M1 Carbines at CMP

[LCPfraTN]

The CMP began accepting mail orders for M1 carbines today. They have not been available for mail order in many years. This batch probably won't last long, so get them while you can. They also said that they will have a small number available in the South and North stores beginning this Thursday, but I'll be surprised if they last through the weekend. The prices ($685 for service grade and $625 for field grade) are also much lower than the prices have been at the South store when a few have occasionally appeared in the racks.

Everyone should own at least one M1 Carbine.

I would guess that if you haven't already mailed your order in, you won't get one. They are limiting to one per customer. Seems like when I ordered mine several years ago they were $495 plus shipping.

They are fun to shoot.

Everyone does need one. Fun and nice handling little guns.

I sent my order in Friday so I hope I made the cut.

And they are all marked "sold out" on the CMP website. They received my order this morning...hopefully I made the lottery cut! [emoji3]

Learned something new....I lived less than 2 miles from cmp and had know idea what it was....

[A.J. Holst]

Any idea how many were sold during this release?

[Pete123]

I fear there weren't many.  By the time I got to the CMP website on Feb 1st they already showed them as being out of stock.

 

I sent in an order, but don't have great hope for getting one.

Something like 1000-1300.  There were over 5000 orders.

Hmmm...I guess that will leave me out. Way late in getting in.

My understanding from statements made by the CMP is that they received more than 5,000 orders the first day and only had around 1,000 in inventory for shipment but were also expecting to receive another 1,000 or so from the Army in a few weeks. If your order wasn't received the first day, you likely have no chance of receiving one, and if it was received on 2/1/16, then you probably have around a 40% chance of getting one. It will likely take a month or more before they finish processing these orders, so I'm still hoping that I get lucky and win the carbine lottery.

I have made a goal that this year will be the year I get either a m1 carbine or garand!
