They should have one variety of Service grades for around $625. HRA are in-stock now I believe.

Quoted:
I have read that the CMP is about the only place to buy sub $1000 M1 Garand rifles. After checking them out, I see that they are sold out of all but the most expensive of the bunch. Is there anyplace else that sells less expensive Garand rifles? I'm looking for one to send off to Schuffs Parkerizing to get the Mini-G treatment. It would be a shame to ruin an M1 in $1200-$3000 shape. Just get a service grade for $625 + shipping. Another option is to find an agent on the CMP forums to pick out a field grade. They also have some stripped "C" grade receivers that you could order and have Shuff quote you for the rest of the parts, though that would be a more expensive option than the service or field grade rifles. If you mailorder a service grade, it will likely be 4 or 5 months before you actually receive it. Another option is to check out the CMP forums and post a WTB ad or take a look at the following links: EE AD #1 EE AD #2 |

If it shows on the site that they are accepting orders, it is in-stock. |

If it shows on the site that they are accepting orders, it is in-stock. Read through the CMP forums. They are back ordered and have to go pull more out of storage and grade. They know they have them so they're accepting orders. They are substituting Springfields for the HRA orders because they are so far behind on pulling them and grading. |

I sent my paperwork and it was received 6/27. It's been 2 weeks (granted, last week was the 4th), and my order hasn't even made it to the E-store yet. Gives you an idea of just how backlogged they probably are.
If you need it NOW! then look elsewhere. I have a feeling I'll be waiting longer than the estimated 60 days which is fine by me to get a bargain M1. Just wish I knew generally when it was going to smack around my credit card. My only regret is I didn't order 2! |

Just order an HRA.
Best deal around. Before you know it, you will have one. |

The North Store @ Camp Perry has been putting out a few Rack and Field grade guns each day. |

FWIW : As of yesterday they were processing orders for HRA rifles from 03/31. |

Maybe they held me back because I ordered other items in addition to the rifle. Regardless, they split up the order into 3, all TBD. |

Between 2007 and 2013, I have ordered six M1s through the CMP. The average wait time for them to arrive has been about 3 months. The exceptions were the two M1 Carbines I won on auction. Those arrived in about a month. I also put in an order on June 3rd for one of the limited quantity IHCs, and I think I should have that rifle this coming week.
