Mint, Complete Springfield Armory M1D Garand Sniper Set

Description:
Here is an absolutely gorgeous and documented CMP Sales US Springfield M1D sniper rifle with M84 scope, mount, sun shade, cone flash hider, MRT 3-69 stamped leather cheek piece, sling, original basic issue cleaning accessories, AND CMP verification of the sale in 1996. It also has a FOIA document stating it went to Tooele Army Depot in the 1970s. Comes in the shipping box with plastic storage wrap numbered to the rifle. Excellent September of 1944 serial numbered Springfield receiver with 5-51 SA barrel with mint bore. ME is a 2, TE is a 1. The rifle looks about new as re-arsenaled with just some light storage marks. The rifle and scope are excellent inside and out. All the accessories otherwise are still sealed in their packaging. The M1Ds were all made from existing stocks of M1 rifles, utilizing new SA barrels (usually 1951/52 dated) with a mix of other parts. They all typically show some stock evidence of rebuild as this one does. SA cartouche on left side. Two Circle P Proofs on the stock wrist. SA marked bolt, barrel, receiver, trigger guard assembly, and stock. The US M84 scope has crisp clear optics and has excellent blue finish. Scope adjusts properly. We doubt this M1D was ever issued. This one appears to have seen no service use after completing M1D program rebuild. Rifle, M84 scope, US Government paperwork, shipping box, accessories shipped with the rifle and all are tied together through documented part/serial numbers on the CMP purchase & shipping paperwork/box.
