    Did anyone else put an application kit in to purchase one of the Civilian Marksmanship Program 1911's?

    I believe that yesterday was the last day to have a purchase kit postmarked ... hopefully next week we'll start finding out where we are in line.

    Even if I end up with a Frankenstein gun, it'll be neat to have such a venerated piece of American military history.

    Mike,

    I sent in my order packet a few weeks ago. Hopefully you and I get a low random number. If not this first go around at least we are still in if they get another shipment next year. The process sure has caused a lot of heartache over on the CMP and other forums but I did not find it difficult, the instructions were clear. Good luck.

    I submitted my packet on the Oct 3rd. They say 75000 people will apply only 8000 will win, still better odds than the lottery.

    Bravo!

    I wonder how many actually made it to the draw, and how many went to auction?

    Hopefully there will be another batch next year and my app will be drawn! But not likely, my RNG is 18,601.

    I got a 6k number. There is a thread on the cmp forum dedicated to this program. Some say they aren't going in order, but if they call you and you dont answer they go to the next person. They will leave a voicemail and send an email. You have a certain number of days to call back or you get tossed

    They dont follow subsequent sales. Its your gun to do as you choose once you get it. Now if you get online and brag about how much you made on the sale that might be another matter.
