Interesting things. M1 Garand parts were there in numbers I had not noticed before. There were lots of barrels and at least one op rod and stock parts. I wonder if it is time to invest in some of them while they are available. I guess if I was going to invest it might be better to do it and then publicize what I found. . But there were so many.

I invested $100 in a State Association M1 raffle and WON ! All my M1 parts are on rifles !! lol
(not really, got a couple bolts/trigger groups, but sure wish I'd bought op rods when CMP had barrels full)

The price of an op rod today is more than I paid for my first M1 NM from the DCM in 1959!

So how much is an op rod going for now?. Some years back at the Huston gun show they were going for $50 each. Frank

Just got reading on the M14 forum about this, there appears to be a lot copied parts selling for the price of originals, they said it takes a lot of knowledge to be able to spot the fakes which won't last or work like an original, so, buyer beware.
