Trigger Mike Posted September 25, 2024 Posted September 25, 2024 I want to sell my Winchester Garand that according to the book all parts numbers are correct for the serial number. There is even the correct stamp on the stock though faded some. What are they going for these days so I know how much to ask? Has a low TE and MW

Cheatin Charlie Posted September 25, 2024 Posted September 25, 2024 "Has a low TE and MW" What does this mean we are not all mind readers.
Chas B. Wolfson, SASS #11104 Posted September 25, 2024 Posted September 25, 2024 TE-throat erosion : wear of the rifling directly at the front of the chamber directly due to the number of rounds fired and also due to WWll ammo loaded with mecuric primers. MW-muzzle wear : again somewhat due to the number of rounds fired but primarily due to using an issued steel cleaning rod not carefully used.

Pat Riot Posted September 25, 2024 Posted September 25, 2024 @Trigger Mike Do you have photos that you would post in your “for sale” ad or post? Would you post them here? It’s hard for others to give an estimate without photos.
Trigger Mike Posted September 25, 2024 Author Posted September 25, 2024 I posted it for sale here a while back so can repost them
