That’s crazy it took five months to get one. Did they notify you earlier than that so you knew you were receiving one?

@@Wisconsin-Ordnance no. I had to call them multiple times, each time no follow-up. I have been tracking my account daily, and yesterday I saw they had posted my M1 in the past transactions part of my purchase history. That transaction has a date from four weeks ago, but was just put on the website. It was a comedy of delays, runs-around, poor communication and lack of follow through. The staffers had charming accents, however. I am looking forward to having the Garand, but it has definitely been an ordeal.

@@larsrodbok1285 thanks for the info, I put in for another gun (m1903) and it’s coming up on close to a month with no communications. I’ll just have to keep checking online to see if it shows up. I called a few times and sent and email to customer service but haven’t heard any updates yet.

@@Wisconsin-Ordnance gun arrived today. Good luck with your purchase.👍

Takes around a month or so.

Service Grade was the most expensive at $900.

Field Grade was 800 and rack grade was 700

Doesn't have to be pretty.. I want function and the way it looked during combat ww II. Please tell me what grade you would recommend for me. Thanks.

I paid $900 for this service grade m1

Agreed! Awesome piece of history!

Very few M-1,s are unmolested, Mostly all where rebuilt after the war. The few m-1s that where not rebuilt ,poss never left the states. A unmolested m-1 cold bring about 3000- 7000 dollars. I have a Winchester built in feb1944 all original that I bought in 1982.

What parts do you make?

That sucks. Haha move to America?

You need to get rid of Justin.

Ships to your house. They run all the background checks on their end just like an FFL would prior to shipping

M2 ball 152gr or M1 ball 173gr AP 163gr.

Yes that helps authenticate the stock. The "P" is a factory proof marking.

Just one.

What a shame

The Clinton and AL gore crap

That sounds awesome. Shame I wasn’t alive until 2001 and hadn’t taken an interest until roughly 2023

Yep, back in the 90's and early 2000s all the M1's I received were very similar to yours, and those were luck of the draw, coming directly out of the Army storage crates. I don't remember paying more than $495 for any of them from CMP, I had 30 Garands at one time, all would have graded Field + or Service grade, once CMP started that Grading system to adjust pricing. My last 2 USGI keepers are an all-correct H&R w TE and MW 0, still has packing grease in the action (now it would be on the CMP Auction site), and a Springfield that appears to have been re Arsenal'd with all beautiful birch wood, Square boxed proof "P" ( I was told that Augusta Arsenal specific, I don't know, TE and MW <1, and one all correct and "matching" Italian Breda, NOT put together from a kit, like was happening when GFCC was importing receivers a few at time and you could buy the complete Italian (less receiver) parts kits from AIM, of course none of those would have had the correct matching numbered or manufacturing markings. Never saw a Garand I didn't like, well almost those poorly made CAI reproduction and cobbled together Garands were less than desirable.

I would gladly take them! haha.

The hard-cases are a "once per calendar year". So if you order 3 guns in 1 year, you get 1 case. Wisconsin said that this wasn't his first Garand order from CMP of the 2023 calendar year.

The new black hard cases CMP uses are terrible. I gave mine away.

I just sent mine in today I’ll let you know. This guy had to wait from 14 of December till January 4

Around a month after they receive the order.

so i emailed them about to ask, and they said "We have well over 3,000 orders on the EStore for the surplus ammunition, so it taking time to get to all of them."

@@kevinlong3992 it’s crazy to me that ammo orders are getting in the way of rifle orders. I sent mine in and I figure I won’t see the gun for 2 months and I already spent the 900$.

@@sethison2727 did they charge the $900 already? my card has not been charged yet, which was one reason i wanted to check in. I dont know how they usually - charge when the get the order or charge when they ship..

Because it is a rack grade, I would assume.

Did you get it? Was it worth it?

@@iowasucks9494still waiting. Sent my packet in early January… hoping to hear back soon

@@The_SmorgMan 😬 might just spend the extra cash and get one from gunbroker. My contract just ended in the air force im a civilian now. Ive been overseas since i was 19 and never had the chance to get one. Dont know if i can wait that long haha. But when you do get it id like to hear about it if you remember this comment

@@iowasucks9494nah… tempting but I’m ok with waiting. Not my first M1. Yeah if I remember I’ll let you know

You could get better or could get worse than this rifle when it comes down to it. Either way it’s a gamble on exact condition, for all I know mine could be the worst service grade they have or the best. I’m simply sharing insight to give viewers an idea of what a service grade looks like.

Disservice? For crying out loud, you're buying a used military rifle from as old as 80 years. You're not going to get a brand new rifle.

On their website they exposing it pretty well, check on so videos aswell
