So, I read joker's post. Is the CMP completing the NCIS BEFORE contacting us?? Or do they run it AFTER speaking with us on the phone???

When I called I was told my NICS was already completed. It was then a matter of picking, all grades were available to me, I selected Service. It came the next day, all Colt, dated to 1944, per colts lookup. It’s in Great shape, definitely refinished, with a replacement contract barrel, which from the markings and timeframe is likely Colt. I have yet to strip, clean and lube it and will do so before I fire it.

I agree, that a Field grade that was not refinished and showing some wear, would have also been a nice pick. I’m happy with my Service grade.

My guess is the run the NICS before contact to ensure we are in fact eligible.

My number 29886 so it should be coming up sooooon. :p I’m also hoping for a field grade. I have waited this long, if I have to wait another 90 days to get what I want so be it. I've always been told patients is a great virtue. :rolleyes:

Surprised you haven’t been called yet. Higher numbers, like mine were called, processed and already delivered. By The Way, I was told my NICS check was already completed. Received my Service Grade the following day. Good Luck.

Yes, but a friend is closer to 30k and was contacted and received a field grade. Not everyone is on this sight. Not sure about the 90 day delay. Could be inventory or NICS. Has anyone asked?

Oh Man! At 31,259 my number according to that graph shows I will be contacted when I'll be out of town turkey hunting. They have my home number, but even if they got ahold of my wife, where I hunt the cell phone reception is crap!

Just tell the Mrs. your order of preference and go hunting and enjoy yourself. Have her explain to the person calling. They are great people to work with at the CMP. Be sure and leave her with your credit card info.

Seems as though when he think you have it figured out as to when you might get called things change. No need to fret about it.

Careful with this info! Seems they won't talk to a spouse.......

I'm in a similar situation. I leave for a fishing trip to Panama soon and have a mid 30K RGN. Won't have anyone to answer the phone call while I am out and service is real bad on the coast. Oh well...
