CMP's Exciting NEW M1 Garand - BAD for Collectors?

The Civilian Marksmanship Program (CMP) recently dropped bombshell news — they’ll be manufacturing brand-new M1 Garand rifles! But what does this mean for military surplus firearm enthusiasts? Will these new-production Garands flood the market, impact prices, or even change the way we value original WWII M1s? The announcement for the “M1 Garand by CMP” is certainly exciting. The specs sound on-point, with a forged receiver for durability, and the fact that it’s based on original USGI blueprints inspires confidence. But all of that comes with an MSRP that’s no joke — and that may be very concerning for collectors. Will the new production CMP M1 Garand be worth it? Thanks for Watching!
