    Does this feature alone add value (monetarily)?
    As a shooter and not a collector ,for me no.For those that collect every possible variation by year,lot,heat number,cartouche,you get the idea yes!
    Don't buy one to get rich.Making money will be short lived by a sale ,and then you spend the cash on something else.
    Keep it simple!

          If it is USGI (non-import), buy it. Even if the barrel looks worn. The parting out price is worth more than the asking price. Especially if it has USGI wood.

          You could easily turn around and flip it for $800 - $900 if you don't like it.

          USGI receiver/barrel/parts? BUY IT.
          Always looking for vintage Winchester and Marlin lever action rifles. Looking to sell? Know of one for sale? Drop me a line!

            It WAS at Barnwood. Went back today to give it a better look...gone. O well, next time. PAX

                Are you sure it was a "Barn" wood stock? do you even know what that is? http://photos.imageevent.com/badgerd...0Wood%20v2.pdf
                I beleive the Barnwood he was speaking of is the place of business selling the Garand

                Speaking of "Barn wood stocks" here is one given to me by the author of that article. A SA/GHS early stock that has had names carved into it . If it could only talk, who knows what it may have seen

                    Yea yea yea.........I haven't seen one at the LGS or the local grocery stores either. I already did my part with sending emails but where are the didicated locations where I can sign? I see the folks registering voters but that's it. Won't get the required signatures unless I see them at the usual places.
