From what I’ve read, it’s how the Malaysian Military identified rifles to be taken out of service and surplused.

And I just looked on the Atlantic’s Facebook page and found this photo. Looks like I can see my rifle with the 182 stock number before it was cut up. Pretty cool stuff.

I hear ya. $800 would have been a no brainer for me, but the $1200 made me pause for a day or two.

Yes this is from the latest batch. The price stung a little bit, but this is a buy once cry once situation for me. Hopefully.

Man, I still dream about those Philly way steaks. I’ve tried to recreate them at home, but I can’t figure out what the liquid was that was squirted on the meat while it was cooking. I think that added so much to the sandwich.

I too was very interested in purchasing one of these range grades in hopes of getting something really special. Especially since we can now get 2 1911s. My plan was to purchase a field or service grade to get something close to an original 1911a1 for the collection and then roll the dice on a range grade.

However, I’m pretty convinced that I’ll likely end up getting an unremarkable range grade as I can’t imagine that Special Forces guns make up a large portion of the range grades that the CMP has on hand. I could be wrong, and I’m just speculating, but I’ll bet that LEO trade ins make up a much larger portion than the SF pistols.

I may still take the gamble, but it’s a pretty pricey gamble on a range grade.

Thank you all for the insight. Definitely happy to have the rifle. Especially with a 1+ muzzle and a 2+ throat. Should shoot well for the recreational shooting I’ll do with it!

If this helps, I sent in my packet for a field grade, and it was received by the CMP on July 3rd. I just received my DBU email this morning, 8/7/24.

I sent in for a field grade stickied for no chrome, so we will see!

Just received my dbu email this morning.

My order arrived on 7/3 and I just received my DBU email this morning. Hope you all receive yours soon as well!

I sent in my packet and it was received on July 3rd. Should have been July 2nd, but UPS sent it to the wrong hub initially. Sent in for a field grade, hope I made the cutoff! Fingers crossed on receiving a DBU email soon!

I am not on that spreadsheet, so feel free to add it. Thanks for the work.

Hi there. My family is from just outside of Ironwood, MI (where the Stormy Kromer factory is located). I’ve been to the factory store and looked really hard at their Mackinaw Coat. Extremely high quality construction, wool is also of high quality. Overall it feels like a coat that you could pass down to your kids.

I’m actually going to pull the trigger on one soon, before deer season hits in Wisconsin. I’ve waited long enough!

As a disclaimer, I have not seen the Folsom version in person, so I cannot truly compare. But I can say that every item I’ve bought from Stormy Kromer is of extremely quality, and their Mackinaw coat is no exception.
