I resisted as long as I could...and bought an M1 Garand at the CMP North Store about 5 years ago.
Now I compete with it, and I see the attraction. My receiver on my rifle was made in September 1941.
If only it could talk,,,
Thank you, CMP!
Glad you're enjoying your rifle and competing! We are looking forward to seeing you on range soon!
I have a mosin that was made in 1916 it only cost 60 bucks
It can talk, but it only knows the words "Bang!" and "Ping!"
@@ericsmith5919 Hahaha, still a more expansive vocabulary than most guns who only know one of these!
That’s neat. Owning a piece of history…whether you’d shoot it or not. If only it could talk.
I was first introduced when this show was under the DCM. My wife's uncle, an Iwo Jima Marine, purchased match grade .45's, M-14's and M-1's. Since then, the 1960's -1980's, the prices have shot through the roof under CMP. Still a great program but kind of expensive for guns the tax payers have already paid for.
CMP isn't a government agency. It doesn't get the rifles for free.
@@THall-vi8cpIt's government affiliated selling guns that have already been paid for by the taxpayers to the taxpayers. Make that make sense please
@@Turd_Ferguson538 and, government affiliated or not aside, the extra requirements are a big turn off, and frankly I question the entire purpose behind them. If you can pass a NICS check, then you've met the requirements to buy one. Period. The range time and other stuff is just arbitrary for the sake of being arbitrary.
Who sets the Price??
Bureaucrats, who pocket the money via Salaries,….for rich collectors.
It's one of the few ways the government generates revenue. They were bought, but not by us. They were bought that long ago.
they make it sound soooo simple when in fact your jumping thru hoops rules regulations club memberships marksmanship courses or experience verification citizenship etc for an old surplus CRAZY.
... and yet they say you shouldn't have a valid identification to vote....hmm. yeah that makes sense.
Well, that rules out buying one of these.
I feell like that this is just way to many steps buy a surplus rifle
I stopped into Aniston on July 22nd with my father-in-law and brother-in-law, and I want to thank the people at the store for giving us a memorable experience. I picked up my 2nd Garand (first one I actually purchased) and everyone went above and beyond being helpful and friendly. The process could not have been any better, and I just want you to know we truly appreciate what y'all do. Thank you.
🙌 That’s amazing! We are truly blessed to have the greatest staff. It’s awesome to hear that your experience was perfect!
Thank you so much!
Southern hospitality!
Love my CMP M1, got it about 10 years ago, wish I had gotten a couple more back then for my boys
I’ve bought more M1 rifles than I can count on one hand from y’all. Every one of them are unique and a piece of history. I’m glad I have each and every one of them in my collection❤
I want one, but I don't want to go through all that to buy one😢
If only my country had this program. I would sign up for these in a heartbeat! The M1 is such a beaut
Love you guys and your work in keeping such beautiful rifles relevant, will you ever be opening new stores and ranges?
I got one that was issued for Korea, brought back and restocked. It's so beautiful
I went though to Ling process to buy one of your A1 1911 and it's my most prized firearm that I will be it's care giver until I'm gone, then hopefully the next owner will also cherish it.
CMP , great organization saving history and teaching Americans how to defend our Country.
Thank you
Great info, they make it too easy really.
Too many hoops to jump through when I can just go to my local gun shop and be out in 30 minutes.
For 3-4 times the price they are there for just a little paperwork. And they send them right to your door.
So it's more expensive through this method???? 😐@@planedr
@@planedrMaybe right to your door, but not to mine. Not legal where I live. Not for a long time. I bought mine at a gun store for $275.00.
@@reynoldcindrich4851 They've gone up a lot since then
@@reynoldcindrich4851 Maybe 40 years ago what the hell? You can't even get a drill rifle for that much. Garands are bare minimum $1200.00 in today's market
This is the most up to date and easy to understand process for a CMP purchase…mines expired before COVID… time to do it again 👏🤙🏽
We are glad this made it easier to understand! Hope you enjoy your next rifle ;)
@@CivilianMarksmanshipProgram The folks at the Anniston AL branch were very helpful, knowledgeable, and patience in making my decision; history of the rifle and grading was explained again where I could understand the method👍. And a big shout out to my friend Kate if she’s still works there ❤️🙏
Got my H&R CMP correct grade years ago! Handpicked it in Anniston when the pickin's were good!
We hope it's treating you well!
I have two M1's purchased from the CMP and have attended the M1 Advanced Maintenance Class.
Or just.. Ya know. Find and buy one. And not jump through 12 additional hoops. It's not impossible to find surplus rifles anymore, online sales are a thing now.
Problem is the outrageous prices a lot of sellers ask. The CMP ones are still expensive but it's not as bad as what most guys ask for their M1. Stinks man, a lot of these older guys got M1s for 500 a rifle and own several then try and sell one or two off for three or four times that original price.
If you can find real M1 Garands for cheaper than this program offers, I'd be surprised. But if you do, let me know!
All I’m hearing with their requirements is “Fudd alert 🚨 “
@@mustardbiscuits9750I thought the same thing lol
I bought one for $525, two for $700ish. A couple of years later I sold two of them for $1400 a piece to people too lazy to fill out a little paper work. So, yeah. I’ll sell you one for $1900.
I've always been intrigued by the Garand and have wanted one for a major amount of time and it's been a huge dream of mine. Unfortunately I'm still 10mo away for my 21st birthday but when that time comes, I'll get my concealed carry and look into this.
So..... you're going to concealed carry an M1??
Well that title is very misleading, why would someone want to jump through these extra hoops just to buy an M1 garand
I grew up with a Springfield Armory M1, both my father and uncle used one in Ww2 and Korea and were damned good with it. I learned to tear it down and reasseble at 10 years of age. We did it on the kitchen floor for entertainment. That was 60 years sgo and the old rifle still works like it did the day it was born.
I'm on my HS's MCJROTC Rifle Team, we went to Anniston, AL for the 3PAR regionals, best experience I'll ever get from HS.
Thank you CMP!
That's fantastic! We are glad you had such great time!!
I got my M1 Garand today!!! Thank you so much CMP!!!!
Garand superfan here...just picked up a rack cmp m1 and could not be happier!!! waited over 20 years to be able to get a hold of one of these historic rifles!! looking forward to my family enjoying it for generations!
Glad you love it! Are you gonna take it to the range?
Im so glad I bought my M1 Garand back in 2015
Already have one love shooting it
😎👍
This program needs to be beefed up
They make it sound easy
I'm excited to do this!
I'll be filling out all the forms ASAP. Glad that I found this program
Welcome aboard!
The speaker on this video has done a great job !!! Wow ,,, winner / winner 🏅 CHICKEN DINNER !!!
Jesus Christ, you want more paperwork than the feds do for a modern rifle, to buy a surplus rifle?
What a joke.
I have five of them, all from private sales, all made by I.H. no paperwork, i also have other military rifles, enclueding two Brownings that my uncle had .
The problem i have with the CMP is all the hops you jave to jump through. I can see paying some sort of membership dues. But requiring marksmanship training or equivalent is absurd. Theyre basically acting as gatekeepers to military surplus that the CIVILIANS should be able to access.
I say they should be abolished.
Awesome
made e5 last month, seems like this showing up in my recommended videos was meant to be
Thank you for this. Seen too many fools trying to sell them marked up at ridiculous prices.
Tell them you'll just wait for the estate sale.
They are not cheap through the CMP. They realized there is money to be made, they're not doing you a favor. Already bought and paid for through taxes and blood, shouldn't cost another arm and leg for surplus material.
@@allanfranklin9615It is much cheaper through CMP than anywhere else. Gone are the days where you could buy military surplus for $80, stop living in the past.
@allanfranklin9615 exactly what I was thinking
@@allanfranklin9615so it's better to buy it from a seller. Got it. Thanks👍 I'm doing my research as my first gun. And I want it to be a m1 garand😂 after that, maybe a Colt super 38🤔
Make sure has manual ..there's a short page think was fourth page on sniper usage..adjustment for windage...speed
Since the letter M is pronounced starting with a vowel (em), we use the article that goes with vowel sounds: an.
I am 83. When I was 15 I got on a bus in Englewood, CO and rode it to downtown Denver to the Dave Cook Sporting Goods store. There I put $75 on the counter and was given TWO M1 rifles still in cosmoline. I didn't need an ID or proof of age. The 2nd Amendment still applied. I rode the bus back home and no one took a second glance. I removed the factory finish and spent several days rubbing the rilfes stocks with boiled Linseed Oil. The finish became rock hard and looked and felt like glass. They were rifles in my gun collection, which included a late 18th century English Royal Armory muzzle loading rifle, an 1896 Stevens falling block 22 rifle with an hexagonal barrel that had been shot so much the rifling was almost completely worn away, a Stevens 12 gauge pump shotgun, and my favorite, a Western Field 22 long rifle with 4X scope. Other kids my age spent their money on 3.2% beer to act "cool". I spent my money on ammo. 😀
When I went off to college my younger brother sold my gun collection.
Shooting guns isn't really one of my interests. But I do love history (I assume that is why RUclips recommended this video to me) and the M1 Garand is one of those few firearms that I would actually be interested in shooting someday. Though I will likely never pass the firearm proficiency course that you mentioned in this video, I haven't shot a gun in more than 10 years and because of my lack of interest I probably won't anytime again soon.
Qualification for a Concealed Carry License in just about every state isn't much of a challenge. As an example, the NRA Basics of Pistol Shooting, which would qualify you for a CHL in most states, requires you to put 5 rounds each into 4 circles at 10 feet. You get as many attempts as you need, provided you haven't rubbed your instructor the wrong way.
There are likely even more lenient classes. In Ohio, you simply need to spend 2 hours on the range as part of your chosen class - there is no state-required marksmanship standard.
The Citizens have already paid for these rifles once ! Why would any thinking person want to pay for an old GI rifle two times????
Insane
Does CMP have a list of M-1s they have worked on? Serial number wise.
I gotta buy one of these. My grandpa would've been issued one
I already own a Garand but was wondering about the qualifications for the .45s. Is the range time waived for over 60 years of age on those as well? I didn't see anything about age on the website.
Thanks for your video.
Now how to find ammo for one. I've had mine from the CMP since October, and I haven't been able to find any ammo besides Turkish surplus, and I'm not taking a chance with that.
They told me 6-8 weeks. I got my rifle in 6 days last November. Absolutely wild.
I think one of mine came in about 8 days and one in 2 weeks. Still not terrible.
Got a CMP Special over 10 years ago and now I'm waiting on a Field Grade. They are waaaay far behind tho...
So being and e-5 and above i cover all three of the requirements? All i have to do is fill out the 3 forms and notorize form 2a?
In the video it mentions a hunting licenses as proof of marksmanship but i don't see that listed as an option on the CMP website. Did this change and wasn't updated on the site? It would be a PA hunting license.
Does C&R licensing count as proof of marksmanship? I know you guys mention something about it on the site but the live firing part kinda confused me a bit.
Can I use my guard card and my expose gun permit I am issued from the state of CA instead of proving markmanship competition certication or hunting license?
Can anyone speak to the relative price of these arms/ammo, as compared to market prices?
Would being listed on the NICS database mean you're disqualified?
Bought mine through the CMP while I was stationed overseas back in 2006.
She's a postwar production that was loaned to the Greek Army and the only rifle I will never part with.
Gonna be buried with it?
Great program. Wish we had such here in Australia.
Not trying to rub salt in a wound, but my second favorite rifle I own is a Lithgow L1A1 SLR.
She belongs in Oz where she was made, but alas she's here in the States now.
@Big Dummy - ahhhhhhhh... makes me angry. I served for 5 years in the early 2000's so I trained on the AUG (F88). Never got the chance to fire the SLR as it was well and truly out of service and now only used for ceremonial duties. On the upside, Lithgow still make firearms - looking at buying an LA102 shortly. Perhaps an old Lithgow .303 is on the cards too. Anyway, hope the Ol' Elephant Gun is serving you well. Cheers from Oz.
@@NaillLookingforaHammer I understand that Australia is a great country and all that but if you really want to own a gun you could try and move to the United States. However I know that is a big move because all your family is in Australia and all of your friends as well so I could also recommend trying to petition the government to allow firearms again because I know plenty of Australians who support firearms rights both in the US and back home. On a side note I find it funny how many Australians are in Massachusetts as well as how many support gun rights seeing as Massachusetts is one of the strictest states when it comes to firearms. So to cut it short I wish you the best of luck in trying to get your firearm rights back and if it doesn't work America always has room for more people. Cheers mate best of luck.
You guys deserve it!!! I hear Australia was fairly reasonable pre 1996???
Sadly you get the government you deserve
Do you need to have the order form filled out even if you are buying in store?
I would love to have a M1 garand, a M14 and a M1 carbine!
The three musketeers. haha
@@CivilianMarksmanshipProgram my uncles trained and used the grand in WWII and Korea, a buddy of mine found a carbine in a rice patty in Vietnam, broke it down and shipped it home price by price, a sweet little weapon and I trained and used a super math grade M14 when attached to the advanced marksmanship unit at then Ft. Hood in the early 70s a real sweet weapon!!
Good night
Excuse me, do you have international shipping?
How the hell do you become a member in cmo affiliated organization?
Why not just buy M1 through my local dealer rather than doing all the extra paperwork? Sounds more of a hassle than getting an SBR
Is there a website to go to to see prices?
I thought the rifles were supposed to be free?! Does anyone know the cost?
Okay I can do all this. *Checks prices* Yeah I'll have to stick to airsoft replica collecting for now
It says sold out Did you guys ship them all to Ukraine already
Why not just buy from local FFL? Lots of seniors now selling off their estate collections.
I love the M1 Garand, I was gifted my first when I graduated high school. That being said, do you know what you an the department of Veterans Affairs have in common? An ungodly amount of red tape.
Do you guys know when the 4th round of 1911s begins? I would like to know when so I can know when to get started on my paperwork. I love my M1 I bought from you guys.
Hey Mason! Glad to hear you are loving your M1 Garand. They are truly an amazing piece of history. The Round 3 cutoff has been extended and the order window is still open for 1911s. We have another video on our channel detailing the 1911 order process. You can also find more info here: thecmp.org/sales-and-service/1911-information/
Thank you!
@@CivilianMarksmanshipProgram Just sent my form in today and double checked everything. Can't wait to eventually get my 1911.
So if i do these three step i can purchase an m1?
Too much work to go through to buy a rifle. You want me to take a marksman course I'm trying to do buy a surplus rifle.
That’s just one way to prove marksmanship. Other ways are hunters, concealed license, and military/ police Identification. To name a few.
yeah but these take hours and cost a lot of money.. THIS IS NOT EASY!@@CivilianMarksmanshipProgram
I sent the paperwork over two weeks ago. I'm still waiting for a response. Starting to worry to be honest.
This is discriminatory. I need a garand, but have never needed a shooting record to purchase a antique rifle before.
Can a guy from nebraska send for one of these? Also i have a state id since i cant legally drive
I'm still a fairly lousy shot lol. Navy had us drill with them but not actually fire them. Probably have to wait until I'm 60 for that marksmanship requirement lol.
A conceal carry, active or retired military or police identification, or hunters license will cover marksmanship as well.
If I was not born in the U.S. and I am a foreigner, how can I obtain U.S. citizenship to meet this requirement?
So when are you guys gonna start selling surplus stock standard US Gov M14s or M16s since those are both old rifles and about to be replaced with the M5/M7. Do you know when you can sign up to receive the next line of service rifles that will become surplus? Cause it seems like you guys have been selling M1s for what, 60 years?, you need to get up to day with the newer service rifles that are gonna become surplus. Thanks!
Lemme know what u find out
Next video Idea "how to order a US military nuk-
Im glad I live in Alabama
I'll bet in your neck of the woods you can buy one over the counter minus all the bullshit
So I’m a big historian and have always wanted an M1…I live in Alabama but how strict is the proof of marksmanship? I have my grandfathers M1 Carbine and would love to add a Garand to the collection
They say a concealed carry permit will suffice. In Alabama all you need is something like $30, a pulse, and no history with the law. Your county sherriff's department will have instructions on their website.
That is why I love Kentucky, you fill out that ATF form, and 10 minutes later walk out of the gun store with all the guns you can afford. Zero crime here.
Bit annoying to have to join a club I have no interest in joining just to buy a rifle, but eh. Join, buy, let it lapse I guess. I just want to have one 'cause it's been on my bucket list to have one since I was 8-9 years old.
@@deaddad6310 nothin on the private market I can afford that is in good enough condition to shoot. Private sellers think these things are worth a fortune.
As a former U.S.Marine, I only wish I had the eyesight I had 35 years ago. As a 40% DAV (direct combat related with a LOT of experience at the VA), I know the USMC part fits the membership, and ID/DD214 covers the ID part...but where I once had 20/20 vision, now its 20/80...not good for 'open iron sights'. I remember 35 years ago, you could pick up an M1 in 'cosomoline condition' for a couple-hundred dollars (in .30-06 or .308)...and no one wanted them...due to weight (and due to a lot of new rifles coming out, you could get an M1A in .308 for under $500)! I DO regret not getting one of each back then.
You should be covered for all our requirements. Thank you for your service.
I've seen M1 rifles with red dot sights. Not sure what the users had to do to make that work, but I guess, where there is a will, there is a way.
I'm 72 and just got cataract surgery for both eyes. I can tell you that it's well worth it. From about 5 feet out I'm now 20/20 and a tad better. I have to use readers for anything closer. Having said that, I have new glasses on the way to correct that.
I just learned that my father used one of these when he was in the Army in the 60s. What can I expect to pay for one that in excellent condition?
That is awesome! We appreciate your father's service.

Saving up for an Expert grade. Every firearm enthusiast needs a Garand in the collection.
At least it's not many hoops to jump through 🤣
I want one but I got to go on deployment -_-
I'm very got $400 what kind of garand can I get?
As an honorably discharged vet, would a DD214 count as proof of marksmanship and/or anything else for these requirements?
Yes, there's a note at the top of the video when this is mentioned.
@@l4h4l11 Aah. Thats what I get for listening and not watching. Thanks!
How do I find out about pricing? I couldn’t find anything about it online.
You can find info on pricing and availability here.
thecmp.org/sales-and-service/m1-garand/
Not a bit inconvenient. ... D'oh! ... A notary stamp?
Are the 3 requirements for your company, or for every company out there? I meet 2 of the 3, but am not affiliated with the GCA.
These requirements are specific to the Civilian Marksmanship Program. You can sign up for with the GCA or M1CC, instore or online. There are other ways to qualify for club as well such as a law enforcement or military ID. If you have any questions let us know. You can find more information on our website as well. thecmp.org/cmp_sales/rifle-sales/
Would a foid card count as a proof of marksmanship?
I have a swiss k11 but the ammo is too much to shoot consistently, would love to switch to a American classic.
Yes it does! I hope you enjoy it!
If you're info reloading, 7.5 swiss is super easy. Standard .308 bullets, just need some ppu brass and components. Mine loved IMR 4064.
It would be nice to come to one of your stores... if they weren't 2000 miles from my house. ... I am a veteran and a certified instructor, and still can't get one in the mail. Cannot find a notary public and I live where you cannot have firearms sent to your home. Bummer!
the irony is these rifles are paid for several times over in tax payer dollars and blood. One veteran to another, you'd have better luck getting a quality M1 in a timely manner off gunbroker.
How much ?
can proof of marksmanship be an active C&R license (03 FFL)? on the website it says "Firearms Owner Identification Cards that included live fire training" next to C&R license and my C&R license did not include live fire training.
As long as you do not live in WA, we are able to accept an active C&R for marksmanship! Thanks! 07-21-2023
I don't understand what the marksmanship has to do with purchasing the rifle.
Note to self: reach E-5 asap.
Im stationed in Mississippi. Would i be able to drive to Alabama and purchase one even though my state of residence is different?
Absolutely! We have two stores in Alabama one at our Range in Talladega and the other in Anniston. Just make sure you have proof of citizenship and marksmanship. You can sign up for club in store. If you’re in the military that counts for marksmanship and club. And depending on your rank it can even cover citizenship.
😮. I want one but only got 1k $😢
Maybe they should make it a little harder to get one, and maybe tell you the price...Oh wait its the Government,....I get it.
