2/15/21 - This is an excellent example of a Springfield M1 Garand, manufactured in 1955. The gun is in excellent condition overall except for a few light handling marks here and there and a few small dots of rust on the barrel. The stock has a DOD stamp and is in nice condition - there are just some light scratches and bruises throughout. The gun comes with a canvas sling. Fully functional and the action is smooth. The bore is very nice - shiny with strong rifling with minor fouling in the grooves.
