CMP North Store Celebrates Appreciation Day and Open House on 2 October

By Steve Cooper, CMP Writer


CAMP PERRY, OHIO – Plan to join us at the CMP North store for our Customer Appreciation Day and Open House with complimentary coffee and donuts in the morning and hot dogs and chips in the afternoon on Saturday, 2 October. The store opens at 8:30 a.m. and closes at 4 p.m.

“We just want to say ‘thank you’ to our current customers and say ‘hello’ to new customers who will get an opportunity to see our showroom and shop our great selection of products,” said Mike Conrad, CMP North store manager.

 

The CMP North Store has over 400 government surplus rifles on display. Customers can browse through the selections on display and hand pick the rifle they would like to purchase.



In addition to food and refreshments, while they last, CMP will give out free summer event T-shirts to the first 50 visitors to the store. Guests may also take home free CMP giveaways while they last, Conrad said.

The CMP North store recently reopened following an inventory organization period following the 2010 National Matches. The store sells surplus M1 Garand rifles to qualified buyers along with ammunition, books, clothing, memorabilia and a limited supply of .22 caliber rifles, air rifles and accessories.

The store is one of three sales outlets for CMP which also operates a store in Anniston, Alabama and an E- store and ongoing Internet auction which can be found at www.thecmp.org

The CMP Stores have Armorers that will help customers inspect the rifles they have picked out and assist customers with their purchase.



Those interested in purchasing a rifle from the CMP need to supply proof of U.S. citizenship, proof of marksmanship training, membership in a CMP-affiliated club and applicants must clear a Federal background check. For a list of CMP-affiliated clubs and more information about the CMP and its sales program, log onto www.odcmp.com
