Elmer, if you're looking for a shooter M1 they were all made to the same specs. A thorough inspection of the receiver with emphasis on wear in the raceways covers most of the sins you might run across. If worn...look behind another door. Do a visual in the bore. As I recall original specs were 4 grooves.

If you're interested in something with collectable value look for Winchester, Rockola or perhaps Inland Division (GM) production. Most I see in gun shows are running $700+\- these days. There is no such thing as NIB...
