I resisted as long as I could...and bought an M1 Garand at the CMP North Store about 5 years ago.
Now I compete with it, and I see the attraction. My receiver on my rifle was made in September 1941.
If only it could talk,,,
Thank you, CMP!
Glad you're enjoying your rifle and competing! We are looking forward to seeing you on range soon!
I have a mosin that was made in 1916 it only cost 60 bucks
It can talk, but it only knows the words "Bang!" and "Ping!"
@@ericsmith5919 Hahaha, still a more expansive vocabulary than most guns who only know one of these!
That’s neat. Owning a piece of history…whether you’d shoot it or not. If only it could talk.
Jesus Christ, you want more paperwork than the feds do for a modern rifle, to buy a surplus rifle?
What a joke.
I was first introduced when this show was under the DCM. My wife's uncle, an Iwo Jima Marine, purchased match grade .45's, M-14's and M-1's. Since then, the 1960's -1980's, the prices have shot through the roof under CMP. Still a great program but kind of expensive for guns the tax payers have already paid for.
CMP isn't a government agency. It doesn't get the rifles for free.
@@THall-vi8cpIt's government affiliated selling guns that have already been paid for by the taxpayers to the taxpayers. Make that make sense please
@@Turd_Ferguson538 and, government affiliated or not aside, the extra requirements are a big turn off, and frankly I question the entire purpose behind them. If you can pass a NICS check, then you've met the requirements to buy one. Period. The range time and other stuff is just arbitrary for the sake of being arbitrary.
Who sets the Price??
Bureaucrats, who pocket the money via Salaries,….for rich collectors.
It's one of the few ways the government generates revenue. They were bought, but not by us. They were bought that long ago.
The problem i have with the CMP is all the hops you jave to jump through. I can see paying some sort of membership dues. But requiring marksmanship training or equivalent is absurd. Theyre basically acting as gatekeepers to military surplus that the CIVILIANS should be able to access.
I say they should be abolished.
they make it sound soooo simple when in fact your jumping thru hoops rules regulations club memberships marksmanship courses or experience verification citizenship etc for an old surplus CRAZY.
... and yet they say you shouldn't have a valid identification to vote....hmm. yeah that makes sense.
Hmmm....kinda sus that being old asf somehow meams you DON'T have to prove marksmanship. Makes you wonder who makes these rules...
The moment when you realize that it's just easier to go to your local gun store 😂😂😂
The amount of hoops you have to go through to get a world War II gun is ridiculous. I don't want a boomer stick that bad
Easier to buy an m1 carbine or by an m1a than it is a Garand
@@riclate2013 Outside of collecting there's no real reason to want to own a Garand lol
Fudds are bad, but Anti-Fudds who act like the only guns worth buying are brand new modern guns are also insufferable. Old guns are cool. Not everything has to serve some grand purpose.
@@Turd_Ferguson538 Local gun stores mark up the costs of M1 pretty high.
The Citizens have already paid for these rifles once ! Why would any thinking person want to pay for an old GI rifle two times????
Too much work to go through to buy a rifle. You want me to take a marksman course I'm trying to do buy a surplus rifle.
That’s just one way to prove marksmanship. Other ways are hunters, concealed license, and military/ police Identification. To name a few.
yeah but these take hours and cost a lot of money.. THIS IS NOT EASY!@@CivilianMarksmanshipProgram
Too much nonsense to buy a rifle when I can buy an M1 a lot easier.
How would one go aboit buying an M1 a lot easier?
@@tommyaquaonline and local FFL.
This is discriminatory. I need a garand, but have never needed a shooting record to purchase a antique rifle before.
I feell like that this is just way to many steps buy a surplus rifle
Or just.. Ya know. Find and buy one. And not jump through 12 additional hoops. It's not impossible to find surplus rifles anymore, online sales are a thing now.
Problem is the outrageous prices a lot of sellers ask. The CMP ones are still expensive but it's not as bad as what most guys ask for their M1. Stinks man, a lot of these older guys got M1s for 500 a rifle and own several then try and sell one or two off for three or four times that original price.
If you can find real M1 Garands for cheaper than this program offers, I'd be surprised. But if you do, let me know!
All I’m hearing with their requirements is “Fudd alert 🚨 “
@@mustardbiscuits9750I thought the same thing lol
I bought one for $525, two for $700ish. A couple of years later I sold two of them for $1400 a piece to people too lazy to fill out a little paper work. So, yeah. I’ll sell you one for $1900.
order a rifle.
pay too much.
Done.
Too many hoops to jump through when I can just go to my local gun shop and be out in 30 minutes.
For 3-4 times the price they are there for just a little paperwork. And they send them right to your door.
So it's more expensive through this method???? 😐@@planedr
@@planedrMaybe right to your door, but not to mine. Not legal where I live. Not for a long time. I bought mine at a gun store for $275.00.
@@julianmercier They've gone up a lot since then
@@julianmercier Maybe 40 years ago what the hell? You can't even get a drill rifle for that much. Garands are bare minimum $1200.00 in today's market
Maybe they should make it a little harder to get one, and maybe tell you the price...Oh wait its the Government,....I get it.
If only my country had this program. I would sign up for these in a heartbeat! The M1 is such a beaut
These are probably some of the dumbest requirements I've ever heard of, just to buy a surplus M1. I shouldn't need to join a gun club or provide my VA ID just to buy a rifle, regardless of how old it is-- no, in fact, ESPECIALLY because of how old it is, and just how goddamn many M1 Garands there are. The amount of fully functioning M1s in circulation today is anywhere from 1 to 4 MILLION; and yet, the last two times I tried to get a rifle through this bogus program, I was told there flat out were none.
I was able to find a legit M1 on GunBroker that, per the fully matching serial numbers, was made in 1942 and saw service in the European theater; in good condition, for $1200.
EDIT: The biggest scam out of all of this? This is a US Government run program; the M1 Garands in their entirety were ALREADY PAID FOR with taxpayer dollars, and blood. As a veteran, with a family of veterans, this is incredibly insulting.
I agree. It seems like an awful lot of bullshit to go thru to purchase any firearm. Gotta belong to a gun club? For real? And just how much is that going to cost. I'm an American citizen, I served 8 years in the Army putting up with weapons grade bullshit, I'm not a convicted felon, here's my money now give me my effin rifle!
I’m capable of being “accepted” in their little boys club just by LEO experience but I refuse to be made to jump through hoops over in anything in America. I do understand the fact they should verify who they are selling firearms to but as you stated to require gun club membership is just too much for the average taxpayer at any time. The other point about cost of actual firearm is valid too. I refuse to join something that makes it so hard on honest hardworking average Americans just because I can squeeze by.
@@GenXMafiaI'm with ya on that battle
Love you guys and your work in keeping such beautiful rifles relevant, will you ever be opening new stores and ranges?
This just strikes me as "gatekeeping". Sorry, I shouldn't have to jump through these hoops for a rifle that's already more expensive than it ought to be.
My thoughts exactly when he started mentioning needing specific things and the funny thing to he never mentioned a background check.
Where are you going to find a garand cheaper?
Why dose owning a piece of American history require so many steps? Not like half these rifles are going to be used in combat. What happened to freedom?
Why does buying any firearm require so much nonsense ?
Have you ever heard of a DDS13 in triplicate you can adopt a kid easier than dealing with the federal government !!
Amazing it can happen at all, JFK was assassinated by a mail order rifle.
*Does
@@ironnads7975Okay spelling bee😂😂😂😂
Love my CMP M1, got it about 10 years ago, wish I had gotten a couple more back then for my boys
Wow! Too much bullshit to by a rifle! Have to show proof of marksmanship?! For what?! Have to join club(with fees of course)have to show all this documentation ,not buying class 3!
It's called the Civilian Marksmanship Program for a reason. It's mandate from the time Congress chartered it 120 years ago was train people - mostly fighting age men at the time, in marksmanship so they would not suck so much if they got drafted.
It was never intended to function primarily as a gun dealer for the general public. It's sort of an ancillary thing designed to benefit its members.
@kenofken9458 not anymore,now it's just another bullshit run a round gauge price jump thru hoops program.i buy class 3 with less bs.but hey if you feel that makes it important,you do you .
I'm not in CMP. I've thought about it. If you're in the program already, it's not a lot of hoops. If you're not, it's probably not worth it just to get a Garand. It used to be a way for people to get an almost dirt cheap but serviceable rifle, but Garands and guns in general are not longer cheap. I've resigned myself to the fact that I'm going to spend a couple thousand if I want a nice Garand.
CMP is what it is. I can't blame them for the policies they have. There are tons of other options to buy.
There shouldn't be ANY criteria like belonging to an "affiliated organization" to purchase a piece of American history. Its absolutely ludicrous you put restrictions on owning a WW2 M1 carbine. No thank you. And based on what you want to sell them for, Id be better off with a SOCOM M1. Talk about a RACKET! You should be ashamed with yourselves!
Why not just buy M1 through my local dealer rather than doing all the extra paperwork? Sounds more of a hassle than getting an SBR
Membership? No thanks. Sounds like another name for a gun registry to me.
I want one, but I don't want to go through all that to buy one😢
Thats honestly too many steps just to buy a old rifle
23 hoops to jump through for the possibility of getting a rifle with a 90 year old design 😂
You still don’t tell us how much they cost
Well that title is very misleading, why would someone want to jump through these extra hoops just to buy an M1 garand
I thought the rifles were supposed to be free?! Does anyone know the cost?
Fudd sales practices, sorry there’s plenty of other places that just ask for the legal requirements
...for double the price.
I stopped into Aniston on July 22nd with my father-in-law and brother-in-law, and I want to thank the people at the store for giving us a memorable experience. I picked up my 2nd Garand (first one I actually purchased) and everyone went above and beyond being helpful and friendly. The process could not have been any better, and I just want you to know we truly appreciate what y'all do. Thank you.
🙌 That’s amazing! We are truly blessed to have the greatest staff. It’s awesome to hear that your experience was perfect!
Thank you so much!
Southern hospitality!
Now if only we could pry a lot of them out of the hands of those dang Fudds putting them up on Gun Broker for $2-3k. "I know what I got"
Great program. Wish we had such here in Australia.
Not trying to rub salt in a wound, but my second favorite rifle I own is a Lithgow L1A1 SLR.
She belongs in Oz where she was made, but alas she's here in the States now.
@Big Dummy - ahhhhhhhh... makes me angry. I served for 5 years in the early 2000's so I trained on the AUG (F88). Never got the chance to fire the SLR as it was well and truly out of service and now only used for ceremonial duties. On the upside, Lithgow still make firearms - looking at buying an LA102 shortly. Perhaps an old Lithgow .303 is on the cards too. Anyway, hope the Ol' Elephant Gun is serving you well. Cheers from Oz.
@@NaillLookingforaHammer I understand that Australia is a great country and all that but if you really want to own a gun you could try and move to the United States. However I know that is a big move because all your family is in Australia and all of your friends as well so I could also recommend trying to petition the government to allow firearms again because I know plenty of Australians who support firearms rights both in the US and back home. On a side note I find it funny how many Australians are in Massachusetts as well as how many support gun rights seeing as Massachusetts is one of the strictest states when it comes to firearms. So to cut it short I wish you the best of luck in trying to get your firearm rights back and if it doesn't work America always has room for more people. Cheers mate best of luck.
You guys deserve it!!! I hear Australia was fairly reasonable pre 1996???
Sadly you get the government you deserve
As an honorably discharged vet, would a DD214 count as proof of marksmanship and/or anything else for these requirements?
Yes, there's a note at the top of the video when this is mentioned.
@@l4h4l11 Aah. Thats what I get for listening and not watching. Thanks!
Okay I can do all this. *Checks prices* Yeah I'll have to stick to airsoft replica collecting for now
Not a bit inconvenient. ... D'oh! ... A notary stamp?
YOU use to be able to order an M1 Garand for 75 dollars from the government, but Jimmy Carter put and end to that program.
I’ve bought more M1 rifles than I can count on one hand from y’all. Every one of them are unique and a piece of history. I’m glad I have each and every one of them in my collection❤
This is the most up to date and easy to understand process for a CMP purchase…mines expired before COVID… time to do it again 👏🤙🏽
We are glad this made it easier to understand! Hope you enjoy your next rifle ;)
@@CivilianMarksmanshipProgram The folks at the Anniston AL branch were very helpful, knowledgeable, and patience in making my decision; history of the rifle and grading was explained again where I could understand the method👍. And a big shout out to my friend Kate if she’s still works there ❤️🙏
CMP sells JUNK rifles, when they even have any in stock. The requirements to even get one are ridiculous. They won't even sell to a FFL03 Curios and Relics without background checks.
I bought my M1 Garand in 30-06 when I had a FFL03 in 2017 from Collectors Firearms and got a 10% Military Veteran discount and shipped right to my house. $1525 in un-issued condition.
It has the DoD Acceptance Cartouche and was only test fired, I had to zero it. It is considered the highest grade M1 you can get. 99% condition. I installed a new gas plug for modern ammo.
Normal handling marks and wood darkened from age.
Springfield Armory, made in December 1955 by the serial number, one of that last produced by the original Springfield Armory that shut down in 1968.
Thank you for this. Seen too many fools trying to sell them marked up at ridiculous prices.
Tell them you'll just wait for the estate sale.
They are not cheap through the CMP. They realized there is money to be made, they're not doing you a favor. Already bought and paid for through taxes and blood, shouldn't cost another arm and leg for surplus material.
@@allanfranklin9615It is much cheaper through CMP than anywhere else. Gone are the days where you could buy military surplus for $80, stop living in the past.
@allanfranklin9615 exactly what I was thinking
@@allanfranklin9615so it's better to buy it from a seller. Got it. Thanks👍 I'm doing my research as my first gun. And I want it to be a m1 garand😂 after that, maybe a Colt super 38🤔
I sent the paperwork over two weeks ago. I'm still waiting for a response. Starting to worry to be honest.
I love the M1 Garand, I was gifted my first when I graduated high school. That being said, do you know what you an the department of Veterans Affairs have in common? An ungodly amount of red tape.
I would love to have a M1 garand, a M14 and a M1 carbine!
The three musketeers. haha
@@CivilianMarksmanshipProgram my uncles trained and used the grand in WWII and Korea, a buddy of mine found a carbine in a rice patty in Vietnam, broke it down and shipped it home price by price, a sweet little weapon and I trained and used a super math grade M14 when attached to the advanced marksmanship unit at then Ft. Hood in the early 70s a real sweet weapon!!
FYI it against the law to photo copy a military ID.
Why not just buy from local FFL? Lots of seniors now selling off their estate collections.
Well, that rules out buying one of these.
Are the M1 garand's new rifles or used..
They are military surplus rifles. On average around 80 years old. They come with a certificate of authenticity as well.
How do I find out about pricing? I couldn’t find anything about it online.
You can find info on pricing and availability here.
thecmp.org/sales-and-service/m1-garand/
Too bad that most people buy these just to turn around and make a few hundred bucks on it.
I grew up with a Springfield Armory M1, both my father and uncle used one in Ww2 and Korea and were damned good with it. I learned to tear it down and reasseble at 10 years of age. We did it on the kitchen floor for entertainment. That was 60 years sgo and the old rifle still works like it did the day it was born.
If your over 60 your probably to old to drive but your definately good for eyes to be a marksman thats rediculous
Do you think that over 60 is too old to drive?
@@TheRetiredVeteran in many cases yes in many no thats why i said probably in fairness most people arent realy ever fit to drive all the ifiots on the road but the most infuriorating of all is the 15 moh under left lane 60+ corvette owner. Either way point veing how foes being 60+ dusmiss the markmanship qualification my uvle is 67 drives like a whole pyssy and has never touched a gun but he could just by pass what is probably the most important qualification because hes old enough while id have to compete or essentialy register my firearm ownership( unconstitutional) its rediculous
@@todydn That is a lot to unpack. I see you are disgruntled about it. I am sorry to hear that. I hope you have a better day.
I went though to Ling process to buy one of your A1 1911 and it's my most prized firearm that I will be it's care giver until I'm gone, then hopefully the next owner will also cherish it.
CMP , great organization saving history and teaching Americans how to defend our Country.
Thank you
Pretty hard to swallow that a rifle that was built with US taxpayer money is being sold for as much as what you are asking. Also, unless you get the custom rebuilds, you cannot even shoot the .3006 ammo through it?
Its a pretty good cost tbh for the gun today
The fact that my dd214 isn't enough to get one shipped to my door is a travesty
I seriously have to pay 300 dollars for a training course to buy a surplus gun?
No. You misunderstood the requirements.
I've always been intrigued by the Garand and have wanted one for a major amount of time and it's been a huge dream of mine. Unfortunately I'm still 10mo away for my 21st birthday but when that time comes, I'll get my concealed carry and look into this.
So..... you're going to concealed carry an M1??
Just how many God damned hoops does a 13 yr marine corps Sargeant Iraq veteran have to jump through just to buy one of these rifles? I ought to be given one for free!
How the hell do you become a member in cmo affiliated organization?
I got my M1 Garand today!!! Thank you so much CMP!!!!
So I’m a big historian and have always wanted an M1…I live in Alabama but how strict is the proof of marksmanship? I have my grandfathers M1 Carbine and would love to add a Garand to the collection
They say a concealed carry permit will suffice. In Alabama all you need is something like $30, a pulse, and no history with the law. Your county sherriff's department will have instructions on their website.
It would be nice to come to one of your stores... if they weren't 2000 miles from my house. ... I am a veteran and a certified instructor, and still can't get one in the mail. Cannot find a notary public and I live where you cannot have firearms sent to your home. Bummer!
the irony is these rifles are paid for several times over in tax payer dollars and blood. One veteran to another, you'd have better luck getting a quality M1 in a timely manner off gunbroker.
If you are over 60 I think you need to take the marksmanship course
Would a foid card count as a proof of marksmanship?
I have a swiss k11 but the ammo is too much to shoot consistently, would love to switch to a American classic.
Yes it does! I hope you enjoy it!
If you're info reloading, 7.5 swiss is super easy. Standard .308 bullets, just need some ppu brass and components. Mine loved IMR 4064.
Bit annoying to have to join a club I have no interest in joining just to buy a rifle, but eh. Join, buy, let it lapse I guess. I just want to have one 'cause it's been on my bucket list to have one since I was 8-9 years old.
@@deaddad6310 nothin on the private market I can afford that is in good enough condition to shoot. Private sellers think these things are worth a fortune.
Sheesh.. and I'm a veteran. No thanks.
How much does an M1 Garand cost from the CMP?
Here’s a link to our website with availability and pricing.
thecmp.org/sales-and-service/m1-garand/
That is why I love Kentucky, you fill out that ATF form, and 10 minutes later walk out of the gun store with all the guns you can afford. Zero crime here.
Does it cost anything to join the clubs?
Garand Collector's Association is $30.
Do you sell to Cubans or Mexicans if they are Citizens of the United States of America?
can proof of marksmanship be an active C&R license (03 FFL)? on the website it says "Firearms Owner Identification Cards that included live fire training" next to C&R license and my C&R license did not include live fire training.
As long as you do not live in WA, we are able to accept an active C&R for marksmanship! Thanks! 07-21-2023
I don't understand what the marksmanship has to do with purchasing the rifle.
Youre rules are redicoulous
Your rules are ridiculous!
There, I fixed your errors for you.
So when are you guys gonna start selling surplus stock standard US Gov M14s or M16s since those are both old rifles and about to be replaced with the M5/M7. Do you know when you can sign up to receive the next line of service rifles that will become surplus? Cause it seems like you guys have been selling M1s for what, 60 years?, you need to get up to day with the newer service rifles that are gonna become surplus. Thanks!
Lemme know what u find out
Got my H&R CMP correct grade years ago! Handpicked it in Anniston when the pickin's were good!
We hope it's treating you well!
Im buying grandpa gift
They should be free how many times do American citizens have to buy these rifles
CMP 👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎👎
I'm on my HS's MCJROTC Rifle Team, we went to Anniston, AL for the 3PAR regionals, best experience I'll ever get from HS.
Thank you CMP!
That's fantastic! We are glad you had such great time!!
Im so glad I bought my M1 Garand back in 2015
They told me 6-8 weeks. I got my rifle in 6 days last November. Absolutely wild.
I think one of mine came in about 8 days and one in 2 weeks. Still not terrible.
Do you guys know when the 4th round of 1911s begins? I would like to know when so I can know when to get started on my paperwork. I love my M1 I bought from you guys.
Hey Mason! Glad to hear you are loving your M1 Garand. They are truly an amazing piece of history. The Round 3 cutoff has been extended and the order window is still open for 1911s. We have another video on our channel detailing the 1911 order process. You can also find more info here: thecmp.org/sales-and-service/1911-information/
Thank you!
@@CivilianMarksmanshipProgram Just sent my form in today and double checked everything. Can't wait to eventually get my 1911.
Too many hoops for me.
You never said how much the rifle costs after going through all that bs.

@@CivilianMarksmanshipProgram ok thanks
Why do you have to jump through so many hurdles to get one of those guns? Proof of marksmanship. And membership in a cmp organization.. I have a M1A scout squad in 308. Great gun. I've taken many deer with it.
Get ready to drop a grand.
Do they give you a break on price?...
@@ronpilchowski9898 CMP has different grades. I think the lowest is "rack grade". Each grade is a different price and there are waiting lists for different grades/firearms.
@@richardlahan7068 do you know the range ? Thanks
So you can’t join unless you made E5 ? But my being a VFW member negates that ?
I got one that was issued for Korea, brought back and restocked. It's so beautiful
Would being listed on the NICS database mean you're disqualified?
I bought an M1 at Perry in 2019. Am I still on file?
Yes, you should still be in our system. Any information you used that may have expired since then will need to be updated. Thank you and for more information visit our website. thecmp.org/cmp_sales/eligibility-requirements/
Can't wait to get my hands on a Garand. Going through this process now, thank you for the video!
Seems an awful lot like a scam. Precisely why would people jump through your hoops to purchase an item that can be purchased elsewhere without a ton of red tape?
I just learned that my father used one of these when he was in the Army in the 60s. What can I expect to pay for one that in excellent condition?
That is awesome! We appreciate your father's service.

Literally no straightforward instruction in form 3A, have been trying to figure out for weeks how to properly fill it out, no help at all
Now how to find ammo for one. I've had mine from the CMP since October, and I haven't been able to find any ammo besides Turkish surplus, and I'm not taking a chance with that.
Does CMP have a list of M-1s they have worked on? Serial number wise.
The affiliated organization isnt required, just sillyness
How to buy a m1 garand Im herein the philippines
Garand superfan here...just picked up a rack cmp m1 and could not be happier!!! waited over 20 years to be able to get a hold of one of these historic rifles!! looking forward to my family enjoying it for generations!
Glad you love it! Are you gonna take it to the range?
