My Two Springfield M1As

By

– July 11, 2018Posted in: M1 Garand, Semi Autos

Here are my two M1As.  The Stainless barrel is a a “loaded” and it will shoot an honest 3/4″ MOA from a bench rest using Creedmore 175 ammo.

The second is a standard grade with a National Match rear sight and Sadlak scope mounts.  I traded a Saiga AK-47 and a BBQ smoker for it.  BEST TRADE EVER!!

Before Pics.

Springfield M1 Garand.

$R195D0I

At first glance he looks pretty darn rough, but actually the metal on this rifle is very good!!  It appears it has never been re-finished so the the markings are very sharp and there are no pits anywhere except on the plate on the trigger that is on the inside and will never be seen.  I plan on doing this restoration myself.  I think it will be relatively straightforward.  The plan is to rebarrel this guy with a Criterion 308 barrel, add NM sights, and an aftermarket stock.
