This is a new to me CMP rack grade Springfield Armory M1 I just purchased. It looks to me to have the original barrel, and the only part I see that is not SA is the bolt, which is WRA. The muzzle number is 5+ and the throat number is 4. I originally bought it to just shoot every now and then, and of course for the historical aspect. I went to the CMP North store to buy it, and the National Matches just happened to be going on. I am now thinking I would like to compete next year, and I know the barrel I have now would not be very accurate. I bought a new production Criterion 30 06 barrel from the CMP and am looking for a local gunsmith to install it. My question is the configuration of the rifle as it is now collectable? If I looked at the numbers correctly the receiver was made in November of 1943 and the barrel in April of 1943. Thanks for the responses.
