Serial no. 3088079. Manufactured in 1944 at Springfield Armory, chambered in .30-06, 24″ round barrel marked “1-S-A-12-44.” Bore is bright with strong, well-defined rifling noted. Bolt is marked “D28287-19SA / A-8,” receiver “0 7 6D / D 28291 SA,” while the cut operating rod is marked “D35382 SA.” Trigger housing assembly is correctly Springfield Armory marked. Of particular interest, the rifle retains its desirable Type III lock-bar rear sight, a distinctly WWII-era feature.

A handsome WWII Springfield M1 Garand retaining numerous identifiable Springfield components and desirable wartime inspection markings. Action is smooth and functions correctly.
