This is an exceptional World War II Winchester M1 Garand rifle that was manufactured in June of 1945, the final production month for Winchester. It has all of its original Winchester parts with the same correct late production matching factory parkerized finish. The right front receiver leg is marked "D28291WIN-13", and the barrel is correctly marked on the right side with the Winchester circled "WP" proof. The ring of the breech is parkerized, correctly, as Winchester parkerized their barrels while affixed to the receiver. The barrel is fitted with the original late Winchester pattern, wide-base gas cylinder with the round top gas cylinder lock with a cross slot gas plug. "D28287-1 W.R.A." marked bolt, "D35382-W.R.A." operating rod (unmodified), "D28290-W.R.A." trigger housing, "C46025 W.R.A." milled trigger guard, "C-46008-1W.R.A." hammer, "WRA-1" safety, hammer spring guide with wings, rear sight with rounded end locking bar on the windage knob, smooth spring clip on the rear handguard with the oval pattern Winchester middle barrel band with the original solid cross pin still in place. Boxed "WRA/GHD" and crossed cannons cartouche stamped on the left of the wrist with a circled "P" proof stamped behind the trigger guard area. The buttplate has the correct raised checkering pattern with the smooth outer edge, with the sharp edge on the trapdoor found on Winchester manufactured buttplates. Fitted with an olive drab green canvas web sling. Includes a CMP shipping record indicating this rifle was shipped from CMP South store to an individual as a service grade on March 8, 2000.

Very fine with original finish and some light handling marks. Stock is also very fine with some light scratches and dents, and defined edges and stamps. Mechanically excellent.
