early M1 rifle with S-A 7-40 dated barrel

[RCS]

Early mid 1940 rifle with S-A 7-40 dated barrel (nice bore too and without chrome) SA SPG late stock is original too

some restoration was required. mid 1940 examples are difficult to find or restorep1010040_0042.jpgp1010034_0036.jpgp1010030_0032.jpgp1010029_0031.jpg

Drooling eveywhere here! Nice example of a difficult period to have all correct.

That looks like a keeper.

A really rare variation of the M1 Rifle to find in original configuration.

A little later with an 8-40 barrel.

Sadly, 167583 had to be "rehomed" because of my divorce. It was a sweetheart.
