Default (BOTH ARE SOLD) 2 WINCHESTER M1 GARAND RIFLES WITH ORIGINAL CMP BOXES & PAPERWORK

BOTH RIFLES HAVE BEEN SOLD





1. Rifle #1. Serial number XXXXXXXX. $1,600 SHIPPED - FIRM (SOLD)
Barrel is SA-10-47
Trigger group is HRA
Op rod is WRA
Bolt is D28287-12SA
.

I have no idea what the other parts are, other than what is listed above.

I bought this rifle from CMP November 16, 1998. It was whatever their highest available "less wood" grade was back then. When it arrived, it had the nice set of walnut handguards that are still on it (I don't know if they are Winchester or SA), but there was no buttstock.

At the time I had a pile of nice original Garand wood, so I put one of my stocks on it. I has a little boxed "3 stars over eagle" on the left side of the stock, and a circled plain P on the front of the grip.

I don't know the muzzle or throat, have no way of measuring them, and back then CMP didn't list the specs for them on the paperwork. It has a beautiful bore that is bright and shiny with sharp rifling.

Overall I'd rate the whole rifle in excellent condition.

Other than the stock which I added, this rifle is untouched and unfired, exactly as I received it in November 1998. I just now took it out of the box for the first time in 22 years.


THIS IS NOT A $650 BEATER WITH MIXED PARTS, HEAVY JUNGLE RUST PITTING UNDER NEW PARKERIZING, WITH AN AFTERMARKET STOCK SET AND BARREL.

THIS RIFLE IS "OLD SCHOOL", "BACK IN THE DAY", "AS GOOD AS IT GETS" - you will not see another one like it anytime soon. This is from my personal long-time collection, that many folks here are familiar with, and I don't collect junk.

I'm only selling this to raise funds for some eye surgery on one of the dogs here at the dog and wolf-hybrid rescue I run, so THE PRICE IS FIRM and I am not interested in any trades.

The price is $1,600 shipped FIRM, or $1,500 if someone with the necessary paperwork in Southern California wants to come out to my place in Southwest Riverside County and pick it up.

This will be listed on other sites, so the first definite and unconditional "I'll take it" to my EMAIL at vonweigert(at)earthlink.net gets it

Postal Money Order is preferred method of payment, but other MO or check will work also. NO PAYPAL or other online payment.





2. RIFLE #2. SERIAL NUMBER XXXXXXX $1,800 SHIPPED - FIRM SOLD

Barrel is Winchester (WP) proofed - as I recall all other markings on Winchester barrels are under the handguards, and since it is a Winchester barrel (looks like the original one to me) I'm not going to take it apart any further than I did just now by taking the action out of the stock to check visible parts markings on the main parts, since I already did that 20 some years ago.

Triggerguard is WRA D28290 but hammer and safety are Springfield Armory SA marked, not sure what trigger is

Stock is Winchester WRA/GHD marked with crossed cannon cartouche.

Op rod and bolt are Springfield Armory SA marked

Not sure about the rest of the parts and not going to disassemble it any further than this, same as when I first got it.

I got this one from CMP in April 1999, other than taking it out of the box and removing the
action from the stock to examine it, it is exactly as I got it, untouched for the last 21 years and unfired.

Terms are the same as the first rifle listed here.


The price on this one is $1,800 SHIPPED - FIRM. (SOLD)
