[QUOTE="mr ed, post: 3247997, member: 6777"] 99% of all Garands and parts are USGI. However there are some aftermarkets to stay away from Federal Ordnance National Ordnance Beretta Breda Springfield Armory of Geneseo Ill. These all had someone make receivers for them. Then assembled with surplus parts. I ordered a customer one of the Geneseo Springfields back in the 80's . It was supposed to be some super whoopty-do national match gun that cost about 8 or 10 times what one from the CMP cost. It came with an amazing test target featuring a cloverleaf hole pattern. The only problem was they never finished chamber reaming the barrel after fitting it. So it wouldn't chamber a round. [/QUOTE]
