Yeah the heart of the former users is in the original woodI bought a CMP special grade M1 because I wanted a shooter not a collector.
I believe the specials get a new barrel and stock. The stock is very basic, so I recently used tung oil on it. That turned out pretty nice. It shoots great, and given how the CMP goes over them and replaces any parts that look bad I am confident it will function for years to come.
I wish they offered a "special", but with USGI wood. I would have gladly paid extra for that. I know I can but old USGI wood, but it is getting harder to find.
