CMP WILL BE OFFERING A NEW M1911<\/a><\/p>\n

Tennessee-based\u00a0SDS Imports<\/a>\u00a0has partnered with the federally chartered Civilian Marksmanship Program to offer an alternative to those looking to get a GI milsurp\u00a01911<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The CMP has been in the\u00a0Army surplus M1911 business<\/a>\u00a0for the past half-decade, drawing up to 10,000 each year since 2018 from a dwindling supply of 100,000 mostly World War II-era guns long-stored at the Anniston Army Depot. However, everyone realizes these guns are in short supply \u2013 leading to a\u00a0lottery syste<\/a>m by CMP to sell them to the public with prices starting at $1,050 for even a very well-worn pistol \u2013\u00a0and eventually the Depot will run dry.<\/p>\n

With that in mind, in a partnership announced at\u00a0SHOT Show<\/strong><\/a>, the organization and SDS have teamed up with\u00a0Tisas\u00a0<\/strong><\/a>to produce a special CMP M1911A1 model for sale to the public to help fund its national\u00a0youth-focused marksmanship efforts<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The .45 ACP Government model, according to SDS, will be “a museum-grade reproduction of a mid-war M1911A1 as it was issued during the Second World War.” This will include “United States Property” markings, a Type E hammer, and reproduction WWII-style brown plastic grips \u2013 although an extra set of walnut double diamond checkered grips will be included with each gun.<\/p>\n

The slide, frame, and small parts will be Manganese Phosphate finished, and there will be no MIM parts used in the manufacturing process. Like most Tisas 1911s, it will have Series 70 internals.<\/p>\n

“The CMP is pleased to announce our partnership with Tisas USA to provide this extraordinary CMP-branded, museum-grade replica of the M1911A1 to our many customers and competitors,” said CMP CEO\u00a0Jerry O\u2019Keefe. “This pistol will make a great companion piece to the surplus M1911A1 pistols sold by the CMP or just a great pistol on its own to shoot or collect! This is part of CMP\u2019s effort to expand our pistol offerings both in sales and competitions.”<\/p>\n

Tim Mulverhill, CEO of SDS\/Tisas USA, said, “We are quite honored and very excited to have partnered with the Civilian Marksmanship Program on this project. Being able to take our historically accurate Tisas M1911 A1 and offer it in an exclusive CMP model is a great opportunity for Tisas to show their commitment to helping train and educate United States citizens in the responsible use of firearms.”<\/p>\n

The MSRP for the Tisas-made CMP M1911A1 will be $479 and will be sold through the organization, with proceeds going to help fund its mission.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
