Quote from a WWII Marine: "If your ever in a jam, grab an M1 Gar-and, it wont" Thanks Pops After 911, I knew it was time to arm up. The first one I got was a 1944 SA. It was shot out, broken, and in ill repair. It all better now <---- Mr Odd Six says, she is not just a pretty face

h ttp://www.alloutdoor.com/2017/04/07/breaking-cmp-receive-86000-m1-garands-philippines/Good news for fans of the M1 Garand. The Civilian Marksmanship Program is expected to receive 86,000 of these surplus WWII rifles from the government of the Philippines. This is according to Gina Johnson, General Manager of the CMP South operations in Alabama. Johnson provided the information late on Friday, April 7, in response to a discussion at The M1 Garand Enthusiasts Group public Facebook page. “…(the) CMP will be receiving the rifles once the Phillipines prepares them for shipment. CMP reimburses the Army transportation costs of getting these rifles back as they have with every other shipment sent to us. We do not know when these rifles will be shipped back, but they have been approved…” Johnson said in a post to that group. These rifles were provided to the Philippines government through the Military Assistance Program, or a similar program, as military aid. This type of program essentially replaced the WWII-era “Lend Lease” program and supplied arms and aid to U.S. allies across the world. Since these rifles were loaned, not purchased outright, they are eligible for return to the U.S. Army and then the CMP. While there is no report on the condition of these specific rifles, the return of any M1 Garand to the U.S. through distribution by the CMP is good news. The CMP’s mission to promote firearms safety and marksmanship training, with an emphasis on youth activities, is funded through the sale of firearms to qualified U.S. citizens. For more information on how to qualify to purchase a CMP firearm read the CMP’s Eligibility Requirements.

Why aren't any of you Garand shooters coming to our CMP Garand matches on the 1st sunday of each month? Black Diamond Gun Club. $10 fee. No membership required. Next month there will be no Garand match due to a PITA shoot but we resume again in July. http://www.calendarwiz.com/calendars/ca ... nifr=false

Excellent duke! For the record, they open this shoot up to any military weapon, iron sights. So, you don't necessarily have to have a garand. For example I am using a Trapdoor! Another fellow last month had a K98.
