This is an Air Force Performance Grade National Match Type II M1
Garand rifle SA 5395970.
These were built into match rifles by USAF armorers at the USAF Competitive
Weapons Shop at Lackland AFB. Very few AFPG Garands made it into civilian
hands, far fewer than Navy B's as it was common for the AF team member to
"acquire" their rifles upon retirement and very few were sold to state shooting
associations and clubs through the DCM. After the largest supporter of the
competitive marksmanship in the USAF, Gen. Curtis LeMay, passed away the
USAF NM rifle program died off. The USAF then turned most of the remaining
AFPG M1s into drill rifles (welded and plugged barrels) or parade
rifles(refinished for appearances).
