    My 1943 M1 Garand

    Many of you here know the back story, after a few trips to Orion, the rifle is almost completely made from 1943 parts. The rear site and the stock are all that i need to complete the rifle.

      Nothing, I just want a 1943 stock to go with everything else.

                  You may have some luck finding the remaining parts on the garand forum. I know there is one somewhere.
                  Nice build and definitely make it all 1943 authentic. Great piece of history.

                    Someone will have the stock you'll need. It might not be cheap though.

                      I have a Springfield built in October 42 with the correct barrel and stock, but everything else is a mix of manufacturers and dates. I thought about making it right, but man can it get $$$.
