Mike Doy, Springfield Armory, witnessed the decline of classic M1 Garand rifles and M1A rifles after they were removed from the high-powered competition firing lines. “I wanted to get those M1A rifles from safes and closets back onto the field. 11 years ago, I advocated the idea of having an M1A-specific match at Camp Perry. The match at Camp Perry has some of the highest pay-outs. It was attended by over 600 competitors and spectators the first year. Springfield Armory has donated more than $25,000 in cash and prizes over the years, including a $2,000 cash prize to the overall winner.
