Century Imported M1 Garands

[RDS]

A local dealer had about a half dozen well used brown M1 Garands. One of them had a Taiwanese marked barrel. They all were from the same collection. Most were early war M1s under 1 million serial number. Most had correct well worn parts including numbered gas cylinders, grooved bands and lock bar sights. Condition was fair to good but fair bores. I remember Century importing guns from Central America but not Taiwan.

Did the marks look like this ?

Yes that was the mark on the barrel along with 2 letters.

Interesting!
Are any of them still for sale?

I have a few Taiwanese parts, including a clip latch and safety. Apparently TI-marked rear sight parts are very common. Have a handful of those, too.
