Re: CMP and Tisas
You're not missing anything. It's about the almighty buck.
I'll do without before I spend any of my dollars on Turkish crap...

I know. I was getting ready to order one w/o thinking then sent to a friend and he was furious and it opened my eyes! Sure, it would cost a couple hundred more for a Springfield but that would truly be a nice piece of history replica!

Re: CMP and Tisas
I mean the Turks have been producing some nice firearms and Tisas seems to have a good rep as a quality firearm at a great price - but for CMP to partner with them? Doesn't seem very smart and kind of a slap in the face for who/what they are.....

Re: CMP and Tisas
I don't like this at all and I was buying the real CMP offerings in the 90's but their supply of decent Garands, target 22's and 03's dried up years ago. I know the CMP is set up as a trust to further marksmanship sports but now being the middlemen and introducing a "commemorative" 1911 is going to far. You can buy a Tiska 1911 without the CMP logo for a lot less than $480.

Does that look like Bruce Willis, or is it just me?

Re: CMP and Tisas
The part about the CMP being a government agency - it's not:
Title XVI of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1996 (Public Law 104-106, 10 February 1996) created the Corporation for the Promotion of Rifle Practice & Firearms Safety (CPRPFS, commonly called the"CMP") to replace the NBPRP. The CPRPFS is a tax-exempt non-profit 501(c)(3) corporation chartered by the U.S. Congress, but is not an agency of the U.S. government (Title 36, United States Code, Section 40701 et seq.). Apart from a donation of surplus .22 and .30 caliber rifles in the Army's inventory to the CMP, the CMP receives no federal funding.

Re: CMP and Tisas
im going to say the price point of someone like springfield or colt would be to high to move decent volume.
