Hello follks,
I'm a new member here and excited about what I see. My order for a CMP Service Grade Springfiield Special is in so now I wait. BUT, can anyone help set my expectations on what I may get when my new toy arrives?

Welcome aboard C1. Enjoy the site and all it has to offer. Keep us posted on your CMP purchase.
Will do Bill. Been shooting and reloading since I was 14, finally getting around to buying a Garand. BTW, I'm a former Antelope Valley Resident myself.Quote:

I was so happy with my 1st SA SG CMP garand I ordered a 2nd before I cleaned the 1st. Both are great. not sure about your area but finding a M1 garand in what I would call rack grade or worse for under 1k is not going to happen. CMP the only sight unseen place I would purchase a gun from. You just cant expect better than the service grade criteria(you may get it) both mine where/are great shooters $$$ only stops me from buting another. If I stopped shooting for 8 months I could by another....shoot or buy shoot or buy......trigger finger wins for now I shoot.
HOLD THE SHOW!!!! I see you got a SPECIAL....how can you go wrong..............thats 2k at any dealer near me!
Palmdale, then after several moves ended up in Ft Worth.Quote:
