Sgt. John Campbell Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 I'm really shocked that nobody has posted this news yet. Once these become available, I definitely plan to pick up at least one. http://www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2015/11/25/breaking-news-it-is-now-law-the-cmp-can-sell-1911s-to-the-public-a-thanksgiving-day-miracle/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J. Frank Norfleet Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Only 10,000 to be sold, if I read correctly. I bet they will be expensive! Not the $12 they were in the early '60s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boggus Deal Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 I read it as 10,000 per year and while they may not be cheap, I expect them to be better priced than what's on the open market, now. Look at Garands. The CMP prices are not too bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allie Mo Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Hello, I am not sure this is true. The following Website has a list of signed legislation as recent as 11/25. I could not find it. https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/signed-legislation Regards, Allie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
