Yeah, I really like Ammogarand. I've got quite a bit of parts and stuff there, always been good and shipped out fast.

Knows his stuff and is willing to help. His hobby turned into a business as he says he has at least 2 Springfield M1 Garands produced during each month of their entire production!! He's a great guy to deal with, even when you're a relative newbie like I was when I called him some 6 years ago. Walked me through understanding my HRA and explaining what I had.
I was able to buy a few parts to convert it from an excellent example of a CMP Service Grade into a CMP Correct Grade with the swap of just a few parts. He told me that the CMP sometimes gets too many Correct Grade M1s in so they swap out a bolt, op rod and gas plug to another producer's and then sell them as Service Grades to keep the Correct Grade price stable.
That's what I had except my bolt was a correct HRA bolt so I got a new old stock correct HRA op rod and gas plug and now I'm set. As my bearing on the end of my Springfield op rod was minimum OD to spec, getting a new, unused old stock, correct HRA also improved performance.
