15636215 454 Posted March 25, 2022 Bid on this one, just had to have for a few reasons!! Serial #, and that rear handguard is something special!! There are tons of other early parts that I will not bore you AR guys! All I can say is it is like parts from those early Colt ARs!! https://imgur.com/a/oiaZuvY 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

15636215 454 Posted March 25, 2022 Pick up next week. Early 39 gas trap era garand. They made 6.1 million M1 Garands. this is early. Stock repair I have never seen one like it. Had over 500 go thru my hands and collecting parts for almost 30 years. Oh, I did buy an AR 556. Palmetto, Real nice. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tony357 386 Posted April 6, 2022 They put those biscuits in the stock to repair crack. Edit: It is similar to repairing crack in engine block (stitching). 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
