SA/IHC ~ "Postage Stamp" M1 Garand ~ .30-06 Springfield

Description:
IHC "Postage Stamp" M1 Garand. The "Postage Stamp" designation refers to the distinct appearance of the receiver's marking, which resembles a postage stamp due to its boxed-in style. This specific rifle features an LMR (Line Material Company) barrel dated 12-52. The receivers were unfinished from Springfield Armory and rather than stamping the receiver logo markings with "arrowhead" format, IHC chose to stamp them with a format consisting of four even lines. This variant is known as the "Postage Stamp" SA/IHC receiver. There were only a relatively small number of these receivers made (estimated at around 800 to 900). Like the "arrowhead" receivers, these were stamped with the Springfield Armory drawing number (D652891), revision numbers (43), and heat lot numbers indicating production by Springfield. Most of these rifles were assembled with LMR barrels, typically dated late 1952 or early 1953, but it is believed that some Springfield Armory barrels (dated early 1953) were utilized as well.
