H&R M1 Garand CMP .308 Win (7.62x51 NATO) Semi-Auto, 24" Barrel, Parkerized, Hardwood Stock, 8-Round
This Harrington & Richardson M1 Garand is a CMP-marked example built on a mid-1950s H&R USGI receiver and configured for .308 Winchester (7.62x51 NATO). It retains the parkerized finish, hardwood full-length stock with trapdoor buttplate, and USGI-style sights that define the platform. A clean, mirror-finish bore and very good overall condition add to its appeal for both shooters and collectors.

Built by Harrington & Richardson during the post-war production run, this rifle features the receiver heel marking "U.S. RIFLE CAL. .30 M1 H.&R. ARMS CO." associated with H&R's mid-1950s manufacture. The receiver and major steel components wear a parkerized finish consistent with USGI practice.
It is a CMP-marked rifle, with a CMP stamp observed near the forward barrel/gas system. This example is converted/chambered to .308 Winchester (7.62x51 NATO), offering a widely available cartridge option while retaining the M1's core characteristics.
The rifle retains the USGI T105E1-type sighting setup, combining an aperture rear sight with windage and elevation drums and a protected blade front. The stock is a full-length hardwood unit with a checkered steel buttplate and trapdoor, complemented by two-piece hardwood handguards.
Mechanically, it follows the M1 pattern with a semi-automatic, gas-operated, rotating-bolt action. The 24" barrel and 8-round en-bloc clip system maintain the platform's familiar handling. Length of pull measures 13.0 inches.
