I got a CMP 1903 Springfield and an M-1 Garrand in the same shipment. When I opened it up and got them out they looked a little rough with cosmoline and my wife immediately said, “Old, old, old”. I guess she thought my new weapons would be new.

I think the politicians think they paid for them (using money they took from us).

Same here, brother.
Always loved “Ol’ Slabsides”... First handgun I ever learned to shoot.
I’ve got a Springfield Armory M1911A1 “GI Issue” from the late 80s, but the safe has a bare spot where a vintage WWI or WWII piece would sit perfectly...
That space must be filled... it’s a moral imperative.

A 1911 was the second pistol I learned to shoot. It was a Colt Series 70 Gold Cup National Match. It is a very accurate gun and I still have it after about 35 years.

One of my Marine Gunny uncles had his WWII Pacific bring-back and he taught me to shoot on it.
Loved it from get-go.
My son loves to shoot mine. He’s already claimed it, and I’m still here... (damned brat!!!) :^)

This is one of the best ways they spend our money, so give ‘em a break. Expecially when the SOP has been to run surplus military vehicles into a crusher rather than sell them for re-use and other stupidity.

Aren’t they supposed to have to “off you” before they can inherit anything?

Never fight an old man. If he’s too old to fight you he’ll just kill you.

I’ve been told by someone that works with the CMP, that they’re probably going to be sold via auction.
