I take it one can't import a CMP on their own?
You could probably import one purchased from an individual in the US and with the aid of a broker, get it legally into Canada. By then, the cost would be about the same as the rifle could be had for here.
To buy a CMP rifle, there are several regulations that must be adhered to. I'm not sure about all of them but I assume US citizenship, not just residencey is a major requirement.
I think you need to belong to some sort of shooting org as well. There are also other requirements.
I've seen a lot of service grade M1 Garands/1903s and Carbines in the US, that were purchased through the CMP. There were a few that were as clean as the rifle in the OPs pic.
Rifles in that condition are few and far between. The buyer must have been in one of the outlet stores as soon as a new batch was set out. Most are well used but completely safe and functional. Most haven't been refurbed and put away as that one appears to be either.
One thing the OP doesn't mention is how much wear is on the muzzle or throat. That is another factor.
All in all, that is a very nice looking rifle. It's nice to see.
Many of the CMP rifles are coming home from overseas, from countries that actually purchased the rifles, rather than getting them as promotional lease rifles.
The Danish rifles and recently Korean rifles are now allowed into the country through the CMP.
China has several thousand in storage as do other nations, like Thailand, Vietnam, Malaysia and several other nations that were leased the rifles. To my knowledge, the leased rifles can't be returned to the US but can be sold to other nations, with US permission. It's complicated.
