[QUOTE="Shadowrider, post: 1668116, member: 3099"] Well these posts have me wondering about mine. The finish is what I'd call pristine for an M1. It may or may not have been reparked. I say that with the barrel wear numbers in mind. The finish is pretty much perfect on mine except that you can tell it has been fired some. The small bearing surface on the topside back of the bolt has some shine and it's corresponding surfaces on the inside top of the receiver you can tell has some use, as do the locking lugs. But beyond that it's very close to new from what I can tell. I haven't disassembled the trigger group so I can't say how much finish wear it has on it's working surfaces. But everything seems to be in fantastic condition on mine. Does anyone know if they reparked everything as SOP at arsenal maintenance? I'm assuming that mine has been due to the utter lack of handing marks on the outside metal. It does have some scratches on the gas cylinder but they are very extremely minor and it's still very black in color. Coolhand where did you get an electronic form like that? Is an Excel template available for purchase? [/QUOTE]
