Springfield Armory ~ M1D Garand ~ .30-06 Springfield

Description:
The M1D was adopted as a substitute for the M1C. The M1D project also resulted in the development of improved telescopic sights, culminating in the standardization of the 2.2X M84 scope, equipped with sealed optics, protective metal covers on the elevation/windage adjustment knobs, and a sliding light shade. The M1D's scope could also be mounted without removing the rifle's iron sights. Even though the M1D was ultimately superior to the M1C, the timing of its production effectively kept it from seeing extensive combat. The M1D did not see service in World War II, and when it was put into full-scale production during the Korean War, that conflict was over before the M1Ds could fire shots in anger against the Communist Koreans and Chinese. Small numbers of the M1D did serve with American troops in combat, with action in Lebanon during 1958, the Dominican Republic in 1965, and in the early days of America's involvement in the Vietnam War. This example is in great shape. Barrel is SA 8-52. MW:1; TE:3. Comes with a sling and cheek pad attached. .30-06 Springfield
