World War II

.30-06. 24" barrel length. SN: 934758. Grey/green parkerized metal finish.

Gas operated semi automatic rifle with adjustable peep rear sight and blade front sight with ear protectors. Item features triple stacking swivels, bayonet lug, internal box magazine, and a trapdoor buttplate with cleaning kit. Markings include U.S. RIFLE/CAL. .30 M1/SPRINGFIELD/ARMORY/934758 to receiver, and 2-S-A-6-43 to right side of barrel. Frame is also marked with Century Arms importer marks on left side.

Condition
Good. Bore is frosty and has some light residue to rifling. Finish has thinned areas overall, as well as scattered light scratches and pitting. Gas cylinder and barrel muzzle have most of the pit marks. Wood stock possibly refurbished and shows no arsenal markings, with some scattered light scratches. Handguards possibly replaced at some point as they have a slightly darker stain and flaky losses not seen on rest of stock. Barrel has a muzzle reading of about 1 and a throat reading of about 0 to 0.5.
