The CMP has really changed,in my opinion ,not for the better.

I remember those days when 1911s went for about $25,Garands for about $50,forget about carbines.

Now to see used 1911s going for prices higher than the new items doesn't make it worth your tie and effort to try to get one.

They sell them "as is" with no guarantee. I would rather get a new one with the factory warranty.
