Thanks for the info. Maybe things will change when we get a new president providing it isn't the hildabitch.

Not really a big surprise. I never thought it would happen in the first place.

I just received a response form my sales rep at CMP in Anniston Al. she informed me that it is very unlikely that any 1911 pistols will be available to members who were eligible for everything else they sell..
Sorry for the bad news, but its directly from the CMP not BS.!

Can you copy and post exactly what they wrote?

I would like to see a copy also.

It can't be much of a surprise to most of us considering who we have sitting in the White House. Clinton gets elected, bet they go directly to Capt. Crunch for a melt down just as soon as she can have it done. And that sure won't be the worse thing she does.

A long as there is a Democrat in the White House they will sit a rot in storage.

c-j, there are worse things that can happen. Look at the firearms her husband put through Capt. Crunch during his time. No reason to believe she won't go right back to it. Come up with some lame excuse. ( it's for the children or something like that ) My grandkids are shooters from a very early age, it sure won't be for their benefit.

Chris I believe that her husband was the reason that their was a law passed where it is illegal to destroy old weapons ie 1911 Garands Carbine because of their historical significance. She could not destroy them if she wanted to.
Bill wanted to destroy a batch of M1A s but found out he could not do it so he found some small country somewhere with a small army. Now there are 5 M1As for every solider in that country. If Bill could not destroy them he just gave them away to some 3rd world county,

M1A's ???

Perhaps you mean M14' s ?

A lot of the folks do not realize there is a difference. M14 = forged receiver semi/fully automatic rifle, M1A = cast receiver semiautomatic rifle(unless it is Chinese).

That still sort of leaves the door open for Club Sales, doesn't it?

[Chris W.]

If their is one thing I'm sure of is that the fate of these 1911's will rest on the winner of this election. Clinton wins, there gone, Trump wins, the sale is on, that simple. Like so many other things in this country and the fate of America as well, we loose this one, we are screwed.

IIRC Congress passed a law that said the 1911's were to be transferred to ODCMP/CMP for sales. A the rate of 10k? a year. But the hold up is that a government owned? entity has to get a FFL to transfer the weapons to FFL's in states that allow 1911's on their *authorized* lists. And BATF and State Dept are the ones holding it up, so no sales. Of course I could be wrong, and alot of times I am.

It said the Secretary of the Army may do all that and currently we have an acting secretary of the Army.

State Department has nothing to do with anything already here, only can control imports. ATF has no say so either, it's codified in Federal law. All that has to happen is the Secret Army sign off.
