Got this in an email...I know I know...but still, has anybody heard anything about this?




This came from within Anniston this morning. CMP doesn't
       know much about it. But my source from inside of Anniston said
       that they are moving all of the rifles, pistols and ammo, in
       order toprepare for destruction, and that the only thing they
       are doing at the Arsenal is preparing some troops who are
       leaving for Afghanistan.There are at least 8 crates of rifles
       that have already being destroyed. NRA has already verified that
       this has begun. I talked with the NRA this morning, after I got
       the phone call.


       The rifles have not been stripped for parts. I have been told
       that this has already begun. Rick

Bullshit.



"CMP doesn't know much about it."

"I talked with the NRA." - Where's the proof?

"NRA verified that this has begun." - Again, where's the proof?



People will believe *anything* that comes in an email.

Ask Rick if he has any more information. I'm too busy talking to these "hot hot sluts" who apparently really "lust for my cock". Evidently if I give them my credit card number I'm totally in for that and some viagra.

I doubt it.  They accepted my order last week for a service grade Winchester.

Gee, hope I don't get it as a box of shredded metal and toothpicks

Considering that I just got an email from the CMP regarding availability of WRA rifles for sale (within the last two weeks) I would say this is pure bull shit.

I was at the North store last Thursday for the first time ever.  Racks were full, store was open and seemed fully staffed.



Only bad news was all I had money for was a hoodie and not a rifle.



Again, my first time there but seemed to be business as usual considering I was one of 3 customers at the time.

I think the Anniston arsenal (not the CMP) may demil worn out/surplus weapons.  Perhaps this is what is being talked about.  I believe they rehab/rebuild Abrahms tanks there as well.

Yeah, that makes perfect sense. Well, except for the part about the pistols, which the CMP doesn't sell. And the NRA, who wouldn't have more info about it than the CMP itself. And the idea that the CMP wouldn't know what was going on if all of their inventory was being liquidated.


Doesn't DRMO have a gun-shredder in Anniston? That would make a lot more sense- that they are destorying weapons being removed from service that can't be surplussed (because of law/ EO/ policy).

I don't think that CMP has ever sold pistols, IIRC they can't as the program isn't designed for it.

Orest has in the past confirmed his part in detroying U.S. surplus arms inventory. I have no doubt that small arms are still being destroyed. I doubt the CMP is participating, but I don't doubt the the Govt. would reclaim their inventory for destruction.

You don't want one of those M1 Garand pistols anyway.  They kick like a mule and will cave in your forehead if you're not careful.

Someone over at ZS said he just toured Anniston and saw a bunch of M-14's being destroyed.

M14's are being rebuilt to be used by our forces in A-stan and Iraq.  I would have a hard time believing any serviceable rifles are being destroyed.

ETA CMP is now selling M14 parts sets ( all parts except barrel and receiver ) maybe that is what he saw.
