A deep red wood finish and a clear crossed-cannons ordnance wheel mark the stock of this Springfield Armory M1 Garand. The seller says the receiver heel carries crisp markings with a highly collectible WWII-era serial number, 4371096, and that the cartouche is stamped into the grain.

The rifle is chambered in .30-06 with a 24-inch barrel and an 8-round capacity. The seller reports a mirror-clean bore with strong, distinct rifling. It comes complete with an authentic green canvas bandoleer, a bayonet, and two steel en bloc clips. That is a good set of accessories for display or the range.

The Garand served in the Second World War and Korea, and the seller points out its role in the Vietnam War, with early advisors, ARVN forces, and local security units. That gives the rifle a wide history, and it appeals to collectors who want a piece of each conflict.

Use ammunition made for the M1 to protect the operating rod. When it arrives, check the markings on the receiver and the barrel. Look at the wood for cracks, and inspect the bore. It is sold as described, in used condition. The rifle ships to your FFL dealer for the background check.
