Anybody wanting a Garand, should go over to the CMP's website, and click on the" forums" tag...From what I've read, the racks at north store at least, are pretty empty, unless you want a M1-d or M1-c, not much of anything else.. they do have ammo. It seems that the CMP is way behind on mail orders, and as a result, they are sending little to the stores. I did read over there that Orest (CMP's CEO) said no service, field grades, in the stores until after the matches in August.. While Orest stated in another post that they (CMP) had plenty of crates left of Garands to open up, what they've been finding is a lot of pretty worn rifles, a lot of which are used for building the "CMP Specials" basically a reparked, rebuilt, restocked rifle, with a commercial barrel, and a Boyd stock.. I did read today, that they will have some I-H Garands as well as some more HRA's sometime in the near future...Something to keep your eyes peeled for. Anyway I do believe they are getting down to the bottom of the barrel.. It wasn't that long ago that the North store was open 5days a week, now they are open 3... The CMP's still the best game in town for a Garand, and when the SG's, and FG's, become available again, those wanting one better move quick.
