Back in June, we let you know that the CMP was beginning to sell off a supply of surplus U.S. Navy circa 1960s MK2 7.62 NATO Garand conversions-– of which AMF upgraded 17,050 rifles and H&R another 15,000 rifles using a 3:1 mix of converted .30 caliber barrels (the MK2 MOD 0 rifle) and new-made 7.62mm barrels from Springfield Armory (the MK2 MOD1).

The price at the time was $950 for the MK2 MOD0s and $1,600 for the MK2 MOD1s.
Well, that has now dropped to $900 (Mod 0) and $1200 (Mod 1) plus $35 shipping & handling per rifle.
Guns are available here.
Plus:
After review by the CMP Rules Committee, the following CMP Games Rifle and Pistol Competition Rules Rule G4.2.2 e) has been edited to: As-issued M1 Garands must be chambered for the .30-06 or the 7.62mm NATO (.308) cartridge.
This change will allow CMP MOD 1 7.62mm NATO M1 Garands to be used in As-Issued Military Rifle Matches – including the upcoming Talladega 600 in November!
