Service Grade CMP SA M1 Garand. S/N 5,8xx,xxx. I don't know and have no way to gauge TE or anything like that. I have put 64 rounds through it since I purchased it directly from the CMP several years ago. Comes with all original paperwork, sling and 16 8-round enbloc clips loaded with ammo in bandoliers. $650. Basically, you're getting 128 rounds loaded in clips for free at this price AND you don't have to wait 30-60 days for your Garand to arrive!

That's $75 worth of ammo, a shipped Service Grade Garand is now $650, you have to wait AND you don't know what you'll end up getting. Anyone who is looking for or even thought of getting a Garand would be a fool to pass this up. FYI, the serial number would seem to indicate a 1956 manufacture date.

Based on the number of PM's that I've received so far I can tell this could get messy REAL quick. So...to avoid anyone gettin' butt-hurt these are the rules:

1) State in this thread that you "want" it. ("PM sent" won't cut it...sorry)
2) Immediately PM me to make meet/payment arrangements.

PMing me asking questions DOES not count as being "in line" to buy it.

I will go by the time stamp in THIS THREAD ONLY. jdaige33 is currently #1 in line followed by JustinB...after that the line forms HERE.

OK, I'm in line but don't know if it will make it down to me. I WANT IT!!! I hope the others fall through!

Thanks for the bump. When I got it, I did a some research and came up with a "born on date" of March 1955 for the receiver s/n. That's interesting because the date code on the barrel is "SA 5 55 for May 1955". I highly doubt that this is the original barrel, but it's close enough to be an interesting topic of conversation.

Could be. I'm using a spreadsheet with serials numbers and dates. I had to estimate the date based on other known numbers. Post Korean war anyway. The nicest Garand I have is also post-Korea.

It may be futile but put me on the list to buy.

Guess I'm really late to the party, but add me too just for the snowball's chance.

On a late Garand, It very well could be the original barrel.
