Springfield Armory M1 Garand – .30-06, 1945 Barrel, CMP Rifle Grade

This Springfield Armory M1 Garand is chambered in .30-06 Springfield and represents the iconic semi-automatic battle rifle carried by U.S. forces during World War II, Korea, and beyond. Known for its rugged reliability and 8-round en-bloc clip system, the Garand has earned its place in history as “the greatest battle implement ever devised,” as famously described by General George S. Patton.

This particular rifle features a Springfield Armory receiver (serial number 2771040) paired with a Springfield barrel dated 5-45, making it a World War II–era production piece. The CMP tag notes it as a Rifle Grade RM1Field, with a throat erosion (TE) of 3 and muzzle erosion (ME) of 2+, indicating solid bore condition. The stock shows honest service wear with character dings, yet remains structurally strong. The metal parts retain a nice parkerized finish, with proper Springfield components visible.

As a CMP-documented M1 Garand, this rifle offers both historical authenticity and shooting potential. Collectors and shooters alike will appreciate its mix of history, condition, and provenance, making it a standout addition to any U.S. military arms collection.
