Great advise. I would check all the drawing #'s and determine if you have a correct grade or not. Restored or original Garands are great.
After owning and shooting a pair of surplus Garands I decided to do a full rearsenal on one. Kreiger barrel, nm op-rod and sights, heavy stock. It's shoots like a dream, but has no stories to tell.
