- Unboxing a Civilian Marksmanship Program (CMP) M1 Garand Springfield Armory.
As a philosophy major, the love for #history comes as a second nature. Luckily for me, my commanding officer (wife) got me this piece of history for my 35th birthday.
Thank you @TheODCMP for honoring my birthday with this. Y’all made a veteran very happy.

Congratulations from a Vietnam era veteran and son of a WWII veteran that served in the Solomon Islands 1943-44 (Guadalcanal and Tulagi) Having once owned an M1 Garand myself and being the generation that followed the "Greatest Generation" that rifle has a special place in my heart and it's symbolism as well is not lost on me. You are indeed fortunate to be the steward of such a fine representation of a pivotal period in this country's existence. Your wife is a good woman to gift something like this to you. I tip my hat to you both. With my utmost respect and best wishes.
I sent mine to the CMP a couple years ago for a full restoration. New Criterion barrel, new stock, everything parkerized... and for a very reasonable cost. Very much on par with yours. Very, very happy with it
Been watching this for the past two weeks in anticipation for my expert grade. She will arrive this weekend and I cannot wait. It has been a long time coming. For those who are on the fence, do not hesitate! These rifles are amazing, hold such historical significance and belong in anyone's safe. They do not last long so get one while you can!
Great to see another M1 go to an American citizen. I bought my H&R Garand in 1986 from the DCM (US ARMY) for $165. Good investment, I wish Federal would restart ammo production for the M1.
Congratulations and happy birthday! The M1 is truly a work of art.
Very nice and soooo fun to shoot. I received a service grade from CMP with a new CMP stock. I really didn't care for the "dry" look of the stock and added two coats of boiled linseed oil right over the existing coating and was a great improvement. The wood looks much "richer" now.
I love the M-1 as I trained with it at Ft Dix NJ in 1960. I owned six of them now down to three . I always enjoyed shooting the M-1 . This video shows a beautiful specimen and I knw he will get untold years of shooting satisfaction and enjoyment
What a thing of beauty! Thank You for your service enjoy your piece of history
I also purchased an M1 from the CMP back in 2016 and it was a service grade with a new stock. The rifle was built in December 1941 at Springfield Armory.
Beautiful rifle - and thanks for the reverence. I am impressed by both the rifle and the case that came with it/.
Congratulations! That is a beautiful fire arm!
It's like seeing the discovery of the Holy Grail. Well shot video! Thank you. Your passion for this epic weapon is obvious.
thank you for your service
Congrats on a very nice purchase!
Wow that's gorgeous, congratulations.
Congratilations! The m1 is an iconic weapon. (from Brazil)
I bought a rack grade M1 from the CMP just recently and I was surprised at how good of shape it's in, only two pretty bad gouges I could see on the stock, and one hand guard is cracked, but the metal is phenomenal. I opened up the case and handed it to my Grandfather and said "see if this seems familiar to you." Mine is a Korean War era. Grandpa went to both Korea and Vietnam.
BEAUTIFUL FIREARM!
Beautiful!! Big pucker factor at
Looks great and really well made. Probably much higher quality than what was mass produced back in the day. Of rifles of this era, i've only fired the Lee Enfield Mk. IV, but it was an antique example (in 1990's), hanging on for grim death and in need of a rebuild/refurb. On the 60 yard range it was still grouping well considering it's age.
