It mostly depends on how many orders they have to fill. I've seen two weeks and three months. I got mine about ten years ago and it was a month to the day.

I know it takes a while, just curious if anyone had recently done the wait.

Thanks folks!

On the forum a lot of guys will state when they placed their order and when it arrived, sometimes that can help with determining the approximate time yours may come. That's how I could figure the time on my M1 Carbine. Don't know if that's still done or not today.

I must have got into some time flux. I sent my order in May sometime, and FedEx just dropped them off this morning. I know I know...no pics so I fail.

I'm $100 in disposable money away from ordering one myself. Been saving, want one nicer than the refinished rack grade I recently traded. From what I have heard, 1.5 months is reasonable but be prepared to wait 3-4 months.

Near positive I was a week or two ahead of you for the same thing, plus a service grade HRA. You shouldn't have long to wait.

Anyone know a good place to buy a garand if you didn't want to get one from the CMP?

Got mine same day

Drove up to the store on a week day. The armorer spent over a half hr, with me, checking Garands with the gauge and breaking them down. I ended up with a matching barrel, receiver, and stock 1954 HRA. The trigger pack made it a service grade. I have no doubt it was the best service grade in the CMP that day.

It was the best experience I've ever had buying a gun.

Mine took exactly 3 weeks from mailing the order to receiving it in my hands. This was about two months ago.

Thanks for reminding me that I used to live 2 hrs from the Anniston, AL location.

I'll be getting a service grade sometime this year.

Been a couple of years since I got mine, the selection last time I drove to Anniston was not nearly as diverse.

I would take the trip to Ohio or Alabama, the experience is worth it, and there is no guessing as to what you get.

I picked mine up direct from Camp Perry last July!

Wife wanted to see the Great Lakes, I wanted to see guns. She got Lake Michigan and Erie, I got Rock Island and Camp Perry
