Gentlemen,
This is part of my old post about this Called "Carbine and Garand Prices" Below that is what the DEM'S got away with. We as a group must start our work NOW to stop what will happened if the DEM'S take all in the '08 vote. Just remember, that could be YOUR M1 GARAND in that picture. To bad we could not start a group to get together around the country to meet and talk about these types of issues and then report that on the Garand Boards. Remember you guys travel MILES for a GUN SHOW.
Without input from you guys no one learns anything Try to put in some info/question and we can learn more of the M1's History.
"You guys can thank Ted Kennedy for the prices at CMP. Back in the mid-70's I ran DCM shoots. DCM gave you ammo, targets and rifles to shoot the course with. ALL FREE. Then came Mr Kennedy. He wanted the DCM shut down and the Dem's almost got the job done. They didn't get the votes needed to close the DCM BUT they got the funding from the US ARMY cut to ZERO. DCM had to change to stay alive. What they had to do was change into the CMP and had to fund the whole operation. Under the old DCM you could buy only 1 rifle in a lifetime at about 99 bucks. Well, CMP let you buy more then 1 rifle and had to keep raising the price to stay alive. You guys know that prices on almost anything has gone up, so the CMP had to raise their prices. Remember, CMP has done a great job in getting these Rifles into your hands. We now have the problem that the Dem's might take the White House in '08. The 3 best things for us to do is Vote, join the NRA, yes but they are on our side and just might save us in '08, and last but in my opinion BUY AMERICAN from the CMP. They are out there for you guys so let's help support them. Stop all this noise about price increases that is going on everywhere. CMP gets you the real deal."
Check out my sites if you have the time. Updates on M1 Ball/M2 Ball updated. TIA
Thanks again Clancy
