1954 production receiver, "LMR" marked and "3 54" dated barrel with bright chamber ring, "IHC/D19" bolt, "IHC" operating rod, and "IHC" trigger housing with "IHC" hammer and "F" safety. Fitted with walnut handguards and stock with faint "DoD eagle" inspection stamp on the left of the wrist. Includes a M1 pattern web sling, a "U. C." (Utica Cutlery Co.) marked M1 bayonet, and M1 scabbard.

Very fine, retaining most of the original finish with some light edge wear, minor cycling wear, some limited minor patches of spotting/brown patina visible, and scattered minor handling marks. The stock is fine as sanded and re-oiled with some minor handling marks. Mechanically excellent. The bayonet is very fine.

The stock is also very fine as sanded and re-oiled with some chips at the oiler cutout. Mechanically excellent. The carry case is fine.
