M1 Garand International Harvester T-Shirt

The tractor company that built battle rifles. International Harvester — the same Chicago-based company that built McCormick reapers, IH tractors, and the legendary IH Scout — produced roughly 337,000 M1 Garands between 1953 and 1956 to meet the Korean War-era surge in demand for service rifles. Springfield Armory and Winchester had built the wartime millions; by the early Cold War, the U.S. military needed more, and International Harvester's Evansville, Indiana plant retooled to deliver. IH Garands are one of the most sought-after maker variants in the M1 Garand collector world. The lower production run (about six percent of total Garand output), the late-production manufacturing dates that mean better preserved rifles, and the unique distinction of "the tractor company that made Garands" — all combine to put IH-marked rifles at the top of every serious collector's wishlist. Some IH receivers were partially produced by Springfield Armory and finished at IH (the famous "SA/IH" markings); others are pure IH manufacture. Either way, an IH stamp on a Garand receiver brings real money at gun shows and CMP matches. This shirt puts that maker mark on your chest. Built for M1 Garand collectors, CMP Garand match shooters, .30-06 reloaders, Korean War veterans and their families, agricultural-industry-to-firearms history readers, manufacturer-variant collectors, milsurp researchers, and anyone who's ever found "INTERNATIONAL HARVESTER" stamped on a receiver and felt their heart skip.
