I'm going up to the CMP store this weekend and will take a look at them, if they have any. I think I'll still go with a SA as my first, though. 
Kalos,
I'm planning to head up to the Ohio store sometime this month. What is the best way to do the paperwork......send it beforehand or take it with me?
I have my identification put together, proof of marksmanship activities too. If I do the application to purchase, I can do it on site and have it notarized there, right?

I've not been there before, so I can't say for sure. I'm planning on taking mine up with me; I've got it all paperclipped together upstairs. As to the notary--I work in an office where almost everyone's a notary, so I got that done beforehand as well, but I've also heard that they should have a notary up there if you need one.
At any rate, I will do my best to remember to ask about these things, and give a full report when I get back home tomorrow.

Well, I went up there today... and came back empty handed. Of all the lousy times to come up with a 'delay' on NICS... my first ever, no less. So it looks like I'll be going up there next weekend too!
First of all, though, they haven't got any of the Greek M1s yet, so I can't comment on them.
Second, so far as forms go--just take your documents (birth certificate, proof of firearms activity, club membership card). I went up there with an order form printed out from their website and was told that they didn't need them--they've got their own forms at the store, and the lady who works the counter is a notary.
Are you -sure- you can come from MD, though? I had thought (and I have only the very faintest grasp of federal/state firearms law; enough to know that most everything is regulated, though!) that there was some law about that. I meant to ask, but under the circumstances, I kinda forgot.

Presumably I will be going weekend next--I've got no idea what caused this delay. I know I'm clean of all the things on the yellow form/notary sheet (in this case). But yes, I will ask. It makes sense to me as well that they ought to be able to sell you the same thing OTC as they can ship to your door--but we all know that 'making sense' and the government do not necessarily go hand in hand.

So are the rack grade guns generally worth having? The CMP description sounds a bit alarming on them. At $295, I am sorely tempted.

Maybe, maybe not. The one I picked was a Service grade, but one of the gents that works up there was talking about them. He said that some were nothing worse than a dirty bore--you just have to get in there with rods (which they have) and clean them out. I'm not sure I'd order one unless I was planning to rebarrel it, but if you go there in person and are willing to take the time to really go through them, you might just find a gem.
