HRA M1 Garand, serial number 5582966, manufactured in 1955. This rifle is in excellent+ used condition, a terrific example of a postwar M1. The
rifle appears to have all its original parts including LMR barrel. Wood
appearance is outstanding. All parts are detailed below and shown in pictures. No import marks.
Sling, manual and two M1 clips (no ammo) are included.
Parts were clean for photos, coated with oil and greased where appropriate when reassembled. Bench test of timing and op rod function is excellent. We will test fire the rifle if the buyer wants this done.
Gun will ship in a hard, foam lined case.
