I have been reading that today's M1 field grades are yesterday's rack grades. I just found out this is true. Received a SA field grade July1941 with a poor barrel SA52. Firewood and little park. Dumped it on my local dealer who was glad to get it.
As Dean says; "Life's too short to shoot an ugly gun ! "
I wouldn't take a chance on ordering a field grade anymore. I would only buy one by going to the stores.
Right on..............

That's all fine and well if you're close enough to actualy go to the store but they haven't built one in Kommiefornia yet.

If you're going to have to rebarrel, repark, and rewood the rifle anyway, you might as well just order the rack grade. if you want a guarantee that you won't have to rebarrel, repark, or rewood it, you're stuck buying correct or special grades. Service grades can go either way. take your chances
