[QUOTE="Perplexed, post: 2367866, member: 7157"] Oh, the CMP has known for years that resellers were cashing in on the cheap HXP (and LC when that was available) for profit, which is partly why they instituted the 10 can per year limit a couple years back. Prior to that, buyers were backing up trailers and parcel trucks to the CMP loading dock for the ammo. Some of that went to clubs and shooting matches, but not all, which somewhat defeated the CMP's purpose of promoting marksmanship. For a while the CMP's stance was to sell the ammo regardless of where it went, since it involved less paperwork and manpower for them to sell 1,000 cans to one person than 1 can each to 1,000 people, but I believe they finally gave in to pressure and enacted these measures to curb the flipping. And to stretch out their dwindling supply of ammo to encourage the sales of their M1 Garands, I'd think. [/QUOTE]
