Yesterday I picked up a SA Service grade, 5,400,000+ range, M1 with about 90% finish on everything but the stacking swivel and a worn butt plate. The rifling is sharp & the muzzle takes the first 1/2 of a M2 bullet. The previous owner had only put 3 bxs of CK M2 thru it since he got it from CMP 2 yrs ago. The wood is nice with not many dings in it with a matching finish on the stock & handguards. The major components are all SA with a 54 SA barrel. Everything looks good al way around. In the deal I also got 900 rds of LC ball, plus 18 en blocs clips, sling & gun case. All for $600, private sale. |

did you slip the guy a mickey or something? i'm pretty damn jealous Na, he's an older friend of mine thats decided to simply his life & possessions. He's going to put the money into a high-end bamboo fly rod. He knows the SG is in a good home & will be well taken care of. I just got a digital camera but I still ned to figure out how it all works. I'll use this SG in the local JC Garand matches now. I've been using my first Garand I got back in the mid 80's from DCM. I keep coming in first or second in the matches but have to recuse myself since it's been bedded and has a match aperature on it so I can't claim any prize money. Other than that it's stock & shoots real good. Back then they must have had some real nice M1's since it came to me looking almost new for $300 I think. I also have a rack grade I got last year from CMP but it needs a rebuild. When I get that done I may put an Amega Ranges scout mount on it. |
That's a hell of a deal!
Sounds like you are good to go. |
