New US Produced M1 Garands

[sqlbullet]

The CMP has announced a partnership with Heritage Arms USA to sell M1 Garand rifles using new production forged receivers made in the USA. This is nearly 90 years since the rifle was adopted and nearly 70 years since the last ones were produced. The rifles will feature new production receivers, barrels and stocks and will contain a mix of NOS USGI and new commercial small parts.

The rifles will initially be chambered in 30-06 and 308 but other historically significant variants are in the works.

The delivery will follow the CMP 1911 pattern and the guns will have to ship to an FFL, not direct to seller like surplus USGI Garands.  They will be using a new digital order process different from both USGI Garand and CMP 1911 sales processes.

Price will be $1900.00 + $40 S&H as well as any FFL fees on the buyers end.  For comparison MSRP of a Springfield M1A is $1785.00

This is exciting news for M1 Garand enthusiasts and ensures that these classic firearms - "The greatest battle implement ever devised" - will exist for decades to come.

That's cool, but man that's also expensive too.

Well that's cool but the M1 is quite a heavy rifle, they are great rifles but are expensive as such.
The veterans organizations (VFW) might seek them for salute purposes.
