Any Tulsa shop stock CMP Garands?

[nemesis]

I've read on other forums about people who can go into local shops and buy CMP Garands.

If not, how do I do it? Send the CMP a check and my FFL's info? Then the FFL checks my CMP friendly gun club card, etc?

I think what you may be talking about is guns that were sold by the CMP being re-sold at a local shop. Sure, this can be done, but why not just buy from the CMP?

Agree. Go the CMP route. There may be a Garand or 4 on shelves in various Tulsa gunshops but they will most likely be priced higher than the CMP.

I may be selling a nice Letterkenny-rebuilt M1 Garand with a Springfield receiver made in 1943. PM me if interested.

no license needed. its the government selling it to you. CMP is "civilian marksmanship program" of the Department of Defense.

they don't sell to gunshops. you need to read up on their webite the rules to buy one.

from their website .....

From 1916 until 1996 the CMP was administered by the U.S. Army. Title XVI of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1996 (Public Law 104-106, 10 February 1996) created the Corporation for the Promotion of Rifle Practice & Firearms Safety (CPRPFS) to take over administration and promotion of the CMP. The CPRPFS is a tax-exempt non-profit 501(c)(3) corporation that has been Federally chartered by the U.S. Congress, but is not an agency of the U.S. Government (Title 36, United States Code, Section 40701 et seq). Apart from a donation of surplus .22 and .30 caliber rifles in the Army's inventory to the CMP, the CMP receives no Federal funding.

No license required, just pass the CMP eligibility requirements.
