Here's a BIG item that many people forget. You have to have the proof of address page notarized by a notary public. When I moved to another spot around Richmond, VA - I forgot that and it hung up my ability to buy a rifle until I got the original address page notarized. I'm carrying it in hand to Camp Perry just so it won't get lost in the mail and then I couldn't get a rifle there if I desire.

I visited the CMP North Store yesterday. I did not see any Service Grade Garands on the racks. I did see Rack grades, Field grades and some nice Select grade Garands. For very decent shooters, these Select grades could be the right choice. They have new wood, new barrels and other GI parts that have been refinished. The rumor mill up here at Camp Perry says that they are expecting a new truck load of rifles any day now before the J C Garand match.

The right way to do it is to shoot in a qualifying match.

What is the price on the select grade?

[Peter Costas]

Honorably discharged veterans, current or retired law enforcement and current military do not have to shoot in a qualifying match.

But the veteran still has to be a club member,right?

That is correct. You can join the Garand Collectors Association at the store.

still have to be a member. I had my birth certificate, drivers licence, DD214 and still had to show proof of membership and shooting activity. Your conceled carry licence will do nicely.
