IHC Rack Grades from the CMP Mail Order Lottery

[Jersey Devil]

Been thinking about trying my luck at one of these rack grade IHCs. I have bigger and better projects that I'm working on, but I have a little B-day money set aside and some other funds from different things, and I think adding an IHC to the safe would be cool. I don't have, and never have had, an IHC. So if I score one then it will be my first-ever IHC!

I know they're going to be rough, but I may kick myself down the road for not at least trying to get in on this.

Anyone else here going to take the chance?

As rough as the last IHC Field Grade releases were I would be afraid to.

Years ago at CMP, many of the rifles were one grade better than what they were graded. I bought field grades that were
just as good or better than service grades in the racks. Today, I think CMP strictly adheres to their grading standards. Today's rack grades
will be rough.

Aww, heck, why not........against all suggestions and advice I'm gonna do it. I just wanna be able to say that I did it when I had the chance.

And, while I'm at it, I'm going to add a note specifically asking for the nastiest meanest ugliest and least finish possible.

Something about an old grungy ugly rifle that's traveled the world is just beautiful to me.

If I make it then it was meant to be!

Good luck! Post pics when it shows.

That's crazy you never had an IHC, I thought you had one of every manufacturer. It will be interesting to see what the cat drags in here! Pics will be mandatory here lol!

Well it may not be meant to be...................tracking number still shows my envelope as "in transit" and I'd suspect if it doesn't get there in another hour or so then I'm hosed. The CMP expects all of these to be sold the first day. It is what it is at this point. Damn USPS!!

[Jersey Devil]

Well, I still haven't heard an official "yes" or "no" from the CMP, but going by the fact that my envelope arrived several days late I'd say the chances are next to zero. I'll post an update when I get an update myself.
