well, seeing as how there are only 3,024 people ahead of me, I'm feeling pretty good. Just concerned that my son hasn't gotten a number yet and being how he is now stationed in Bahrain and is notoriously poor about keeping up with archaic forms of communications like e-mail, I advised him to give it a couple weeks then email that cmp address for 1911 issues. In the past, CMP has been pretty great about working with you on "real" problems

All you can do is wait and see my friend. My RNG was 9446 and I was told they do not have enough pistols to complete my order. You can laugh now but 2 years ago when I got my email I wasn't sure that I'd ever get one.

Mark Johnson made it clear on video that we shouldn't ask the question nor will CMP discuss any details.

While I definitely wish I hadn't procrastinated on getting my packet in early, I'm fairly confident I'll get one. My FFL got a pretty rad one as one of the last of the last batch, and getting mine later in the year (or next) will be nice for the budget.

You continue to speculate with the numbers, and confuse the whole process doing so.
Quote "these have to be inspected by the CMP first." is blatantly wrong.
All, speculation on the forum might be fun for some, but random is random.
We'll all get a pistol eventually.
So cool !

I don’t understand your comment—aren’t all of the pistol inspected? I think Mark Johnson mentioned they got the guns highest rated by DLA first, so we might be into the lower grades that might need (hopefully just) minor work.

Got RNG 224xx Sat 4-10.

We are working with an incomplete data set, but you can't find one person that submitted on 1/4 that got a RGN over 26,000. You also can't find a late Feb./early March submission under 25,000. I submitted late Feb. and was 29780. It will be interesting to see if that changes as we get more data.

Packet Sent: 2/4/2021
RGN: 279xx
Expect Call: 12/15/2021
Expect Available Grades: All

Just an idea / comment. Everyone who qualifies during the open submission period gets a number. Then, those numbers, whether low, high, or in the middle, are randomly selected, a set batch quantity every day, until the numbers are exhausted. That way, people residing in the same household aren't assigned sequential numbers or the like, that has raised some speculation about the current RGN process. This way, anyone could "get the call" at any time, and maybe everyone would be satisfied. Again, just an idea / comment.

I have my RGN (298xx), so I'll patiently wait.

I saw that trend too, that's why I said "supposed to" and "should not have" in my statement ;)

My packet arrived on March 4th and my number is 30196
