The Firing Line Forums - View Single Post - New Executive Order to ban the re-import of surplus rifles. Will this kill the CMP?

On Aug 31st, inside the customer bldg. of the CMP in Anniston, staff told me in person that "We are 5,000 M-1s behind because of ammo orders".

A primary problem that seasoned M-1 observers anticipate is that there are probably only very small quantities of M-1 loans to foreign countries that somehow are still overseas. The CMP might now have only a decreasing amount.

The probability that many people will refuse to believe that the CMP actually IS Exempt from this Executive Action will only increase the orders (some don't read gun websites). Keep in mind the additional present and possible future factors influencing demand.
