    CMP is releasing new M1Garands built on Heritage Arms receivers.

    An Update from CMP Chairman and CEO Jerry O’Keefe As some of you may have seen on social media, we are about to roll out a new program – the new M1 Garand by CMP.  In March we brought two “test” M1 Garands out to Phoenix and the Ben Avery Shooting Facility during the Arizona Game & Fish March Outdoor Expo.  We did the same at the recent CMP Eastern Games in NC to begin to introduce this new CMP project and product line.  It is in fact a project we’ve been working on for quite some time with our partner and the manufacturer of the receiver – Heritage Arms USA. More about Heritage Arms USA will follow below.  The CMP is excited about this new program, and with thousands of social media views and about 1,000 mostly positive comments, we hope all our customers and competitors will be excited as well. What is it? To start with the basics . . . it is a commercial reproduction of the classic and historic rifle with a commercial forged receiver as its centerpiece. The CMP and Heritage Arms used both the original drawings and specifications of a Springfield receiver and, of course, the actual historic receivers themselves to recreate identical, forged replicas of the original. And yes . . . it is, in fact, a forged receiver.  The forged receiver with a CMP serial number in the classic, historical font and format on the receiver heel makes this a unique offering.

      I'm all for it, anything that keeps the CMP going and the supply of M1 Rifles available in the future. But I'd rather see us have more success getting the remaining stock of genuine Garands back home. There has never been a better time than now.

      ...we are working with the U.S. Government to repatriate others from foreign countries. U.S. M1s are still out there around the world in good numbers, however getting them home is a complex, time-consuming, diplomatic effort, and certainly nothing is guaranteed.

            I like how in the video while they're talking about the certificate of authenticity, they're showing the authentically WAY off center heel of the rifle in the stock. (1:20 if you want to see it)
