** = done online here!

Please provide your client number at the time of online submission. Failure to send or provide information
will result in delay of shipment.

naturalization, or voter registration card is acceptable.

2. Be at least 18 years of age. You must provide proof (If you haven't already) of age. Usually proof of citizenship also provides proof of age.
In those cases where it may not, a driver’s license is sufficient.

3. Be a member of a club or state association affiliated with the CMP. You must provide (If you haven't already) a copy of your
current membership card or other proof. This requirement cannot be waived. NRA membership, military, law enforcement
or age status do not qualify as club membership. The CMP currently has over 1,400 affiliated clubs and an affiliated state
association in each state. The Garand Collector’s Association is also an affiliated organization. Membership in many of
these organizations costs $20 or less annually. If you have any difficulty in finding an affiliated club, please contact the
CMP at 419-635-2141 or check the club listings on www.odcmp.com.

Instructor or Coach status will satisfy this requirement. This requirement is waived if your proof (If you haven't already) of age shows you to be at
least 60 years of age. This requirement does not apply to drill rifles.

authorizes the CMP to initiate the NICS check and authorizes the FBI to inform the CMP of the result. IMPORTANT: If
your State or locality requires you to first obtain a license, permit or Firearm Owner ID card in order to possess or receive a
rifle, you must e nclose a photocopy of your license, permit or card with this application.
