I've had this awhile and I don't think I have ever posted it before. My friend picked this up in the 60's or 70's and I got it from him. He has a Type 1 that is nicer than this one. And everytime I go over I bug him on selling it. He's about 40 years older than me, so I joke with him all the time that I just have to wait till he dies, and it's mine. lol
But the rifle is all correct. The only thing I question is the 2 rivet handguard but that is the way it has always been.
It's a 6.27 million range and a 10/44 barrel. I know the barrel guages like a 0 or 1, so basically new. And it has one of the nicest M1A1 stocks I have ever seen with no rebuild markings. I doubt it's ever been issued.
I thought you guys might enjoy seeing some pics this morning. :)
