Let's just say I got a pretty good sized tax return this year, so I'm looking in to getting my first M1 Garand from the CMP. Gonna put a order in for a Greek rack grade(all thats left) and hope for the best that I get a good one.

Anyways, I think I've got all my stuff good to go. But for the club affiliation part, I've just sent in the application for GOAL(I know, should have joined a while ago but havent had the time or extra funds) and was wondering how long it will take them to mail me the membership card so I can get a copy of it and get the packet sent out? Would it be ok for me to mail it out the packet now and say I just sent my app to GOAL in or should I just wait?

And what are the best sites to learn about the M1? Any other advice about ordering from the CMP would be greatly appreciated.

thanks
 
Before they considered the American Legion and DAV, etc , I had no affiliation either. I sent my app into the Garand club, sent the CMP a copy of the app and had no problems getting my M1 shipped in just a few days.

I doubt you'll have any problems.

Here's one site to visit for info:

another is:

Thanks, but I already mailed out the app so I have no copy. But I regestered for the forum you linked me to so Ill ask there too. Does giving them your SS# help speed things up any?

thanks again

Its a quick turnaround either way if they have rifle in stock so I would not be too concerned on omitting that info.
