Title: Springfield Armory M1 Garand – 1953 Service Grade – Matching Core Barreled Action w/ CMP Certificate & Hang Tag

Description:
Up for sale is an exceptional, highly correct post-WWII Cold War / Korean War era M1 Garand manufactured by Springfield Armory. This rifle was purchased directly from the Civilian Marksmanship Program (CMP) in September 2018 and includes its official CMP Certificate of Authenticity and the armorer's data hang tag.

Unlike many heavily mixed surplus rifles, this piece features a remarkably cohesive, matching-period Springfield Armory "barreled action" core. The receiver, factory-original barrel, bolt, and operating rod all match the late-1952/1953 production window perfectly, making it an outstanding addition for a collector or a premium vintage target shooter.
