    Default It followed me home, Honest..1956 Garand

    a Feb 56 Springfield Garand, possible faint import mark on the barrel, no cartouches, previous owner installed a finger type muzzle brake. I think I did ok at $750.

    fits in well with my Dec 41 Lend Lease Garand

    I don't blame you for taking it home. When I see one it follows me home to.

    You did OK but I I would get rid of the Flash Hider and replace it with the correct lock.

    Don't know that I would replace what came with the rifle.
    It is what it is, and how it got there is a story we'd like to know.
    Might be of interest.
