What’s Included
- Springfield Armory M1 Garand rifle (.30-06)
- No en-bloc clips included
Built on a late-production Springfield Armory receiver, this M1 Garand reflects the refinements of the 1950s era while keeping the rifle’s hallmark reliability. The parkerized ordnance steel finish and walnut furniture present a classic service-grade look with durable protection.
It uses the proven gas-operated, rotating-bolt system and feeds from an internal 8-round magazine via en-bloc clips. The right-side charging handle and standard 24-inch barrel deliver the familiar handling and balance that define the platform.
The stock and handguards are walnut with an oil finish, complemented by a checkered steel buttplate with trap door, sling swivels, and a stacking swivel. Length of pull is 13.25 inches, offering a traditional fit.
Sights are the correct service pattern: a wing-protected front post paired with an aperture rear sight featuring windage and elevation knobs for precise, repeatable adjustments.
The receiver heel is marked "U.S. RIFLE CAL. 30 M1 SPRINGFIELD ARMORY," and the rifle is chambered in .30-06, consistent with standard U.S. service configuration of the period. The bore condition is excellent, supporting strong downrange performance.
