Fair market value CMP M1911???

[Bailey Guns]

Where are you guys buying USGI 1911s for prices less than what the CMP is planning to charge? And how do you figure tax-payer money is being wasted by selling them?

Every CMP gun I've ever seen has been better than the standard description from the CMP for any specific grade.

I'm trying to figure out why all the hate for the CMP over these guns? Maybe I'm missing something.

People think they should be dirt cheap because they're old. Try buying one in a gun shop or from a private seller for less than CMP prices.
