New Springfield M1's?

[Firehand]

Anyone have any experience with them? I've been looking around for an M1 receiver, and I'm told Springfield is using the Lithgow-made ones. However, Fulton Armory tested one(receiver) a while back and got bad results.

My opinion is that they are overpriced, when you can buy a CMP one and have it worked on (new barrel, wood, park, essentially making it as new of a gun as the Springfield) for cheaper than what the Springfields are going for around here.

You just want a receiver, not a complete rifle?

You can get a stripped receiver from the CMP for under $200. I bought an SA reparked receiver from the CMP and ended up getting a 6 million serial number.

I have yet to build a rifle with it, yet.
