Rare, Parts-Correct WWII Springfield Armory M1 Garand – July 1943 Production
An exceptional, investment-grade example of \"The Greatest Battle Implement Ever Devised.\"
Unlike the vast majority of M1 Garands on the market today—which were mixed, matched, and overhauled during post-war arsenal rebuild programs—this highly desirable Springfield Armory specimen has survived with its core, period-correct World War II components entirely intact. Every drawing number, revision code, and factory stamp seamlessly synchronizes to a singular, precise production window: July 1943.
Historical Significance
Rolling off the Springfield assembly line in the summer of 1943, this rifle was manufactured at the absolute height of the global conflict. Rifles from this exact production block were the tip of the spear for the Allied war effort. This M1 was born just as the Italian Campaign was kicking off, stood ready for the eventual build-up to the D-Day landings at Normandy, and crossed the treacherous islands of the Pacific Theater. It represents the raw, unadulterated engineering that armed the Greatest Generation.
Matching Numbers Defined by the following breakdown
Every primary part has been meticulously inspected and verified for period accuracy:
-Receiver: Serial number ?1764752? confirms a production date of July 1943. The receiver leg is cleanly stamped with drawing number ?D 28291 29? alongside correct heat lot codes (?O 4 7? / ?U U?), matching textbook specifications for this exact block.
-Barrel: Stamped ?3-S-A-7-43?, indicating manufacture by Springfield Armory in July of 1943. This is an extraordinary find, establishing a perfect \"birth-month\" marriage between the barrel and receiver.
-Operating Rod: Features the highly sought-after, early-to-mid-war curved-side configuration with drawing number ?D35382 6 SA?.
-Bolt: Marked ?D28287-12SA? over heat lot ?S-04??, a correct mid-war variation utilizing the specific steel-supplier diamond stamp.
-Trigger Group: Housing features the correct WWII small-pad drawing number ?D28290-12-SA?, housing a correct ?C46008-5 SA? hammer.
-Trigger Guard: Correct, early-style milled trigger guard with the characteristic rear disassembly loop—long before the stamped sheet-metal transitions of late 1944.
-Rear Sight Assembly: Features the iconic, combat-era Lockbar rear sight assembly, the quintessential aesthetic piece for a true WWII-display M1.
-Internal Parts: Features clean, un-serifed piece-tracking and assembly numbers (such as ?11? on the follower arm assembly) standard for mid-war subcontracting.
Condition Summary
The rifle presents beautifully with a deep, even, period-correct parkerized finish across the receiver, bolt, and operating rod. The wood stock carries the honest dings, character, and smooth patina. Bore remains clean with shootable life remaining, seamlessly bridging the gap between an active range piece and a museum-grade centerpiece.
Do not miss the chance to own a true, synchronized time capsule from the pivot-point of World War II.
