| When you order a rifle from the CMP does it come with any paperwork stating what you have paid for it? |

The fancy "certificate" was usually mailed AFTER I received the rifle. Aloha, Mark Thats strange, I have ordered probably 20 times and my certificate alsways came in the box. Actually, I though it strange that they'd bother to send it at all...........just more work and postage $ for the CMP. BTW, that was in March '03. Back then it was $500 for the Springfield, SG grade. Aloha, Mark |

when I got my SA Service Grade it was $250, but took a full year to get to me. It was a 1944 according to the serial number and has a 44-09 barrel. At the time I wanted to shoot High Power and had a good 'smith tune it up a bit, the original barrel shoots fine after a recrown, had it refinished in a blackish H&K coating and bedded in a laminated stock. It still shoots amazing at 200 yards with the NM iron sights, and looks like it was built 5 years ago. Great rifles! I drove it hard for a couple years then switched to a mousegun. That M1 leads an easy retired life now, but when I lift it and shoulder it, I get that "can do" feeling.
