So I am excited that I just saw my order for my first Garand (SA M1 Garand SG) changed from processing to shipped.
I sent in all of my CMP Paperwork on 01/11/13 (My birthday) and on 01/31/13 I got the DBU email from CMP. I have been a little worried as they stopped taking orders for the SA SG and hearing nothing on my order and not showing in the estore even though they sent the order to sales. I think it was a week or two ago that my SA SG Garand showed up in the estore and I have been checking it regularly. Today I see that it went to shipped. Tracking number took a couple of hours to be recognized in the system, looks like I will be getting it on Monday. Since I won't be home I am having it routed to a FedEx center close to my work and I can grab it on my way home.
Order Placed: 01/11/13
DBU Email 01/31/13
Shipped: 03/15/13
Received: 03/18/13
I also wanted to post this so anyone that has ordered a Garand from CMP before or after me can get an idea of how long it took for this particular order to progress. Once I get it I will have pictures to share also.
My ammo I ordered early February looks like it hasn't yet shipped either, hopefully that will be soon so I can test this Garand out at the range soon.
Update:
So I got it in and very happy with it. Looks like I got original wood. I was really hoping for original wood and not new wood. It's sticky as hell so now I have to figure out how to clean it all. I snapped some pics with my camera.
