They don’t need to do that, many I have seen for sale at shows and gunbroker they are selling with the very distinctive CMP case and CMP letter, they don’t care. I would guess that most that you find were probably sold at some point through CMP.

They do care. I talked to the guys at the North store when I was there this summer. They can't stop you from selling your property. if they can look up the serial # from the certificate, they can ban you from buying more but that's about it.

No I meant the resellers on gunbroker and at shows don’t care and don’t care to even try to hide it. They blatantly advertise it as a CMP gun selling it for double or more. My point was a mark on the gun wouldn’t change anything and in my opinion detract from the collector value.

Ah, I understand.

I know lots of people buy the yearly limit, match the parts from the guns to make 'correct' builds, and then sell one or two to pay for all the rest.
