Original US Surplus M1 Garand Rear Sight Spring Cover

This M1 Garand rear sight spring cover is an original U.S. surplus part made from stamped steel with a parkerized finish. It suits collectors, restorers, and anyone assembling a correct rear sight setup for an M1 rifle. Moreover, these covers came from mixed wartime and postwar production, so maker details and years of manufacture can vary. The spring cover is a small part of the Garand rear sight assembly, but it helps complete the sight system and preserve the rifle’s proper military profile. Early M1 rear sights included a cover as part of the assembly, and period examples show production changes as manufacture evolved over time. Because of that, original covers remain useful for restoration work and for replacing missing or mismatched parts.

Original Garand rear sight cover details

This listing is for an original U.S. surplus example rather than a reproduction. It features stamped steel construction and a parkerized finish, which gives it the right military look for a period-correct build. In addition, condition is good overall. Since these are surplus parts, finish tone, small machining details, and maker characteristics may differ from one piece to another.

Correct part for restoration and spare parts kits

Small sight parts matter when a rifle is being restored with original components. Therefore, an authentic spring cover helps maintain the look and character of the Garand’s rear sight assembly. It also gives buyers a real U.S. service part instead of a newly made substitute.
