Gun Show find

[RDS]

Picked up tonight at the Forks of Delaware show an early M1 Garand serial #35XXX. The receiver never went thru the 7th round repair program. Receiver is as the day it left the arsenal except for some finish wear. It was rebuild during WWII and has a WWII SA 1-45 barrel date.

I missed that one. Where was the dealer located ?

[RDS]

He sets up at the top end of the old section of the hall. He had 2 SAI M1s on his table plus an IHC ,Winchester and a couple Springfields. I purchased it before he displayed it on the table.

Ok, I know the table. I remember seeing the SAI.
