Since Orlando hooked me up on a trigger guard, and I got that all put together and installed, I pulled out a Garand Parts kit to assemble trigger group, rear site, basically everything I could, and inventorying those parts I couldn't assemble, and I find myself in need for the following:
1. Follower Arm;
2. Nutlock and Spring for Rear Sight; and most significantly,
3. Receiver.
4. NM hooded rear sight.
The receiver obviously is the biggest expense, so I'm hoping one of y'all will have a decent one and is feeling somewhat charitable! I don't care manufacture, just that it will fully functional and in spec (and no rewelds); that it will repark well; and no pitting above the wood line. Minor pitting below the wood line is ok.
So, ... can y'all help?
I've thought about just getting a field grade from CMP for $630, so I can use those parts from the FG, and then part out the rest (or keep the rest for another partial Parts kit. But, I'm a little concerned about getting a receiver with pitting above the wood line , or bad bad pitting beneath the wood line.
Your thoughts on this option?
Thanks,
JGW
