Since there seems to be many of us who got in on the CMP 40X's, how about a thread similar to the "Suppressor Wait Time" thread? List the applicable dates for your order and update your post as time goes by. Even a pic when the big day comes!

Hopefully this will keep us all better informed as the process goes along.

Overall condition: Fair, Metal is all good. Trigger pull is about 4.5lbs. A beaver attacked the stock. Most of the spots will steam out but the bad ones are missing wood. I will probably clean it up as best I can.

Barrel code: WELB has it born on 10/64 I think

Re: CMP 40X Status Thread

cc was charged 12-21. I added that to my info. I think that might be the best "countdown starter"......course don't know how long the count is!!!

Gotta start looking for a stock now. Maybe santa has an A5 he doesn't want
 
Re: CMP 40X Status Thread

As of 21 December my balances show Paid in full, ie. $0.00. Yesterday the 22nd, my orders show processing with a note stating shipping in 7-14 days. Its going to be a long 14 days.....
 
Re: CMP 40X Status Thread

I just got a email today from the CMP showing they charged the credit card. My Estore now shows they will ship within 30 days.

I'm impatient, actually there was a note about "waiting for ppwrk" in my order status so I emailed to verify they had what was needed, she said yes and it was in shipping.

You'll get an email with tracking number when it ships they said.
 
Re: CMP 40X Status Thread

Interesting. I never received an email from shipping however I went and checked my pending order this morning and read that it had shipped this morning and is scheduled to be delivered tomorrow morning.

Excitement.

Same here. That's 26 days total from reserving online to my door (assuming it arrives on schedule)...
 
Re: CMP 40X Status Thread

Ditto... My USMC arrives in the morning. My SS Heavy and sights hasn't shipped yet. Pics will be posted when I am home again.
Way to go CMP for the fast processing.

Re: CMP 40X Status Thread

Emailed this morning for the USMC delivery today. Another email received a few minutes ago with tracking numbers for the SS HB and my sights. Delivery for these two set for 31 December.

The wife called about 10am, FedEx had a box that required her signature.

I'm looking forward to getting home!!
 
Re: CMP 40X Status Thread

I couldn't be any happier with my 40X HB. The metal is in excellent shape and I was able to land a matching bolt/action. The wood has light scratches with no large dings or scrapes. I can't locate the camera at this moment however once I do I'll be sure to add some photos. It's a beautiful rifle.
 
Re: CMP 40X Status Thread

Man I'm jealous. I ordered mine on 12/6 online. I had a confirmation email on 12/15 that all of my paperwork was good to go.

My credit card hasn't been charged yet either

Edit: Oh snap! My CC was charged on 12/29 and just hadn't posted to my account. Sweeeeet!

I bet my apartment complex freaks out when they deliver a firearm to the front desk. LOL.

Re: CMP 40X Status Thread

Got home to the notice on the door. It said I could pick it up after 6 so I had to wait for almost 2hrs before running down the street to pick it up (FedEx hub is less than 5min from my house). Like the Garand a few years ago, the 40X is in better shape than I was expecting. The metal looks almost new. Some minor scratches, dings, and a painted #3 on the stock but it should clean up nicely.
 
Re: CMP 40X Status Thread

Well they charged my credit card but the status says " Hold Order - Rilfe Order - Need documents before shipping." All my paperwork went in weeks ago. Not sure what is going on.

EDIT - got a response from CMP. My paperwork is done. I'm in queue for shipping. Screen will be updated when they ship.
 
Re: CMP 40X Status Thread

It says "Pending" but my card was charged a week ago, so we should be getting close. It looks like I got my paperwork in about the same time as guys who are getting their rifles!

If mine looks as good as MHill's does in his photo I may end up taking it to bed with me.
wink.gif


I really do need to get a base and some 30mm rings so I can take it out and shoot it when it gets here.
 
Re: CMP 40X Status Thread

Gents,

I just got my first look see of my USMC 40X from the CMP. I can't get you all photos tonight, but here is a run down.

Wood is excellent. Has adjustable LOP. Three sight blocks. Matching bolt serial number. Crown is perfect. Action looks as new. Barrel has a few scratches and one very fresh minor gauge. It is about 1/8" about mid length at the 10 O'clock position. Here is the best part.... According to Don in SC's post,

http://www.snipershide.com/forum/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=1525675&gonew=1#UNREAD

Mine was born in......Now get this.....July, 1937. Codes O and F.

The SS HB and sights arrive tomorrow, but I'll be in DC. I get photos posted of them all when I return.

Happy New Year!!!

Pretty rare, considering that they weren't made till '54
Look at your code again, the two in the center. IF o and F, should be July of '59

Re: CMP 40X Status Thread

Just delivered. One had the bolt knob sticking out of a hole in the shipping box....never a good sign!! But both rifles are nice.....nothing extraordinary either way, just two solid rifles in pretty nice shape. One has a matching bolt the other doesn't. Metal is pretty nice on both with the usual nicks and spots of thin blue, but overall nice. Stocks have the usual assortment of small dings, but no dreaded beaver damage or chunks missing!!

Re: CMP 40X Status Thread

Recieved my HB today and am very satisfied. Matching bolt, nice stock, good bluing, nice crown. I am really sad that it looks like I may have to sell it though...

Rifle was not sold FYI. Thanks
