- Finally got selected for a Cmp1911! I mention the details in the video, anything I forgot please feel welcome to leave it in the comments below. Any questions feel free to ask them below. Sorry if I sound nasally and unhappy lol, I was really tired and I had just gotten home from working overnight and picked up my gun on the way home so I was dead tired. I’m ecstatic that I got one better than I thought I would and it will stay in my collection forever. All the delays from being a high number picked and having to wait because of the COVID-19 pandemic was worth it. Thanks.
Edit: I bought a book about markings on usgi colt 1911s and 1911a1’s and with the help of others figured out what era most of my parts were made. My slide is a 1918 slide. Very interesting my gun is a mix of WWI,WWII, and post war parts. Covers all eras.

I was #2927 and I got my service grade a couple of years ago. 1944 Colt frame and a mid 50’s commercial Colt slide. Not bothered at all with the barrel or slide. These were all overhauled. The grunt in Vietnam did not have an all parts correct 1911, either. I’m very happy with it. Well worth the money to me. It goes well with my 1944 Garand from the CMP.
Bloke chill
Great video & well worth the patient wait!
Neat!! Thanks for sharing
About 1917-18 slide
Definitely a nice looking pistol. Has some scuff marks, but that adds to it in my opinion. Shows that it's been around the block.
Yeah not bad for being 75 years old. Just glad there’s no pitting. I was lucky there were service grades still available. They go by crate and it’s just whatever is available when your number comes up. Luck of the draw. So someone might get stuck with a field grade or a rack grade in less than desirable condition and less desirable parts.
@@soylentgreen7074 'click' Noice!
So i just got the notification for the second lottery which i plan on trying. When your order is up do they call you with which grades are available?
@@wolf14900 yes, exactly
@@wolf14900 and I’ll spread the word.
Colt Colt ... matching finish on that one !!!
I later found out the slide is 1918 manufactured. But definitely was rearsenaled together because of the matching finish.
Nice
11/17/2022 CMP 1911A1 Sales Round 3. RGN 34042. I received my Service Grade M1911A1. It is a 1943 Remington Rand frame with a Colt manufactured Hard Slide (7790314) and matching chrome lined barrel (.45 AUTO - 7791193 - '85) This combination I found out was a much sought after for competition shooters. All roll marks and initials are legible. The Army ordnance crossed cannons have a "MR" over strike but a portion is still visible. The "MR" I have been told is from Mount Rainier Arsenal (another unique feature). All in all a VERY nice piece of military history. I am grateful to the CMP for making these available. Me? MSgt USAF ret ('73-'95) A former Security Policeman and armorer. I crossed trained out of SPs into Operations Management/Sqdrn Ops and served as First Sergeant .
I got mine yesterday. It has a Colt frame of 1945 vintage however everything else is NOT Colt; the slide is possibly a 1980s manufacture replacement, it has a 1950s commercial barrel and just about everything else is not original but either a contract replacement or commercial part. I'm not good with what I have. The description is that these CMP 1911 may have commercial parts but they didn't say that many of them would have been completely rebuilt and that the only thing left original would be the frame. I have a parts bin 1911A1.
You got lucky that at least you have a frame/slide that match. The slide on my gun has a huge 7790314 stamped on the side and a barrel that is early commercial 1950s.
My frame and slide are both colt but do not match. The frame is 1945 and the slide is 1918 WWI era with a mix of other parts. No matter what our guns have in them they were or may have been issued this way and we have paperwork saying they came straight from the US Army which makes them more collectable and interesting to me. I rather have one like this than a factory original in the box that was never touched. Sure they’re less valuable but each one had a part in history and untold story you can just imagine about. If only they could talk.
@@soylentgreen7074 I would still rather have matching frame and slide. If I cannot find a matching slide I'll sell it and keep looking.
Beautiful specimen I'm going to put in for one through cmp
Definitely worth it man. Go check their website for information. It’s open for submissions again January 4th to March 4th.
Beauty! Thanks for the video. It gives me some hope. My #'s 160xx. Hope to get my call soon & hope mine's as nice as yours. Congratulations!
You get your call yet? Hopefully you get a good one. I’ve been seeing lots of good ones coming out lately in the forums and in other groups.
Ww1 slide,good catch

You have a WW1 era 1911 slide. That’s not an A1 slide. You’re lucky!
I just FedEx’d my packet today to the CMP! Here’s hoping I can get a nice WWII 1911. Thanks.
Did you get one?! Details please! What is your RGN? I just submitted my app for Round 3.
@@jonathancollier-porter727 I did not get one. The CMP called and offered me a field grade, but so wanted a service grade. I’ll be getting a vintage 1911 on my own - one that I can choose with detailed pics. I love the CMP and will continue to support them!
@@jonathanl2748 I’m sorry that you didn’t get your desired service grade. I admire your resolve not to settle but rather to pursue what you want, and I trust that you’ll get it, friend.
Seriously, it took two years after you sent in your packet to get the gun?
Yes, others it took even longer. And they have another lottery open now from January 4th to March 4th to get your paperwork in. After that people get randomly selected in a random order. I happened to be 15,120 in line out of about 19,000 people.
@@soylentgreen7074 I am very familiar with CMP, I have ordered two Garands from them and I am very happy. I sent in my packet for the 1911 today and foolishly thought it would take around two months to find out something. Thank you for giving all of us a heads up!
@@n721sw no problem. No one will probably get a gun until at least the end of summer im guessing. Just keep fingers crossed you end up with a low number.
My #is 20985 for the 2nd round.
Good luck.
That’s a high number. I’m 27,000 something.
