Sights / Optics: The front sight is a blade set between two protective wings. The rear sight is a fully adjustable aperture sight set between two protective wings.

Stock Configuration & Condition: The wood stock has a semi-pistol grip, metal nose caps, stacking loop, double sling loops, and a metal buttplate with hinged door for storage (oil bottle, tool and cleaning rod assembly in compartment). The LOP measures 13” from the front of the trigger to the back of the buttplate. The buttplate shows scattered light wear. The forward handguard has only light handling marks. The rear handguard and stock show scattered nicks, dings and scuffs. There is a pin-repaired crack on the top-left edge of the buttstock below the receiver. There is a crack at the right-rear of the butt. There are a few open grain-lines. Overall the stocks are in Good-plus condition as refurbished.

Type of Finish: Parkerized

Finish Originality: Arsenal Refurbished

Bore Condition: The bore is mostly bright with sharp rifling. There is infrequent minor erosion in the bore. Our gauges show an ME of about 1.75 and a TE of about 2. In this writer's opinion the bore rates 8/10.

Overall Condition: The rifle retains 90% of its metal finish. The finish is generally strong. There is some scuffing on the gas cylinder and front sight assembly. The finish is thinning on the bottom of the floorplate and trigger guard. There are a few other scattered minor marks. The action shows operational wear. The markings are clear. Overall, this rifle is in Very Good condition.

Mechanics: The action functions correctly. We have not fired this rifle. As with all previously owned firearms, a thorough cleaning may be necessary to meet your maintenance standards.

Box, Paperwork & Accessories: Included are the installed green canvas sling, cleaning accessories in the buttstock, green canvas zipper case, what appears to be its original shipping carton from Anniston Army Depot, AAD DD Form 1149 for the transfer of this rifle out of Army inventory and a bandoleer with six loaded en-bloc clips.

Our Assessment: This Harrington & Richardson M1 Garand, manufactured ca. 1955, is a fine example of the classic rifle. H&R was one of only two private contractors to produce the M1 Garand after WWII, the other being International Harvester. They were awarded a contract to produce rifles in 1952, during the Korean War, but were only able to produce 500 rifles in 1953 when the war ended. Their production would continue through 1956 with about 450,000 rifles total. This example was rebuilt at the Anniston Army Depot in 1965 and appears to have seen limited use since. It was sold out of Anniston as a Service Grade and comes with what appears to be the Anniston shipping carton. Every collection needs an M1 Garand and this one could be yours. Please see our photos and good luck!
