    The Civilian Marksmanship Program Now Offering M1 Garands in .30-06 and .308

    Right now the Civilian Marksmanship Program (CMP) is offering refurbished Springfield Armory M1 Garands chambered in both .30-06 Springfield and .308 Winchester. And because the CMP is a government-chartered program, they're going for extremely reasonable rates.

    CMP rifles are all surplussed US government issue (USGI) rifles that have been cleaned up and repaired if necessary, and test-fired to make sure they're in good working condition. Each rifle comes with a hard case, a manual and one en-bloc clip. The eagle eyes over at the Armory Blog found that the CMP has started offering new CMP Special grade M1 Garands in the original .30-06 as well as .308.

    And what does any rifle cost anymore like an AK or AR15? Pretty much that price range. Lastly these are real deal M1 Garand rifles, not reproductions. They only made so many and they're running out.

    These are rifles built up on original receivers. The collectors valve is not there. They are however made up for NRA Military Match shooting. These are nice rifles. I like ordering from the South store in Anniston, Ala.
