You couldn’t convince a ripoff if it says, $350 ripoff fee on the invoice$95 per gun, for test firing?
What are they shooting, hard cast gold?

Admittedly I was happy I didn’t get one of the green re-repark jobs. I probably would have sold it if I did and kept shopping for a better example. Even though the CMP is luck of the draw they rarely overpromise so anyone that isn't happy isn't going to lose any money should they decide not to keep what they get.
I don't have any problem with the lottery system or the one per customer rule. At least they're making an effort to keep it fair. There's been more than a few people over the years that have made a living reselling CMP guns. So many in fact they finally put a limit on Garands a little while back.
Earlier on in this thread was a poster who wrote that the 1911 he used during Desert Storm was re-parked and looked like a CMP service grade
I guess anything is possible but by then 92s were in service as a rule...

The first surplus release of 1911 was around 1960s. Matching parts. I paid $ 45 to the guy that bought it.
Buy one because it's the right thing to do. Supports a non-profit and civilian training programs.
How much money does the NRA spend on supporting WLP and his life style. Give it to the CMP instead and get something besides a magazine full of advertising and donations to a loser presidential candidate.
