Anyone heard from CMP lately? I'm in the 30,000 range, hoping they'll have something left by the time my number comes up.

everyone
should own at least one real 1911A1.
I put it right up there with the M1
Garand…the rifle which I have heard called
the greatest battle implement ever
devised, by someone who would know.
Any thoughts out there on the auction
1911’s versus the luck-of-the-draw 1911’s?
It seems to me (who is not a 1911 expert)
that they are still mixed bags, but that at
least you know in advance what it is
you’re buying.
Auctions are overpriced mix masters. Some people have more money then cense. Does CMP list some rare or early 1911 framed guns, yes. If you collect or "need" that one being auctioned well, your money your rules.
Luck of the draw ones. Are still USGI that have been there an done that. Mine was rebuilt twice. So, shipped overseas during WWII, then shipped to a Unit that served in Korea, rebuilt before Vietnam an went to the 16th Cav after rebuild an then rebuilt again in '80. Now, that is history even if it sat in an arms room.
Days of the $500 USGI 1911(A1)'s are gone. Get one while you can.

That's if Biden doesn't F it up for the CMP.
I missed the 2nd round buy, anyone know if there will be a 3rd? Life got in the way and totally missed the timeline
