I have two rack grade Garands that I bought from the CMP
for less than $400 each. One is a Greek return that I selected
in person at the CMP North store and the other is a Danish
return that I ordered. The Danish rifles are all WW2 era and
I requested and received a rifle with a Winchester receiver.
I'm sure it was graded rack grade because of the condition
of the wood. A true mix master, but...it has a Danish VAR
barrel with an excellent bore. Maybe I just got lucky, but a
Garand with a Winchester receiver with an excellent barrel
for less than $400? I'm happy.
