Threaded bolt of some type. Cannot not make out the detail with it in the packaging.

I can't identify it inside the package, through a little detective work, my guess is it's a part for some type of barely used and only dropped once, French made rifle...

That's fair.

Already installed it but it replaced this one. If you look close I got the wrong one and ordered another one tonight.

Now that... that looks suspiciously like the front barrel band screw for an M1 Carbine...

Ding-ding-ding!

Unfortunately I needed the early version but ordered the later version.

Had to order another one yesterday.

Paratrooper stock top cover kept coming loose. Repro stock, of course. Man, I love that silly gun!

Also need to crimp the oil bottle holder. It fell out last time shooting and a miracle my buddy saw it in the grass!

What has happened to the CMP? Only $1000 rifles available. The in store stock is SLIM. ( at least they have ammo in person at the TMP)

Speaking of CMP - anyone know what the lead times are for mail-ordering a Garand?

It’s been running 3 months or so. They’re pretty much out of everything right now though

What price point are 91/30's actually selling at? I see them everywhere for $380 to $480 bucks. Is anyone paying that? I feel like they would sell in the mid 2's

Honestly it depends on Arsenal, year, and markings
