Thank you so much for the information. I’m on a mission to have 1 rifle from each known manufacturer/maker of M1 Garands, and there are 7 of them. Rock Island Armory was also supposed to make them, the serial block was assigned, but never used. So we have Springfield Armory, Winchester, International Harvester, Harrington & Richardson, Century Arms, National Ordinance, and Breda. 2 down, 5 to go!
The books and the videos are great, and a huge help in identifying parts and in making repairs. I have a beautiful November 1943 SA M1 Garand, but it has a 1953 SA barrel, but it's a great shooter!
@@tonyc223 No original military armory or military contracted M1 Garand receivers were cast. However, CAI made garands some years back (80's-90's?)that were cast. They were also garbage.

Excellent video. I’ve shared with my buddy who just got his first. A post WWII SA. Hs excited to say the least. 👍
thank you for the info! I have a feb 1945 receiver and barrel and a 1942-1944 bolt
I've seen push bolts and auto bolts. Some that go back when loaded, some manual. So what was used first?
Hello
Were and M1 Garands made by major manufacturers after 1957 were as the receiver had a casting line down the middle back of the receiver ?
Thanks
M1 Garand were not manufactured after 1957
