This rifle features a U.S.-made forged steel receiver finished in parkerized gray and marked on the heel "U.S. RIFLE CAL. .30 M1 INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER." It was arsenal overhauled at Red River Army Depot after the Korean War, and the stock bears a faint "RRA" cartouche that aligns with the documented rebuild.
The barrel is a Harrington & Richardson component dated 4/1952, installed during the depot rebuild and not original to the IHC receiver. The operating rod is Springfield Armory marked with drawing number D28287-18SA, reflecting the typical parts mix found on arsenal-rebuilt Garands of the era.
Sighting equipment includes the late T105E1 aperture rear sight with adjustable knobs and a front blade protected by wings, providing the correct period configuration. The gas system wears a lock screw with a recessed face. Controls and metal components retain the parkerized gray finish.
The furniture is walnut with an oil finish, including matching front and rear handguards, and is fitted with sling swivels. The length of pull measures 13.0 inches. This M1 Garand is chambered in .30-06 and configured for a 5-round en-bloc clip, as included. CMP documentation accompanies the rifle for added assurance and traceable history.
