M1 rifles were produced during WWII by the government's Springfield Armory, which has been making the Army's weapons since the 1790s, and also by Winchester.
During the Korean War the Department of Defense decided more M1 production was required, and from 1953-56 M1s were made by International Harvester and by Harrington & Richardson.
In the late 1950s Beretta, which had acquired the machinery used by Winchester to produce M1s during WWII, made M1s in Italy for NATO.

Will m1 garand bayonet fit 03a3 springfield?
No, the M1 Garand bayonet will not fit the 03A3 Springfield rifle. The M1 Garand and 03A3 Springfield have different bayonet lug designs and dimensions, so their bayonets are not interchangeable.
What was the American standard rifle of World War 2?
The M1 Garand was the standard issue rifle of US forces during the Second World War. However, the issue of the M1 hadn't been fully implemented at the onset of the war, so many units (particularly in the Pacific) were still equipped with the M1903, and a number of the Iver Johnson rifles were also issued throughout the Armed Forces in order to supplement the Garand.
Which battles was the M1 Garand used in during World War 2?
If the Americans were fighting in the battle the M1 Garand was there also. In the pacific and European theatre they were used in every battle America was in in the second world war. While the above is generally true regarding the European theatre, but at the outbreak of the war, there were several units which still had not fielded the Garand yet, particularly in the Marine Corps. The first battles in the Pacific saw units armed primarily with the Springfield M1903, rather than the Garand.
