Specific Rifle Details & Parts List : All Springfield Parts!
A nice looking Feb 1942 early war Springfield receiver, the rifle was re-fitted by US arsenals with a SA 9-51 Korean replacement barrel using additional surplus stock. The chamber is in the "white" or shinny. Almost every produced M1 during WW2 was sent to US arsenals for overhauling as required, and kept stored until the next conflict (Korean War). The barrel has a nice bright bore with gauge readings at (1+) for the muzzle erosion (ME) and (3+) for the throat erosion (TE). These are both "GOOD" readings and well within our military service specifications (Barrel Gauges in Pics) . The M1 has a beautiful walnut stock with no visible markings, most likely sanded off during arsenal overhaul. 
The M1 Garand is fitted with "ALL"  Springfield G.I parts.

CMP SERVICE GRADE DEFINITION: (GOOD TO VERY GOOD)

Service Grade Rifles will show less wear and a better cosmetic appearance than a Field or Rack Grade. Cosmetic condition will be good to very good.  Rifle finish may vary, exhibiting normal wear and/or color variation among the metal parts.  May have some visible pitting, frosting, or other minor cosmetic deformity on the metal parts. Stock sets may consist of any species of wood (or combination thereof); and could exhibit dents, dings, scratches, and/or structurally insignificant cracks. New production, commercial stock sets may be used, and will likely exhibit signs of wear and prior use.  Bores will be bright, and free of any major defect that would be visible to the naked eye. The exterior circumference of the barrel crown may be nicked, dented, or dinged, but such deformity will not extend into the bore.  Service Grade muzzles will gauge “3 or less” and the throat erosion will gauge less than 5.  A reasonable allowance for gauge tolerances will be afforded.
