Dear All,
I have been getting into the CMP matches lately. I usually go to Braintree as it is the closest to me. They have Ar15 and M1 garands for the competition. I recently went to Holbrook's CMP match, and they had one M1 carbine that I was lucky enough to compete with. I like that the CMP matches are open to the public, you don't have to be a member of the club to take part, and you don't need to own a rifle to participate. Its a nice way to try out other clubs without joining. (I do belong to the Braintree Rifle and Pistol Club)
So my question to you all is this: is there a club that holds CMP matches that has club M1A/M14 for use? I would like to try one out and I like the idea of getting coached while I learn these "new to me" rifles.
I tried the club AR15's, as I do not own one of those either. I did just buy a special grade M1 garand from CMP and it is pretty sweet.
Some of these other clubs that have CMP matches have +100 yard ranges. Do they hold the competition at these longer ranges too?
Thanks for any and all imput
