WW2 Production US M1 Garand Rifle by Springfield

Serial #3528654, .30-06, 24" barrel with a fine, bright bore that has some minor freckling within the grooves.  The receiver of this rifle was made in February of 1945 and is mated to a matching, 2-45-dated, "S-A" barrel.  All component parts are also "SA," but from various different production periods.  The metal retains 90-92% of a consistent, parkerized finish, with gray fading at the muzzle, along the high edges and projections, and on the bearing surfaces of the bolt and op-rod raceway.  The unmarked walnut stock is in excellent condition with only some minor handling marks scattered about the military oil finish, however there is a large chip of wood missing from the left side of the rear handguard.  A canvas M1 sling is also included.  This is a very nice looking Garand with February 1945 receiver and barrel, in very good-near fine condition overall.  FFL or C&R
