Well the Garand arrived yesterday, and I got around to taking pictures today.

They don't let you break down the rifles in the store, so when it arrived, I broke it down and started examining the parts. Dang! This thing is a 5.6 million and all the parts (except for the stock) are correct for the rifle! So, essentially, I got a Correct Grade minus the stock. As an added bonus, the muzzle and the chamber both gauge at 1. The stock that is on the rifle is the DuPage with the CMP cartouche. It got me to thinking, what would it take to track down a decent mid-production H&R stock?

Anyway, for your viewing pleasure, here are the snapshots I took today.
