Handguns / Re: CMP WILL get surplus 1911s
« on: November 28, 2015, 03:36:47 PM »
Cmp deleted thread :-(

The CMP has One thread (http://forums.thecmp.org/showthread.php?t=178899, sticky... in Ask CMP.

GR


Yes, this is the Thread to rule them all. A moderator posted early on that this would be the 1911 Speculation thread they will keep going. Several others have been deleted. Every kind of speculation imaginable flying here.

Here's an idea to deal with the masses of Citizens wishing to acquire a CMP 1911. What about a lottery to get on a Waiting List. Open up a sign up to be in the lottery for 2 - 3 months then hold a lottery of those names to create a waiting list that won't take more than 2 years to fulfill. Do it again in the last couple of months of the first waiting list.

Here's some info and lots of conjecture.


Price is one thing but what I'm wondering about is is condition.

If CMP follows their practice with Garands the same for the 1911s, they restore the guns to safe operating condition, refurbishing or replacing parts, test firing and adjusting, grading and selling them. The grades are on the CMP site, Rack, Field, Service and Correct grades. Those in the finest condition they will put up for auction. No matter what the condition they are safe to fire. I'd bet they replace the truly shot out barrels with new ones?

they will C+R I think so makes Cali sales easier?

glad i kept the ffl/coe going

I don't have experience with this and you need someone who knows more than me, but my understanding is it will be an ordinary FFL to FFL interstate transfer except it's not on the Roster so you have to have a C&R license. If you have both C&R and COE then you can get more than one handgun (C&R) in 30 days and no 10 day wait.

Can someone tell me if this is correct?


Will the cmp deal with ca?

I've bought Garands and a M1 Carbine from them in the past, living in Sacramento. Before 2014 they could ship rifles to your door, UPS signature required. Now they'll go to your favorite FFL.


Any idea on price?

I'll take a wild guess. What do you think of $600 to $2000 depending of condition? What's your guess?

I suspect it will be very hard to get one. There's very few available and very high demand. How about a waiting list for a couple of years maybe?


The CMP rumor is that the Army has between a hundred thousand and several hundred thousand put up in a warehouse (conveniently just around the corner from the Anniston CMP). The law that was just passed calls for a pilot program to sell 10,000 in the first year, then report to Congress. They want to count how many people are murdered by CMP 1911s. As if.

I think it will take a year just to take delivery of the first batch of 1911s, gather a good store of replacement parts, hire and train gunsmiths, and get the process rolling. Who knows for sure though.

Find the CMP Forums, they will eventually be posting official information, then all your questions will be answered authoritatively instead of just my guesses.

In my darkest nightmares I fear that the CA Legislature will hear about this and pass some dandy CA law to stomp it out for us Californians before we can bring one home. Is there any way we can keep it a secret from the general public?

My best guess is that it will take at least a year for CMP to get their program together and start shipping these National Heirlooms. Maybe more. I'm sure there will be a waiting list. Maybe a years long waiting list.

Go to the CMP, find the Forums, see what they're posting.

Kansas Students File Discrimination Complaints Against Professor Who Used N-Word in Class

Quote
A white University of Kansas (KU) communications professor is on leave, after students filed discrimination complaints against her because she used the n-word in class to describe an incident that reportedly occurred on the University of Missouri campus.


Leading a discussion of racial tensions in Universities with Graduate students. Commenting on how many white folk are oblivious to racial discrimination said. "It's not like I see N*gg*r spray painted on the walls." No complaints during class but huge blowup afterwards, formal complaints, Prof put on leave, social media eruptions, threats, petitions, etc. etc.

I dropped a couple of bucks on her Go Fund Me to raise funds for a decent, specialized attorney to fight for Free Speech and Academic Freedom. Maybe you think it's a worth while cause also.

Hey guys! Is this the way to 4chan? How do I get there from here? I got these cat videos I need to post.

So this is like when you walk into your sixth grads class and there's some timid looking substitute teacher sitting at the teacher's desk. And there's just a huge wall of kid noise and paper airplanes and sitting on desks with backs to the substitute who is pretending nothing much is happening. And one of the kids is talking to the sub saying "Mr. Jones always has us go out on the grass and have class under the tree."

Newby once more! All my sins are washed away in the blood of the lamb! The weight of eternal punishment lifted from my shoulders! Hallelujah!!
