Well its really sad when i dreamed about the trip last night. I got a correct grade, service grade with a 5 digit serial and lockbars, an M1c, and something that was really special but had a beat to hell stock. I guess in a month we`ll see if it was a premonition---LOL.

Here is the list so far:

 

I'M IN:

Intercooler

Stickle

Devsadvocate

 

INTERESTED/NOT SURE:

NickJC

MedicYeti

Fishpaw

If i missed you post here and I'll add you to the list

I've been dreaming about this a bit as well. Looks like I'll be picking up 3 Garands when I'm out there, plus as much ammo as I can bear. Hopefully you guys can help me pick out some real winners, CMP Forums have been saying that the pickings are pretty good as of late.

Come on fellas, lets get a head count! Just say if you are in or not so we can start planning transportation... Only 2 weeks to go!!!!!!!!!

They just released some .308 GARANDS! YAY!

Is that good?

I'm gonna get 1 or 2 .308's. Dude its a garand in .308...... hells yeah!

Can they shoot regular .308 rounds? Like any I can buy?

Eric,

 

I know I was originally up for this trip but now I am way too busy to make the trip.

 

I may have to order or see if you guys can pick something nice up.

Count me in!

WE NEED TO GET A HEAD COUNT! If you do not say definate yes by Monday you are not being counted in. If you are on the original list as a yes just post again to confirm. I am trying to plan transportation and its kinda hard to do if you dont know how many people are coming. Next Friday is coming quick... Also I am not going to be picking anything up for people that cant make it. Dont waste your time PM'ing me asking me to do so. Your loss, take a gamble and order one.

I'm in.

Just got back yesterday, approx. 23 hours round trip (left Friday at 2130~2200, I made it back home at 2000hrs)... we loaded down the car quite heavily!

 

 

Gotta watch the bumps:

 

 

My share of what's in there...

here is just a taste of my haul

 

TOP TO BOTTOM:

M1C sniper

5.79 mil Springfield(RARE)

December 1941 Springfield

1917 Eddystone

 

They were out there and did look nice, but the service grades interested me more. Maybe in due time but for now I am going GI

The .308's are new barrels, stocks, ect. Essentially they are brand new guns. They work with the same clips for an m1

I was contemplating purchasing one... They look real nice. Maybe next time. I need to learn more about them.

Nice pick ups guys. So do they have an abundance of good quality rifles there at this time? I need to pick up one more Garand as I have two rifles, but three kids. Last two I got were both 1 on muzzle and throat and I would like to keep to that.

Typical service grade was about 1 MW

I thought you had to use an FFL with the CMP when you are from NJ, or does that only apply to mail orders? Im planning on stopping on my way out west.

 

 

thanks.

Yes, the FFL requirement only applies for mail order. If you have an FID card and meet all the other qualifications you can buy at the CMP Stores.

Well I am going again tomorrow... YAY! 2 CMP trips in the same week!
