Springfield Armory M1 Garand CMP Restock, August 1944 USGI Receiver, Criterion 24 inch .30-06 Barrel, Parkerized, Walnut
This CMP-restocked M1 Garand pairs a wartime Springfield Armory USGI receiver dated to August 1944 with a CMP-marked replacement stock and a 24 inch Criterion .30-06 barrel. It retains a parkerized finish over steel, walnut furniture, and classic M1 features. The combination of WWII-era receiver and CMP refurbishment makes this rifle a strong choice for collectors and shooters seeking documented provenance and dependable configuration.
The rifle was restocked and rebarreled through the Civilian Marksmanship Program, and the left buttstock carries the CMP-boxed cartouche. It retains standard M1 hardware, including an aperture rear sight with click-adjustable windage and elevation, a protected front blade, a gas cylinder/front band with bayonet lug, and a steel buttplate with trapdoor for cleaning gear.
Operation is the traditional M1 system: gas-operated, rotating-bolt, semi-automatic with an internal 8-round clip-fed magazine and a top-loading ejection port. The walnut stock and handguards present a classic appearance, and the length of pull measures 13.0 inches. The parkerized receiver is steel and made in the United States during the WWII era.
This rifle includes a leather 1907-pattern two-claw sling installed and no case is included. Overall, it delivers a clean CMP rebuild anchored by an August 1944 Springfield receiver and a modern Criterion barrel in the original .30-06 chambering.
