I thought the point of the CMP was to get reasonably priced firearms into the hands of civilians to encourage shooting proficiency.

Maybe someone can explain to me how a >$1000 basic colt 45 that is used makes sense. You can buy brand new alternatives for less, even half as much. Is this the collector market driving pricing? If so, selling to collector types to hide in a safe doesnt fulfill the purpose of the CMP.

CMP prices on their 1911's have increased $200 across the board since Round 1&2, with Round 2 ending just a few days ago.

$1050-$1250, a two year wait and you have to prove membership of a club.

I understand the appeal of nostalgia and owning a piece of history, but that is too much for me.

Where an you get an actual USGI 1911 for less? WW2 made Ithacas sell north of $2k on Gunbroker.
