Not only did it take years to craft the legislation to get these guns to the CMP in the first place, the CMP had to build a special facility to store the pistols.<\/p>\n<p>With most of the hurdles behind them, the CMP is getting ready to start shipping. The CMP will have 1911s in four grades: Service grade, Field Grade, Rack Grade and a special Auction Grade.<\/p>\n<p>The Auction Grade guns are pistols of specific historical significance and the prices will be announced at auction. Also, the CMP announced the prices for the other grades. They range from $850 to $1,050 depending on their condition.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, buyers are limited to a single 1911 per person, including auction pistols, until the CMP gets another batch.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The M1911s currently in the CMP\u2019s vault came from two sources: the Army Museum System and the Defense Logistics Agency\u2019s long term strategic reserve,&#8221; says Morgan. &#8220;We spent almost an hour sorting through the museum crates, finding the pistols to be mostly of Colt manufacture with a variety of all original and mixed A1 parts.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2>See Also: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/cmp-clarifies-selling-1911s\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"cmp-first-batch-of-m1911s\" title=\"Touring the CMP: A Look into the First Batch of M1911s\">CMP Further Clarifies the Plan for Selling 1911s<\/a><\/h2>\n<p>&#8220;They all appeared to have original factory finish and they all are equipped with World War II-era plastic grips,&#8221; he said. &#8220;There are even a handful of National Match M1911A1s among them.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>If you are interested in picking up one of these historical handguns visit <a href=\"https:\/\/thecmp.org\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"cmp-first-batch-of-m1911s\" title=\"Touring the CMP: A Look into the First Batch of M1911s\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the CMP website<\/a> for more information.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\"><strong>***<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/Search.aspx?Keyword=m1911\" campaign=\"BuyM1911GA\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\">Don&#8217;t want to wait?
