And melooks like everyone got one but me
Stock; High wood; marked with last four of serial number and "S.G". Not sure if original to the rifle or if the serial numbers were added later. I'm unfamiliar with how USGI wood was marked for carbines. The oval cut on the opposite side for the oiler has a large cut on the top.
You could check the CMP forum for the best info.
I doubt there are any more folks going to get lucky now and based on the non-notice when they cancelled my 2.5 yr old order for Aguila .22LR ammo (I had to read about it on the CMP forum), I doubt we'll ever hear anything directly.
Just a note on thw 22lr orders. They did not cancell the 22 orders tht whre placed CMP finally gave up waiting on Aquila to fill the back order. If you have a ammo order pending they will call you when they get ANY 22 and then you can opt out. I will keep my pending order. I still don't know where to get 20k rounds of all the same ammo in one shot... So I wait. I did get a offer last year on some Remington but it was more than I was willing to pay seeing I jumped on the 22lr rem military contract stuff they unloaded a few years ago
I rarely go to that forum. I had no idea that they didn't cancel the orders, only what I read there. I was foolish and hesitated on the Rem ammo a few years ago, unsure how much SV I had left and have been kicking myself ever since then.
Does anyone know if this is over? Have all rifles been shipped? Will CMP let the people who didn't get one know they are not going to? At this point I expect it's not going to happen
Thanks
I could pay for that if you would like to part with itALERT
I just got an email from CMP at 11:44 today and my credit card was hit for $685, so I am getting a Carbine - so don't give up
I had totally forgotten about trying to get one and had given up, now I have to find the money again and sneak past the wife
I have given up hope
I guess I will not get an email saying I am not getting one
Received mine last week, it is one of the last Service Grades sent out, a Winchester, has new CMP wood but that is beautiful and it is hard to see the CMP cartouche
From what I heard the last SG's like mine and many of the FG's are new wood but the metal and the bore are great!
