Description:
International Harvester M1 Garand, serial number 44500xx, manufactured around 1953. LMR barrel dated February 1953 with a bright bore. All other marked parts are IHC, no import marks.
This M1 Garand is in very good+ used condition. We believe all wood and metal finish is original.
The rifle has been disassembled, cleaned, lubricated and test fired, see our video at our YouTube channel Fernwood Armory TV. Parts were clean for photos, coated with oil and greased where appropriate when reassembled.
Two M1 enbloc clips (no ammo) and canvas repro sling are included.
