Notice for M1 for Vet’s Benefit Match

June 10 ^th

As an added incentive for participants in the M1 for Vets Benefit Match we will be awarding a Criterion M1 barrel to the match winner. In addition, since this match is CMP sanctioned, achievement pins will be awarded for CMP published cut scores. All participants will be given certificates of attendance.

Firing will begin at 10am sharp for the first relay. Please be there by 9:30 to help set up target frames and register if you are planning on firing the first relay. Trigger weighing will also be required prior to the match for M1 rifles.

If you don’t have an M1, no problem, any rifle will be allowed in an out of competition class and re-entries will be allowed for both classes. Out of competition class will not be eligible for prizes or achievement pins, but you can share if the fun.

Please see the match bulletin on the club web page for course of fire information.

Following the match, ALGC will hold a special benefit dinner for participants, friends and family. There will be a nice door prize offered and opportunities to win many other prizes including a Ruger 10/22 rifle.

M1 for Vets is a charity started during the Iraq war to help wounded combat veterans return to lives that are as normal as possible. Many of the veterans are multiple amputees, who look forward to participating with their peers in events such as National and Regional rifle competitions. M1 for Vets provides transportation to and from matches, housing, instruction and M1 rifles for qualifying Vets.

Last year, ALGC was able to donate $1450 to the program from the proceeds from the match and dinner. Lets all pull together and try to double that amount this year and make our club a leading supporter of this fine organization.

Thank you,

John Hill
