  • International Military Cartridge Rifles and Bayonets
    INTERNATIONAL MILITARY CARTRIDGE RIFLES AND BAYONETS The following table lists the most common international military rifles, their chambering, along with the most common bayonet types used with each. This list is not exhaustive, but is intended as a quick reference that covers the types most commonly encountered by today’s collectors. A Note Regarding Nomenclature: The blade configuration is listed, in parentheses, following the type. There is no precise dividing line between what blade length constitutes a knife bayonet vs. a sword bayonet. Blades 10-inches or shorter are typically considered knife bayonets. Blades over 12-inches are typically considered sword bayonets. Within the 10-12 inch range, terms are not consistently applied. For purposes of this chart, I have designated any blade over 12 inches as a sword bayonet.

    NLU # 776 $3.00 CMP 02/05/15 COMPETITION RULES FOR SERVICE RIFLE AND PISTOL 19th Edition—2015 These Rules govern all CMP sponsored and sanctioned Matches for Service Rifle, Service Pistol and .22 Rimfire Pistol events, including National Trophy Rifle and Pistol Matches, Excellence-In-Competition (EIC) Matches, and other CMP-sanctioned competitions © 2015, Civilian Marksmanship Program Effective date 1 January 2015 This edition supersedes the 18th 2014 Edition and will remain in effect through the 2015 competition year. About the CMP and CPRPFS A 1996 Act of Congress established the Corporation for the Promotion of Rifle Practice and Firearms Safety, Inc. (CPRPFS) to conduct the Civilian Marksmanship Program that was formerly administered by the U. S. Army Office of the Director of Civilian Marksmanship (ODCM). The CPRPFS is a federally chartered, tax- exempt, not-for-profit 501 (c) (3) corporation that derives its mission from public law (Title 36 USC, §40701-40733). The CMP promotes firearms safety training and rifle practice for qualified U.S. citizens with a special emphasis on youth. The CMP delivers its programs through a network of affiliated shooting clubs and associations, through CMP-trained and certified Master Instructors and through cooperative agreements with national shooting sports and youth-serving organizations. Federal legislation enacted in 1903 by the U.S. Congress and President Theodore Roosevelt created the National Board for the Promotion of Rifle Practice to foster improved marksmanship among military personnel and civilians. The original CMP purpose was to provide U. S. citizens with opportunities for rifle marksmanship practice and competition so they would be skilled marksmen if later called to serve in the Armed Services.

    KEEPING IT IN THE TEN RING INTRODUCTION: The material contained herein is a condensed compilation taken from the Civilian Marksmanship Program Website. This material is the tried and proven techniques used by the USAMU team members. These techniques are for the use of the experienced as well as the inexperienced shooters. This should only be used as a guide to the advantage of the shooter for the development of good shooting habits and as a reminder of the basic principles of competitive rifle shooting. This guidance is by no means the end all when it comes to the final say of rifle shooting techniques. We as competitors should constantly strive for better and more consistent execution of the fundamentals’ when it comes to competitive rifle shooting. I. Standing and Trigger Control By SGT Brandon Green, USAMU We’ve all been there—on the two hundred yard line and in our three-minute prep period. As you stand there looking through your sights, you just can’t seem to make them stay in the center of your target or even close for that matter. You know that your three minutes are running out quickly, so what are you going to do? This is the time when a lot of shooters start to come unraveled. We all know that nothing I tell you here will make you stand up there and shoot center shots all day, but maybe I can bring a few things to light that will help you control the movement and work through times like this. On days when your standing just doesn’t seem to settle, we need to be able to quickly evaluate and, if necessary, rebuild our position to help control the movement.
