Picture in the news recently of a foriegn country destroying US M1 Garands.

  Several years ago the “powers that be” decided that the M1 garand along with other surplus military firearms were to be destroyed. Many M1 garands had their stocks stripped off and the metal parts were sent through “captain crunch” (an industrial metal shredder), cut up into little pieces, and sold for scrap. Some of the stocks were sold in lots and some were destroyed outright.

 

In 2002 a unique opportunity was found. A storage building full of these surplus stocks was found where they had been stored since they were purchased at a Government surplus sale. The stocks in this group were primarily new/like new condition, post war Springfield and Harrington & Richardson. These stocks were to be destroyed, so no care was taken in their storage. They were tossed into crates with no regard for their condition. Many, even though from new rifles, have dents and dings as a result.

The Collector Source deals primarily with post war ,collector grade, M1 garand stocks but also has other military surplus items from time to time available. We have a limited supply of N.O.S. (new, old stock) M1 Carbine stocks, 1903 & 1903A3 stocks and handguards. One of our most popular items is the M1 Garand Gas cylinder Kit. There is also an extensive section of USGI accessories such as M3A1 combination tools, Oilers, Ruptured cartridge Extractors, M1 Garand web slings and many more hard to find items. These items used to be very plentiful on the surplus market. Supplies of these items have been "drying up" and many cheeply made reproductions are appearing for sale. Get the real thing while you still can.
