RIFLES: The CMP currently has over 12,000 unfilled orders for rifles, ammo and other items. We also still have thousands of M1 Garands. These rifles all require inspection and repair and grading before being put up for sale. At times the customer demand exceeds the amount that our staff can make ready for sale.

As is the case with many other sellers of .22LR ammo, the CMP has been

manufacturer "maybe" will deliver 200-300 cases by the end of May, but

As a result of the NY SAFE Act of 2013,
effective immediately, all NY customers purchasing any CMP rifles, to
include the M1 Garand, to be delivered in NY must have the rifle shipped
to a NY licensed FFL dealer in NY for compliance with SAFE Act
requirements. Copy of dealer's license and shipping information must be
provided with rifle orders. Ammunition orders may still be shipped
