CMP 1911 Information

Status of the CMP 1911s, 1/29/2018:
 
The CMP has been authorized to receive 8,000 1911 type pistols from the United States Army.
 
The 1911s have been received by the CMP.  A complete inventory will be conducted over the course of th is  week. The pistols will then be securely stored until the Army-approved 1911 building and armory infrastructure is completed.  That completion is anticipated to be approximately 60 days from now. Once the 1911  a rmory is completed ,  inspection, grading, repair, and ultimately test firing of the pistols will begin. (Please be aware that the CMP was led to believe that we were ready to move forward, but three weeks ago facility requirements were changed, and we are now fulfilling those requirements.)
 
The CMP 1911 order packet will be posted 90 days prior to the order acceptance date and opening sales date. No orders will be accepted prior to that date. Please visit www.thecmp.org, click on the  Sales  icon then  1911 Information , for the latest. CMP customer service has been inundated with calls and emails concerning the 1911s and no further information is available at this time.
 
The CMP will keep everyone posted as we move through this process.

CMP Talladega Marksmanship Park

The Most Modern and Advanced
Rifle, Pistol and Shotgun Range in the United States 
The latest addition to the CMP is its 500-acre outdoor marksmanship facility in Talladega, Alabama. The park is the first of its kind in the country and is one of the most sophisticated in the world - housing electronic targets similar to those used in the CMP air gun ranges.

The range also contains pistol and shotgun opportunities, including a 5 Stand Field and Sporting Clays. At the heart of the facility stands 13,000 square feet of stunning craftsmanship in the CMP Park Club House. Guests are treated with a back patio area that overlooks the 600-yard range and beautiful mountain views.
