i've been offered a trade that would make me the owner of a Garand, with a 1944 Winchester receiver, unmarked dark old stock in good condition. The seller got the rifle from the CMP as a "field grade." As I understand it, the parts are mixed.
Since the CMP is currently out of Field grades, I'm having a hard time estimating the realistic market value of this rifle. Obviously there is variation between "field grade" guns, but a rough ballpark range will help me out. It seems like this might be a good investment, as well as a fun shooter.
thanks for any thought, estimates, or advice.
