#198738 - 03/29/22 12:11 PM M1 Garands Getting Scarce ?
Uncle Mike Knife Enthusiast Registered: 10/09/21 Posts: 267 Loc: Wisconsin	Hi, I have noticed that the CMP is down to one Garand group "in Stock". It's a $1100, Expert which has a new commercial barrel and a new commercial stock. That's it right now. What I'm hearing is that unless they can get some foreign returns through the army the well has gone/going dry. If you always wanted one I'd start looking around.If anyone needs info/advice feel free to contact me, regards, Mike _________________________ “The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.” Benjamin Franklin Mike C RKCC No. 825

I could be wrong on that. Back in '08 I got one from CMP w/o the stock. Bore was a bit murky but worked fine. Wayne _________________________ Top Dog

That looks like the auction page, which is a bit of a different critter. The auction rifles will likely continue after the main flow dries up, but not for long. _________________________ Rob

thevalueman Knife Enthusiast Registered: 02/04/08 Posts: 2830 Loc: Georgia	I've been enlightened.... didn't realize the difference, however price wise....it appears tremendous!! I don't have the need(addition) therefore I haven't done my due diligence.....I've got my M1 carbines, and that's about the extent of milsurps...I'm lacking in that area, and it's probably a good thing... :-)Rocky _________________________ Rocky Whitaker RKCC#25

Uncle Mike Knife Enthusiast Registered: 10/09/21 Posts: 267 Loc: Wisconsin	Hi, you guys are funny, regards, Mike Hi, I deleted the YouTube do to strong language. I'm not sure if it would be permissible. It's the scene in "Good Fellas" were "Tommy" asked "What do you mean I'm funny." It's a classic, Mike Edited by Uncle Mike (04/01/22 05:26 PM) Edit Reason: deleted youTube _________________________ “The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.” Benjamin Franklin Mike C RKCC No. 825
