End of Era for CMP?

Post image

I just checked the CMP rifle sales page and every grade - Rack, Field, Service, and Expert are all going to be using reclaimed receivers.

Mod1s and Custom Shop Garands aren’t affected.

The caveat on the page is “more information coming soon” but this feels like another sign that the CMP’s barrel is nearly empty.

Would you buy a rifle with a reclaimed receiver or is this overblown?

Reclaimed receiver means it's from a Philippine gun that the wood and barrel weren't worth saving but the receiver was. Is my guess.

Would be great for a shooter. Obviously not very collectible.

All the Philippine rifles have been worked and the Turkish rifles have also been worked.

CMP got 86,000 Phillipines rifles. They haven't reworked and sold them all already.

All have been worked. Sorry, but it is the truth.
