M1 Garand by CMP – Order Update
October 1, 2025
The Civilian Marksmanship Program (CMP) has a long tradition of preserving and sharing America’s historic service rifles—most notably the iconic M1 Garand, which armed a generation of Americans during World War II and beyond. For decades, CMP has inspected, rebuilt, and shipped thousands of M1s into the hands of collectors and marksmen, keeping this history alive on the firing line.
Building on that same legacy, we’re proud to report we have received over 500 pre-orders for the new CMP M1. All of these orders will be fulfilled as part of the limited Founder Series, carrying the special FNDR-### serial number range. The pre-order time window ended on Oct 1, 2025.
Online orders are being accepted for the CMP M1 on our website at https://thecmp.org/m1-garand-by-cmp/.
Our partner, Heritage Arms, expects to begin delivery of production receivers in mid December 2025. Fulfillment of regular production orders is projected to begin in January 2026, starting with serial number 1001.
If you would like a low four-digit serial number in the first full production run, we encourage you to order early.
Visit https://thecmp.org/m1-garand-by-cmp/ for all the details.
