Another Oldie but Goodie Added one more to the stable. A all Correct "restored" 1943 Garand, 1.8 mil serial
Most of my rifles I have now are shooters and rifles I built to be shooters Just starting toget back into collector rifles again If they could only talk
I didnt do anything The person I bought it from sent it to Scott Duff in 1999 and had it restored with correct parts. I actually dont know what was changed to be made correct
I want one of those. I've seen them for sale and the prices are all over the place. I heard somewhere if the serial numbers are 4,000,000 or less, they were manufactured or used during WWII. What to look for when buying one and what are reasonable price ranges? Thanks!!
Serial number info ... http://usriflecal30m1.com/ProductionGraph.aspx There are Muzzle gauges, and throat erosion gauges to help determine the general condition of an M1. I see lots of Garands in good condition, selling for around $1K... plus, or minus... depending on your area, and how bad you want it....
You can get a very nice mixmaster Garand for $625 from CMP, $800-$850 on the secondary market $1000 wont buy a rifle like what I have pictured above
