[QUOTE="coolhandluke, post: 2983451, member: 13284"] I was apparently bored enough one day to break it and the Garand down to photograph and document the parts on each. The photos make some of the wear look worse than it appears in person, but it is far from perfect. The Winny Type 1 slide does have a decent amount of light pitting that was refinished over during a rebuild and the color of the trigger housing is very similar to Bavarian carbines that I've seen. I'm not quite sure if the rifle would be considered service or field grade. Barrel is within SG specs, but the amount of wear on most of the metal parts would probably knock it down to FG. Within the last year I ran across a correct hand stamp Inland at SSP North. I made the mistake of posting photos on the CMP forums asking for a rough value while I had it on hold. Unfortunately someone reverse image searched the listing photos and bought it out from under me on SSP's website that evening. Live and learn... [/QUOTE]
