Really Dumb Question Regarding CMP Garand

[ezypikns]

What do I need to do to qualify to purchase a Garand from the CMP? I've just joined the Texas State Rifle Association and that's supposed to be one of the CMP affiliated clubs here in north Texas. What else do I need to do?

I think all you have to do is participate in a CMP sactioned shooting activity and pass a saftey test. (unless you're retired or active duty military)

Becuase until i just read that link i was thinking something different. So dont screw CMP then.

Plus, for some reason im paranoid of groups, dont ask why.

Not anymore. Your C&R or you CCW permit will meet that requirement now. Follow the link.

The shooting rule is pretty relaxed, pretty much any organized shoot that involves 50 rounds or more, attested by a range officer. Or, as already listed, LEO or Military Service, or C&R or CCW license.

The club/assn membership is absolute, gotta have it even if LEO/Military. Garand Collectors Assn, or any state's Rifle & Pistol Assn is fine, see the www.odcmp.com site for a full list.

There's no safety test. You don't have to know a sucking chest wound from a hole in the ground.

Move fast - CMP's Garand supply won't last forever.

Regards.

Also, the most important, you must be a US Citizen.
