Sold – US WW2 SPRINGFIELD ARMORY M1 GARAND…..EARLY MARCH 1942… MINT CRISP!

In mint crisp 100% factory original condition we have a very rare March,1942 production M1 Garand Service Rifle.  This rifle is British proofed and was one of the Lend Lease rifles that returned to the US from the the late 1950’s onward .  This is for all practical purposes the only way to get a mint untouched early production Garand rifle.   These rifles are well known to collectors and are highly sought after as the condition is almost new as they saw little or no use across the pond.  This rifle is in the original early war configuration with the early GHS cartouche.  The Sight seal is even still intact on the front sight. This is just a spectacular example of the type of Garand that our forces would have carried at the outbreak of the war were they fortunate enough to be issued one.   If you are a serious collector of WW2 rifles and do not have an early production Garand, this is a must have rifle.
