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 

What's special about the SN?

That's a relatively early number I believe.

Looks like 1939 DoM

Very very nice Dave - I always loved the old wood repair work the armorers did... even on enfields etc...

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.

They put those biscuits in the stock to repair crack. 

Edit: It is similar to repairing crack in engine block (stitching).

I know, but this one really stands out. Most biscuits almost blend in.

Maybe it was an Albanian SKS armorer that repaired it. LOl..
