Until inventory of these cases is exhausted, M1 Garands will be shipped in one of these cases at no extra charge. Cases are MADE IN THE USA for CMP. Case is made of GI green molded plastic & features a patented PillarLock system for extra strength and crush resistance. Each case is custom molded w/ CMP logo on each side. Interior foam rubber is of special dimensions to hold your rifle extra snugly. Case also features four black contoured recessed latches, padlock points, steel hinge pins& a molded handle. Case is large enough to hold one Garand, 1903 Springfield, 1917 Enfield or a 1898 Krag rifle. These cases are also available for purchase.

ESTORE CREDIT CARD CHARGING CHANGES. Currently, CMP does not charge credit cards until a few days before actual shipment. This applies to eStore orders also. Beginning before the end of October, we plan to modify eStore to automatically process the order and charge the card at time order is placed. This will result in eStore orders being shipped within 1-2 workdays after order is placed.

WWII ERA BAYONETS COMING SOON. Before the end of November, 2010 CMP will have the WWII era M1 model (10") bayonets for sale in the stores and on the eStore. Prices are not yet set, but these bayonets will be priced very reasonably.

COMMERCIAL GAS TRAP KIT AVAILABLE. As a service to our customers, we are forwarding information received from Rat Worx (Research and Testing Worx, Inc.) of Mt. Morris, Illinois. Newly-manufactured, fully-shootable gas trap front end kits for the M1 Garand rifle are now available. According to their Web site (www.ratworxusa.com), these gas trap parts are manufactured from the original 1937-40 U.S. Government drawings. Each part is fully interchangeable with 1937-40 production components.
