Just picked up my first Garand at the gunshow today. I know very little about them other than i got a good deal considering what ive seen them go for elsewhere. Springfield, looks to have been made in November of 1943. Bore is shiny and fairly bright. I dont know if the barrel is original. He said it guaged out well but didnt have the specs for me. While exiting the show someone stopped me and made a point to talk to me about the front sights. He claimed they were somewhat rare. Is there anything remarkable here? He also said to fire only M2 ball and not comercial 30-06.
