More M1 Garands coming to the CMP

This is great news.

Way to go US military negotiaters working with the Philippines on getting our loaned rifles back.

This may be old news, but I didn't see it posted. If so, my apologies.

what condition will they be in? some of these buybacks are in rough shape and take quite a bit of time on cmp's part to get back into workable sellable condition

This is gonna be heresy but I don't care. They should break them down and re arsenal what they can. Bang. I Said it.

I don't know. Not sure anyone would know since the military takes possession and is responsible for getting them to the CMP.

Lol. Wouldn't it be nice if some of them could be found and sold as is, in good condition of course. Can't imagine why there wouldn't be some good ones in that 86,000 coming. Heck, maybe South Korea will get them back to us sometime soon as well.

Is that possibly a pic from the Philippines?

I haven't done any digging on it, but I'd hope shipments have started by now.

On a side note..I thought the cmp was to run out of Garands in mid 2017...don't think so.
