    WTB early Winchester M1 Garand

    I'm looking for a 6-digit Winchester complete rifle. Being an Active Duty Marine, a O-65 or O-66 marked receiver would be worth a premium to me. I have an active C&R in hand.

    I'd prefer to have WRA marked parts, but a replacement barrel is fine - so if anyone has one they've been slowly correcting I'd be interested. I've got a 60's WRA replacement barrel and I'd like to eventually build it into something similar to a rifle rebuilt during the late 60's but with all Winchester parts.

    There were over 65K (100K - 165K) rifles produced in this serial number range, so I'm sure someone has what I'm looking for. I'm open to the later 1Mil serial numbers as well, but prefer the pre-war ones.
