I'm not much into Garands. I like them of course but the finer points re history and fine tuning are lost on me. I picked up a 7.62 converted one in Reno (Willey Bros) a few years ago.

I'm fairly certain the stock is from Wenig.

The front sight is a globe insert type made by Alley, I don't think it's made anymore. Which is too bad. For those of us with good eyes the NM peep rear and "circle in a circle" is an accurate set up.

The left side is stamped with "DGR" evidently stands for "Dean's Gun Restoration" which from what I can tell is a (late) gunsmith who did good work.

It was a bit of a challenge getting the gun store to OK using my C&R but they were eventually OK.
