Hello Wanstallas,
Can you please tell me if phase 2 is better in quality than phases 3 and 4, or are they all the same?
Also I checked James River's site, and for the M1 Garand they said "...We use the original zinc phosphate gray-green parkerizng and add a new American Walnut stock set, correctly cartouched for the receiver's serial number. We also have the ability to add the correct barrel date..." Is there a chance (or added money) if you can help me choose a receiver with 1940 or 1941 for the manufacture date?
Sorry forgot to ask, if I use one of these M1s for WWII reenactment, would they be correct or even authentic?
Thanks!
Joe
