    Picked up my Field Grade today! RGN 37912. Was called last Thursday 5/11 and offered Service or Field grade. Mailed my packet late November 2022. I wanted a Field grade anyways so it worked out.

    1944 Colt Frame, Remington Rand Slide. Appears to have the original finish and both frame and slide have an equal amount of holster wear. Very pleased with my purchase. Was crossing my fingers to at least get a colt slide and I did! It was oiled up pretty well when I got it.

        That’s a really nice combo you go there! Finish looks great and “original”.

                Do we know if CMP plans to let people who already got one a few years ago in the first batch pick up another? I'd like to try my luck again to get one with more original WW2 parts. Wasn't too happy with mine because it came with a cage code contractor replacement slide from the 1990s.

                  Not yet. The CMP forum is practically dead since they switched over to some garbage format.

                    the activity or lack thereof at CMP Forum has nothing to do with any decision CMP could make regarding this idea.

                    the status is the same- a new MOU with the Army would need to be negotiated.

                      The CMP page still states only 1 allowed either from the auction or sales. CMP had so many problems with Tapatalk, they abandoned it. The forum is still alive and well through the CMP site.

                      Link at the bottom of the CMP page links to the forums: https://forums.thecmp.org/

                      From that link, clicking logon takes you to another link, which is an odd format: https://b34da70920f9-006155.vbulletin.net/

                      I log in almost daily looking at the classifieds.

                        CMP forum is a pain in the ***. I signed up for an account years ago and have never been able to get them to finalize it. I can sign in and have an account, but can't post anything, get any response from them, or have anyone who can post get a response when I ask them to PM the folks in charge.


                        I'd have been unhappy with a 90's contract barrel as well, although that's part of the history as well.

                        If anyone has a set of grips with rack numbers and wants unmarked, I'd trade. I like the rack number look.

                          Same here. Been 2 years or more, they never authorize my account. Whatever, I guess...
