I finally scored my Garand last summer. Went down to my FFL to pick up an A1 receiver set for a 20" retro build I was doing and he had a '44 Springfield Armory on his back wall. The stock had a lot of battle chatter in it but the receiver, barrel and action metal was pristine. At $800 it was a steal. I had him toss it on the 4473 right then and there.
OP, go to ammogarand.com and get you some pre-packed 48-round bandoliers and order a small pile of AP blacktips while you're at it. Good times.

Thatβs be like putting 24β rims and a gay paint job on a 69 Camaro. This one is staying stock.
