"The question has never been, "Does the CMP build correct rifles?" That is a known fact, never disputed."
"never disputed"
Laughing my butt OFF! Orest should indeed have been a politician. I just talked to another builder on this very day and the two of us were talking about M1D's. It is our fondest wish that we could get away with putting real D barrels on old D rifles and they would be called real D's. Nope though, only the CMP can do this because, somehow, the general public gives the CMP a GIANT pass in this regard.
If the CMP replaces EVEN one part, that rifle is NO LONGER an ORIGINAL rifle. I know it is still correct but the CMP correct grade rifle implies originality as well. I could build correct grade rifles all day long in the 5 million serial number range and hand out my own certificate but it will not garner the same weight as the CMP's "correct grade" rifle. It will not because the CMP correct grade implies originality as well.

Wake up and smell the coffee! We have been through all of the windage knob swapping observations before, and many other observers said that, yes, the knobs were changed out. So, my observations were correct. And, any time you have a 70 percent part on a 99 percent rifle, the part has been changed out.
CMP has been (and still is) still changing out the knobs - I just wish they would stop wasting their time, and breaking up original rifles. If you think I am making an ****** out of myself, so be it.
Oh, one other thing: if you buy a "collector grade" when CMP offers them, it might be some armorer's version of what he *thinks* a collector grade is, not the actual rifle that came from the factory.

Santa and Collector/Correct grades....what's next? My President isnt a US citizen?
CMP has ruined the M1 collector market. One day people will realize the rifles they really wanted are the ones that the CMP relplaced parts on.
