The barrels for International Harvester Garands were LMR, which stands for Line Materials Co. http://www.scott-duff.com/WhoHowManyWhen.htm
A few other things that are worth noting: LMR barrels are very good but the VAR barrels are the ones sought after by competition shooters. They were made in Denmark in the 1960s, GREAT shooting barrels. LMR barrels are in high demand but more so for collectors putting together an IHC Garand.
International Harvester did not make M1 Garand rifles for WWII, they made them in the 1950s for the Korean war.
While International Harvester Garands are cool, barring the odd ball super rare collectables, the Winchesters are the most sought after. Second place is a toss-up between International Harvester and Harrington & Richardson (although H&R usually wins). Last place goes to Springfield Armory.
I don’t compete in service rifle matches anymore but the above was true a few years back when I was still active.
