WTB M1 Garand Receiver

[jbkf1003]

Hi Guys,

Looking for a nice Garand receiver for a project, finish isn't important but nice sight serrations are. Manufacturer does not matter either. I'm looking to pay upto $350 shipped, my FFL will receive from an individual.

Thanks
Justin

Have you found one yet? Have you tried the Garand Guy?

[jbkf1003]

Thanks for the followup. Yes I did just get one lined up over the weekend. I bought a 308 barrel of a guy and just happened to ask him if he had one and I got a nice one for a decent price. You'll be seeing it in a few weeks, still waiting on my CMP stock set and some overpriced reparked parts then it will all be off to you for some time with a carbide cutter...

Thanks
Justin

Garand Guy is not selling receivers. I asked about purchasing a receiver a month or two ago and he said no.

They are getting harder to find. You can go the Gunbroker route if you must, but they are getting up there in price, and alot of the ones I have seen on there have well worn sight serrations, ect.

I have a super nice HRA in original finish, looks brand new. I was going to use it for this project, but just couldn't bring myself to have it cut up. I'll save that for when stripped receivers are going for $750 in a few years...

Omg, You must have been talking to someone over at Cmp? The endless supply will eventualy run out over at the arsenal..But $750 each for that part? Our money sure won't be worth much by then? Some of the last ones I have noticed offered are kind of ragged..but Tim could work his magic and make em nice..with the parkin..
