Just dropped in the mail box my 1st ever order to CMP for my 1st HRA Service grade
Garand, sure hope I'm not disapointed.

You won't be.

ETA: The waiting is the worst thing, though.

Not sure now, but my January order for two Springfields was filled to my door in about three weeks...not so long a wait in my case.  You may be surprised at how fast it gets done.

Well...Service Grades are really luck of the draw.  They can be very nice, or just OK.  I was pleased on my SA SG's.  Got a low number WWII rifle with mostly WWII era parts...some even correct for the receiver.  The barrel was a SA 65 replacement and the stock is SA, but not original of course.  Finish is a worn grey/green.  Have not gotten to the range to see how it does yet...so the jury is out on this rifle.  The other SA is a very late 5.8M with mostly correct parts except the very early WWII bolt.  Finish is near new black park., but could be a refinish.  That rifle is for my son and we also need to get that one to the range to test

I think you will be happy with what you get bearing in mind the grading system CMP uses.  I would like a SG HRA later in the year if they are still available.

I picked out a very nice SG HRA at the north store at the end of Feb. Most of the SG HRA's I saw there were in good shape. Mine gages under 2 at the muzzle and less than 1.5 in the throat.

I mailed out my app for a HRA field grade on Mar 2, it arrived on Mar 5, received confirmation Mar 20th. I figure I'll have it by early april.
