First I gotta get the call. 18,1xx here.

Whatever they have, I'll take. No complaints.

They seem to be cranking them out in fairly rapid fashion.  I should be two to three weeks out.  18,6xx.

It does seem that the quantity leaving the building has increased, they should be in the 18,000 range shortly.

Does your Club Association have to be current at the time of buying a 1911, or just at the time of submitting the packet?

I moved since submitting my packet forever ago and am resubmitting the needed pages, but I believe the Garand Collector's Association is what I had, and I am no longer a member.

YMMV, but I used a VFW membership for the club requirement and it lapsed about 10 or 11 months ago, but they still sold me a pistol last month.

I picked up this 1911A1 back about the 28th or so, and meant to post pics, but I forgot.

So here they are.

Very nice Ithaca! I have a one a lot like it. It was built at the end of 1943 and delivered to the US Navy in Oakland California early 1944. Re Arsenaled at Albany, GA by the Marines in February 1981.

My concerns about being passed over have been misplaced.  I just got that sweet sweet call.

Picked Field grade.  Should be here in 24-48 hours.  Can't wait to share some photos!

Did they offer service grade?

I should be getting the call soon...

All three were available at the time of my call.  I chose Field.  Hoping to perhaps get one with an original finish.

Well, I picked her up today (FIELD GRADE).  1943 Remington Rand slide and frame.  I think the two may have left the factory together.  Appears to be original finish and I cannot find any rebuild marks.  Came with a Mec-Gar magazine and a Duroyd Mfg barrel from sometime between 79-80 I believe.  Serial number 1563322 on the frame.

I sincerely apologize for the potato pics.  It's EXACTLY what I was hoping to get though!!!

So choice!

Every era of handling, storage, firing, cleaning and use etched in unmistakable character, some permanently indecipherable to history

Holy shiith! HOLY SHITH!

You have Rockwell Hardness punch test marks on that left slide! Those are quite rare, were done at the factory to ensure the metallurgy of the batch was satisfactory.

Seen here on one of my friend John Holbrook's 3 Switches, perhaps the 29th Switch he once owned, are Rockwell Hardness punch marks.

These were generally arrayed fore and aft, high and low or as here in a low slide line above the dust cover

It was just announced that applications will be open for another round of 1911 sales in January. Looks like everybody in the first eighteen or nineteen thousand will get theirs without any issue and then people who missed out two years ago will have a chance.

I was hoping they would open it up for everybody, whether you bought one on the first round or not. Oh well. I wonder how many apps they get this time with 19K+ ineligible to reapply?

Hang tight.  They got to 500 past mine before I got the call.  

One thing: my FFL guy's license had expired and they needed a copy of the new one.  Not sure if that caused a delay or not, but they do have an email address you can send an updated one too, if his/hers has expired.

Picked it up today.

Colt slide.  1944 Remington Rand frame (serial 1752XXX, has FJA proof).  A few nicks and whatnot, obviously wasn't a safe queen, but looks great.

I am 100% happy with it!  I really thought I missed out on these when I had such a high RNG.  

And the case they ship it in is top notch.  The CMP is doing God's work.
