M1 garand identification help

[crashlanding]

Renewing a love affair with an M1 my dad and I partnered up on back in the mid 80's. The rifle is in excellent condition, operates buttery smooth and accurate. Bought a bunch of Greek hxp from the cmp when the market got flooded and this ammunition was cheap, I intend to start shooting it again. The serial # dates the rifle to April of 1945, Springfield armory, all parts are marked SA except the barrel, I've researched and can't figure out the markings, any help would be appreciated. Looks dated 51
