's book.

Anton · 06-28-2009, 01:38 PM

Stock has correct SA NFR. Also has U67 on side of stock which I would like to know what it is. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks Iron Colonel. Of Course, still have 5 Garands in the rack. No luck on M1A yet. HOPE I can CHANGE that. Found em but for a too high price. Gun broker, for a Super Match, almost $3000.

Even the "Match" on GB are high.
My thoughts have turned to an AR-10 from DPMS. Couple of weeks wait. Hmm?

but what I did buy recently was a new Hoyt Katera XL bow.
Caught a new disease, "the silent treatment". 445 grains at 280 fps of quiet.

April 1955 manufacture Springfield Armory M1 from CMP:

Here it is alongside my Enfield No.4!

twtalbot · 07-07-2009, 10:10 AM

Welcome to the Garand Club. It looks like you've got one with the machined triggerguard.

Iron_Colonel · 07-10-2009, 12:43 AM

Looks like you also picked up one of those rare bolt action Garands

Anyways, its a beautiful rifle. Good pic. Congrats!!
