See the post war ones all the time but haven’t seen but 2-3 of these. Good addition to the collection.

Picked up two US WW2 muzzle covers this morning from a local auction.

Have one I’m going to list on another forum - marked DAVE MFG Co 1944
I bought a 100 of these back in the early 2000s - all were either Victory or EA Brown - they seem to be the most common ones you see for sale Nice score

Thanks! I already had a couple of them. One is on my M1 Carbine and the other on my 1903A3. Neither of those would fit on my M1 Garand. Maybe one of these two will. I have not tried yet.

All the ones I have fit the Garand - I have been using old not to leave these on the rifles and they could draw moisture and cause rust

I will have to check if my two new ones fit the Garand. I don't leave them on the rifles in the safe. Put them on when I go to the range. Dress them up for going to town. Lol!
