carversc Posted May 14, 2023 Report Share Posted May 14, 2023 (edited) SOLD - Thanks! I have a Springfield National Match M1 Garand that I believe is a Type 1 (thanks all who shared their knowledge!). Not sure what year. This came from the DCM around the time they became the CMP in the 90’s. It had been issued to the Rod and Gun Club where I lived in NW PA. When DCM/CMP offered these for sale to the club, the club in turn sold them to the members. There is no DCM/CMP paperwork with it but it shouldn’t be hard to establish provenance by writing to the CMP. I just haven’t taken the time to do so. The yellow tag was with it, the NSN and description indicates it is a NM rifle, not just a somebody putting some NM parts on a rack grade rifle. I don’t think I ever fired it, been in the gun locker, then the safe 30+ years. Light rust spot on butt plate, otherwise beautiful. Time for this to move on to another loving caretaker! Was asking 4k, reduced to 3k/offer. Personal or cashier check please. Unless otherwise agreed to, buyer pays for packaging, shipping and insurance costs. Please PM if interested.

dvader Posted May 21, 2023 Report Share Posted May 21, 2023 (edited) Nice Rifle! It might be a Type 1, that is arguably worth more than a Type 2. I suspect this because of the LMR barrel that must have been hand selected. You can pull the trigger group and see if it is glass bedded. If it is, it is a Type 2, If it is not, it is probable a Type 1. Either way, it is very nice! LMR made great barrels. GLWTS!

Turkeydoc Posted May 28, 2023 Report Share Posted May 28, 2023 It doesn’t look like a type two. Do you have any other pictures of the inside of the stock and the trigger group? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carversc Posted July 16, 2023 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2023 Sorry for not replying sooner, see pics below. Does not appear to have been bedded. Does this make it Type 1? These pics show the NM rifle (no sling) and an “ordinary” rifle (with sling) for comparison. Reducing price. Asking $3k or reasonable offer. Please message me if you have questions. Thanks!
