Wife said “You dont NEED a half dozen of the same rifle” so unfortuantly I have to let this gem go from my personal collection. This is an expert grade CMP HRA M1 Garand that was manufactured in 1954. Throat reading is 0/0. It has a new CMP stock and Criterion barrel.

From CMP website: “EXPERT .30-06 GRADE RIFLES will feature a NEW, Commercial-Production Stock Set and a NEW Commercial-Production barrel chambered for .30-06 Springfield. Bore condition will be “as new”, and barrels will gauge “as new”. The balance of parts on EXPERT Grade Rifles will match all service grade criteria, showing less wear and a better cosmetic appearance than a Field or Rack Grade. Cosmetic condition will be good to very good. Rifle finish may vary, exhibiting normal wear and/or color variation among the metal parts. May have some visible pitting, frosting, or other minor cosmetic deformity on the metal parts.”
