  • Military Surplus collectible news update for Nov 7, 2023. We discuss the Civilian Marksmanship Program's M1917 price update as well thier reintroduction of their M1 Garand Advanced Maintenance Class. The CMP, which is a non-profit organization, is known for their affordable M1 Garand rifles. Within the recent years, there have been offering M1903’s and M1917's in their stores. They recently updated the annual amount of bolt action rifles you can purchase from them. Also, as of the making of this video, I found out They’ve updated it to one Bolt action rifle per year!

    The advanced Maintenance class is well worth it. I attended this course years ago. You are taught amoror level skills and techniques. When you finish the course, you go home with a special grade Gurand that you built from the ground up from a stripped receiver.

      Thanks for sharing your experience! I was thinking of doing this course with a buddy of mine

    The M1917 is an amazing gun. My parents got me a 1918 Winchester for Christmas last year. Sucker is a tack driver.

    • @BattlefieldCurator

      Winchester! Nice! 😁if I knew they were doing this with the bolt guns and M1917’s, I would’ve bought at least one more M1917 when I visited more frequently in years past.

    Glad I got my CMP M1917 when they were about $400. 🤠

    As of the making of this video, I also found out that the CMP changed their annual limit of bolt action rifles. Each customer is allowed to buy only ONE bolt action rifle per year. There have been M1903’s and M1917 bolt action rifles within the last few months at the CMP South Store. Check out the CMP South Forums for more information about inventory.

    I Like the merch. Appreciate the information. The M1917 is a great collector rifle and from the CMP it would be a reliable shooter. Thanks again.

    Advanced Maintenance Class is fantastic. I enjoyed the class that I took.

    I had a beautiful 1917 in the 1980s. It cost me 100 bones at a gun show in 1984. I got bored with it and sold a year or two after. I wish i had her back.

    • @tballstaedt7807
      @tballstaedt7807 4 месяца назад

      She had a bright bore, light patina on the stock, and no rust. The only reason it was 100 and not 150 is that it was missing a stamped sheet metal retaining ring that held on the rear upper hand guard. A month or two later, I was riding my bicycle through the neighborhood during trash pile pick up. I skidded to a halt because in a trash pile was a rusty P17 Enfield action with a barrel split like a banana. Clinging to it was the very part I needed. It was providence, I swear. 1903 springfields were the popular rifles at that time. P14 and P17 Enfields were no big deal and could be found regularly in pawn shop rifle racks for 1 to 200 dollars.

    I stopped by the south store saturday morning , they had 10 -1917s and 2 -1903s. One of the 03s cam home with me!

    You may want to double check the one bolt rifle limit per year since the CMP auction site still lists one model of each bolt typed per year (KRAG, M1917, M1903s) in the disclaimers, and in the past, those limits would also apply to in store purchases.

    • @BattlefieldCurator
      @BattlefieldCurator  8 месяцев назад +1

      I found it when I opened the CMP South Forums post about rifle prices. It states this “1 bolt gun per YEAR regardless of type (9/28/23).” I also saw it in another post but I can still call tomorrow just to double verify

    That class thing sounds neat. Too bad we missed it.

    • @BattlefieldCurator
      @BattlefieldCurator  5 месяцев назад

      They’ll have more throughout the year I’m sure

    got a SG WInchester M1917 at NS a few months ago $834 including tax

    • @BattlefieldCurator
      @BattlefieldCurator  8 месяцев назад

      Dang… I am not sure what prompted the change in price with these. Maybe getting more scarce?

  • @dancortes3062
    @dancortes3062 8 месяцев назад +2

    I live in Ohio and frequent the North store. They just started selling 1903a3s. I will be keeping my ear to the grindstone on the North store forums for 1917s. I'm guessing that it will be a similar situation with the 1903s where we will have to wait several months and then in spring or summer, the North store will have some 1917s, that is if there is still some more to go around.

    • @BattlefieldCurator
      @BattlefieldCurator  8 месяцев назад

      Yea I’m sure there’s a lot of folks up north going for the M1917’s. We just never know how the CMP decides to disperse the various rifles out to the stores

  • @The_SmorgMan
    @The_SmorgMan 7 месяцев назад +1

    1k and 1100? Ouch. I picked up 2 1917’s this past year one for 750, another for 850. Good shape too

    • @BattlefieldCurator
      @BattlefieldCurator  7 месяцев назад

      Yes I know it’s sad they raised the price on them

    • @The_SmorgMan
      @The_SmorgMan 7 месяцев назад

      ⁠@@BattlefieldCuratoroh I should have added those were private transactions. 1 gun show, one gunbroker.

    ...membership in the GCA..would br worth twice the 25 dollar annual fee..thsnx for the tip on 30 Csrbine ammo...just oaid 50 bux a box for French 30 cal ammo..prolly corrosive akso..

    • @BattlefieldCurator
      @BattlefieldCurator  8 месяцев назад

      Yea the French ammo could corrosive. Might have to Google search the stamp to find out. Almost all surplus 30 carbine is not corrosive, which is definitely one less thing to worry about when cleaning after a range day 😁

  • @bobbog7083
    @bobbog7083 6 месяцев назад

    Any idea where this batch of 1917s is from? Figure it’s probably from the Philippines returns but I have no idea. Might have a better idea when I bring one home.

    • @BattlefieldCurator
      @BattlefieldCurator  6 месяцев назад +1

      The 1917s, as far as I know, are from VFW and American Legion posts across the U.S. I got a Garand from them one time that had the Post number stamped on the stock

    Can anyone help get one M1 carbine

  • @sixgunsymphony7408
    @sixgunsymphony7408 8 месяцев назад

    The high price means that they wont be "sporterized" by Bubba.

    • @BattlefieldCurator
      @BattlefieldCurator  8 месяцев назад

      That is true, but I think because bubba is less likely to sporterize, he will now try to flip it

  • @katana258

    sorry just to much $$ ..nice old guns but for that $$ there is to many good new 1 moa bolt rifles for that price ..

    • @BattlefieldCurator
      @BattlefieldCurator  3 месяца назад

      These are not sought after because of their practical use… they are mainly bought up by collectors and history enthusiasts. There are also some that buy these for vintage competition matches or occasional hunting.
