Good pickings this morning. I got lucky and was part of the 8:30 group. Picked up a nice 6 digit service grade with a beautiful GAW stock with no rebuild markings.

There were 17 customers at opening and the racks were full, I’m told.

Got in at 9:30 and the racks had been hit hard. There were 38 empty slots. There were several RRAD and a beautiful LEAD rebuild which I couldn’t believe was still there with a beautiful SA GAW stock with a great orange triangle stamp that I tried to pass to new customers in the store but couldn’t find anyone interested!!! They missed the opportunity. It was one of the nicest LEAD rebuilds I’ve seen in the store and was my gem of the morning.

Armorers today are Taska, Ellyn and Hunter.

SA SG 27/ FG 20/ SA 6 million 2.

HRA SG 6/ FG 4

IHC SG 5/ FG 19/ Gap letter 4 million FG 4

WRA SG 12

CMP Special SA/HRA zero/ FG 12

Good luck on your searches.

I was there yesterday morning, in the first group in at 8am. Went in wanting a Winchester, and was pleasantly surprised to find a lone Service Grade marked “WIN-13” among the others!

This was my first CMP purchase and first time at the CMP. This was many years in the making, and it lived up to the hype. Got there early, the same time as a few others from all over the country, and everyone was so excited—the time spent waiting for the doors to open passed so quickly. The staff was so accommodating as well, there early to take our paperwork and let us in if we needed to use the restroom. So fun to be around so many others as interested in the hobby as I am.

Can’t wait for the next trip.
