Did you order the HRA Service Grade? If you got the "official" switch email, would you take the SA Service Grade instead? I got the switch request and decided to stick with the HRA.
The CMP website was updated over a week ago to change the available rifles from HRA to SA, so the SA Service Grades are available again if anyone is interested. The HRAs won't be available again until they build up another stockpile of them. I guess there are still lots of rifles for them to process!
If anyone is interested in the International Harvesters, they are now being listed on the CMP auction site. And, wow, are they bringing some big bucks.

UpperMarlboroman,
I ordered the H&R Service Grade on 8/30 and did not receive the email option to switch to a SA, at least not yet.
I don't know if I would switch or not. I am new to the M1 Garand so don't have a lot of info on either. I thought I saw someone on the CMP Forum who ordered the H&R on the same date as me, switched to the SA after being offered that and received his rifle on 10/31. That may be enough to get me to switch.
Thoughts anyone?

The SA have name appeal and could have receivers that saw combat, the HRA's seem to be built a bit better and you have a chance of getting an LMR barrel (very accurate).

So I sent a reply into CMP Customer Service and told them that since this is my first M1, I would be open to receiving the SA or the HRA. I did add a few comments about what my desired SA would look like as well.
Today I noticed that the gun case has been added to my order and it is switched to SA and being shipped. I hope I made the right choice but I don't know how you could go wrong with your first one......Right?

I received my HRA M1 Service Grade Garand today. Hit my CC on 12/13 and shipped yesterday 12/16 Fedex overnight. The rifle is in great condition especially the wood stock.

Somebody at the CMP must like me. They processed my application and shipped my M1 within 6 weeks. Surprised about that, and not having any 30-06 ammo, I ordered a can of Greek ammo day before yesterday. The website said it was in stock but likely would require a 30-60 day wait. I just received an email that it shipped this morning. Only downside is the hole being burnt in my credit card.

That is what they stamp on their replacements stocks. Usually they are dry, so be ready to oil that stock up.

Mailed my order for my first M1 on 2/1. HRA Service Grade. Says 120-180 days for delivery.
