Oh Boy... I'm Giddy

Looks like I just scored an excellent M1 barreled receiver from the CMP forum.... If everything goes well I'll be picking it up this Saturday from Jerry's.

Giggity.

Nice! Congrats. This is the only way to get them now from CMP.

Yeah. Been scoring some parts from the seller section too. Way better prices than some dedicated Garand parts online stores.

I'll be picking this up Saturday and Shuff called me this morning... I should be getting my Mini G this weekend as well.

Garand heaven. It's nice.

I gotta get in on the 'Garand club'. Something else always pops up. But good score on your part. Waiting on pics.

PING

From the pics he sent during the negotiation the receiver is in like new condition with original finish (high numbered post war receiver from springfield - looking for a shooter not a collector grade). Barrel readings were a 1 at the muzzle and a 3 on the throat so its basically in new condition as well. When I get to putting this together I'm highly considering making this a .308 winchester build and selling the barrel to offset the cost of the barrel conversion.
