CMP guys, please school me...

I gotta have a Garand. Somebody walk me through the process of getting one through CMP. Is it pretty simple?

[macphisto]

Pretty much all you have to do is attend an Appleseed, join the RWVA (if you're not already a member of a qualifying club), and pay the man his money. Then wait. Tom Petty says it's the hardest part.

I am a member of some local club so I have the option of getting the CMP rifles. That is pretty much all you need and the ordering info provided by TC95GT.

If I remember correctly, being a USPSA or IDPA member qualifies too.

It's really easy. The paperwork just takes some time and has to be notarized. I just read the material on the website and followed the directions exactly.

Took about 45 days from the time I submitted my order before my Garand arrived.

Thanks!

Thank-you gentlemen!

Can someone confirm this? I thought the local club had to be affiliated with CMP program.

[farmerj]

It does.

And they have a listing of local clubs on the ODCMP website.

USPSA here:

http://clubs.odcmp.com/cgi-bin/clubSear ... N&state=MN

Listed at the bottom of each state.

Couldn't find IDPA listed as an aproved organization.

I know Bensdad has shot USPSA, so that should work (if he is a member of USPSA). FR&PC is also listed as an aproved club.

The GSSF is also a CMP affiliated organization.

[bensdad]

Either USPSA or membership at the gun club work. I haz both

I picked up the Special Grade (new stock, barrel) - it came in as a Springfield in the 5 million series. It looks awesome.

I haven't shot it yet - but everything is in great shape. I'm hoping to get it out sometime this week.
