Has the CMP gotten any more customer-friendly in the past few years? When I expressed some interest in making a purchase from their Anniston Alabama store about 10 years ago, they were downright rude. Haven't had any contact with them since! I never had a bad experience with them.

Just sold a Springfield Armory correct grade,1954 build, I got from CMP.It was a Greek return in like new condition. Bought it for 900.00 and sold it for 1200.00. It wasn't a safe queen, put around 800 rounds of Greek HXP through it.

I understand the CMP is experimenting with producing new M1 Garands. Supposedly there was some discussion on the CMP Facebook site. I don't have Facebook so I can't confirm. This may be an option for those of you who want one but aren't eligible for an M1 via the CMP or don't want to pay gun show prices.

For liberals and anarchists, power and control is opium, selling envy is the fastest and easiest way to get it. TRR. Communists just don't jump out of helicopters.

I don't think a new reproduction Garand will be cheap.

I don't think a new reproduction Garand will be cheap. I have to wonder what it will do to current M1 values and if there is even any demand. Springfield tried selling M1's about 20 years ago and they were only in the M1 business for a couple of years before getting out. kwg

Doubt a repro M1 will have any effect on the price of original. And, I don't think there would be much interest/demand.

Unlikely it was not issued. These late guns didn't receive the use of earlier guns, so they reflect this in condition.

kwg They are not. They are doing reworks on the Philippine guns right now. CMP is not going to do new manufacturing in the near future, it's never been a conversation from the leadership team.

The last I knew, the company that bought up the H&R rights, PSA, briefly talked about a Garand. I wonder if both PSA and the CMP are working on the project ?? I have 3 M1's and I have loaded up some ammo. I'm good for years to come but the guys and girls at AR15.com are all excited. kwg Judge for yourself. upload pics in a link

I guess I'm not as tied in as I thought.

Just when we think we are a know it all. LMAO. And I'm not even really in the CMP loop at all anymore and was reading bits and pieces of the totally newly built guns coming.
OTOH armorers and powers that be are two totally different things...

Not so hard with CNC and 1000 bucks and more for the old M1s now.
