Can only comment on what I have and it has been about 6 years now. I bought a field grade M1 form CMP and it is superb. If you do not like what you receive from them you can sell it for a profit and apply for another one.

As far as the FG Special, not many pics out there as they have only existed for a few weeks. We should be seeing more pics as they start to ship these new offerings. The only pic I've seen wasn't too bad, but it wasn't a great pic. I personally won't be buying them. |

I've only ever bought Rack of Field grade M1's from the CMP and I've never once been disappointed.
Heck I picked up an H&R field grade with a beautiful LMR barrel and only missing the gas plug and bolt to make it 100% HRA. Not bad for $495! Of course I went to the South store for an M1 Carbine and came out with 2 carbines the HRA Garand and 6 spam cans of ammo, (3 in bandoliers and 3 in boxes). |

I know y'all are talking about the field grade specials, but I'm very happy with my service grade special.

I got 12 FG rifles last year in the summer . The worst was a 4/4 barrel, the best 1/2, and the average was 2/2+ IIRC. Crowns looked ok to me.
A few had some light pitting below the wood line. One had some light pitting above. All had USGI wood that ranged from almost SG to what you would expect from a FG (I.E not rack grade wood) I'm happy with them. Some that were released after that point did look rougher, some the same or better. |

Glad you got it though.

I,m looking at getting a m1 garand from the cmp the one I,m looking at is the special field grade has anyone gotten one of these lately how do they look and how bad is the pitting if any thanks I'm also looking to get one. I assume, with the new barrel, that they'll be decent shooters. Right? Will it be capable of 2 moa? |
