General Information: The Garand, Springfield, Vintage Rifle, & Modern Military matches were developed by the Civilian Marksmanship Program for competitors to compete with “as-issued” U.S. M1 Garand, M1903, M1917, M1A, & AR-15 rifles. However, any safe functional rifle can be used. National Match modified rifles will be classified as “unlimited”. This course of fire is designed so that both new and experienced shooters can compete.
