    cplnorton is correct. Unless you have an original rifle, most M1's are usually worth more in parts than whole.

        What makes you think it is a 1945 rebuild other than the mix of parts? How is the stock marked? Has it been reparked? Is the chamber in the white? The SHM proofed postwar rebuilds are a class of rifle unto themselves, both the M-1 Garand and the M-1 carbine. We need more info to help you make an informed decision.

            How do you "rebuild/restore" a four digit reciever? Where the heck do you get Gas Trap Parts? A correctly dated barrel?? I wouldn't give $200 for a four digit reciever, it costs too much to restore..... CC

                Yes, post it. That way I can tell you if it was stolen from me or not...

                        I have a four digit receiver that I built into a rifle. Has some gas trap parts and some 1945 parts, and a lot in between. I had a nice SGM stock and type II lock bar sights. It's just a fun to put together mix. What is special about it, a 6 thousand SN receiver, is that it was stamped almost on my birth date in December 1938. I don't think I'll be selling it very soon.
