CMP 1911 purchase requirements!
To all CMP constituents:
The CMP Board of Directors has discussed at length how the sales of 1911s would be handled, if the CMP were to ever receive them from the United States Army.
Some preliminary decisions:
Decisions concerning the grade and pricing of the 1911s will not be made until inspection has occurred of a substantial quantity which will take an estimated 150 days post receipt.
All laws pertaining to the sale of 1911s by CMP will be strictly obeyed.
Potential purchasers will have to provide to CMP a new set of documents exhibiting:
1) proof of U.S. Citizenship,
2) proof of membership in a CMP affiliated club,
3) proof of participation in a marksmanship activity,
4) a new form 2A with notary,
5) successful completion of a NICS background check,
6) a signed copy of the 01 Federal Firearms License in which the 1911 will be transferred to.
The CMP customer will be required to complete a form 4473 in person and successfully complete another NICS check by the recipient FFL holder before the pistol can be transferred.
Qualified CMP customer will only be allowed to purchase one 1911 per calendar year.
No 1911s available in the CMP stores, or on line, only mail order sales.
CMP will set the date in which it will accept orders for the 1911s. The date will be posted to the world.
Orders will only be accepted via mail order delivery.
Orders will only be accepted post marked on the date or after, no early orders.
Once CMP receives 10,000 orders, customer names will be loaded into the Random Number Generator.
The Random Number Generator will provide a list of names in sequence order through a random picking process to CMP.
Customers will be contacted in the sequence provided by the Random Number Generator.
When the customer is contacted a list of 1911 grades and pricing options that are available will be offered for selection of one.
As CMP proceeds down the sequenced list less grade and pricing options will be available. Again, this done completely random.

Sounds fair and clear to me.
''The FFL01 requirements related to CMP sales of 1911/1911A1s to the public were not devised by the CMP. Language in the Defense Authorization bill requires it. The same language will also require the CMP to become an FFL01, which they never were before and never wanted to be. Like it not those are the rules. ''
Let the stupid questions begin.Last edited by abner13; December 4th, 2017 at 11:26 PM.

Ok, I’m stupid, so are we to assume this will indeed be 15 year old pieces of shit and not the $300,000 1911’s some members are currently having wet dreams about?
Why do I ask this?
No C&R I see mentioned.
If a C&R isn’t accepted...
I’ll laugh my stupid ass off if there isn’t a single wet dream inducing 1911 in the lot.

Any wet-dream inducing pistols will go on the CMP auction with the $5000 new-in-wrap Garands and $4000 new-in-wrap carbines.

Re: CMP 1911 purchase requirements!
Think again! The last order for M1911 series (except for very few used by Special Ops) was 1945. Then there was the Army's general recall on them during the 1950s during which time they were disassembled, parts inspected and reassembled without regard to keeping original pieces intact. I doubt you'll even find any of the National Match pistols built by AMTU and Rock Island armorers.

Wish I could know what condition things I've never seen are in. You guys are better than Nostradamus. Maybe I should save my money and buy another Mosin like the cool kids.

Re: CMP 1911 purchase requirements!
I’m still wondering how these pistols currently in the market made it out of military service legally.
When were the last batch of 1911’s sold off to the public?
Or are today’s collectors buying up stolen guns that found their way home in duffle bags?

Like their idea to limit sales to one, guess they learned a little from M-1 sales.

Disappointed that I can't travel to the North Store and hand pick one.
