Having been a member of the Junior NRA during the late '50's where I achieved the rating of Sharpshooter 6th Bar, I am honestly able to state that I was pleasantly surprised and very pleased to see that you're still actively pursuing today's youth to continue the interest of sport shooting (which I still love).  Thank you and warm regards.

Thank you for a great news letter.

I shot high expert in the Marine Corps in the 60's with the venerable Garand and hope someday to own one again. I like reading TFS and their informative articles. Thanks for the excellent site.
Sincerely, Fred C.
I attended the Houston Gun Collectors January Show, and truthfully, the CMP display was the high point of the show for me. I'm still trying to decide about buying a Greek Collector Grade M-1 rifle (I have too many Garands already), but when all is said and done, I think the decision to take the CMP to such major gun shows is a real winner.

Great website! I especially like the story about what you did for the 200th Red Horse Flight. I saw some of their previous work while in the Middle East last year.

Army Competitions Keep Soldiers’ Skills Sharp

By Dale Miles, CMP Writer


The month of March saw the U.S. Army holding its annual Small Arms Championships as well as their Long-Range Championships at Ft. Benning , Georgia .  The 2005 All-Army Rifle and Pistol Championships were hosted by the U. S. Army Marksmanship Unit.  Through the competitions, Army soldiers sharpened their own skills and learned new ones that they will in turn teach to other soldiers in their units…skills that could save lives in combat.  The CMP would like to congratulate all the winners of these exciting matches.  For complete information about the All-Army Long-Range Championships and Small Arms Championships click below:
