CMP guns are junk. If you're reading this I would advise against ordering one. Especially a service grade IHC with an LMR barrel. They're the worst.

Im glad I went to Perry and picked out a Springfield literally weeks before you couldnt find anything other than the expensive ones on the shelf. I believe I paid $525 for it. Mine has a IHC triggerguard and 1949 Winchester barrel on it with the receiver being a 1945. I would like to have a IHC also but im just not willing to fork out the $$$ for one. I can buy 2.5 AK kits for that $$ or alot of ammo...unless its .22lr

I agree. Run as fast as you can in the other direction. Especially if the receiver is a Postage Stamp or Arrow head.
I've gotten 12 Garands from the CMP, all Service Grade, and not one of them was junk. SA, IHC, but mostly HRA.
That's how you know they're junk. They couldn't even stamp the receiver correctly. If I were looking for a Garand, I'd probably buy an SAI repro from the upcoming 1500, and stay far away from the CMP. At least for a couple of weeks.
They wont be offering the IHC's on the shelf until March 19th.I'm heading to Port Clinton this weekend. Maybe I will check it out.

As further proof, the CMP website is advertising that they have a small quantity of the 4M S/N range "gap letter" rifles. The on thing for sure about IHC's is they had a hard time stamping their S/N's!!!

Ok, so there may or may not have been some sarcasm in some of our posts
Shown below is my 5,100,xxx IHC "Postage Stamp" facing us in this picture, next to cousins from HRA, WRA, and SA, and extended cousins, an M1a from SA, and a 1903A3 from Remmington.
