CMP Air Rifle Silhouette
The CMP list Air Rifle Silhouette as a supported program on their Website. Are any of the active air rifle Silhouette clubs running under the CMP program? Does anyone have experience with dealing with the CMP as it relates to Air Rifle Silhouette? Do they use NRA rules and standards or have their own? If no one has gone down this road I’m going to give some exploration effort.

Re: CMP Air Rifle Silhouette
I’ve never been interested in another NRA Silhouette discipline due to the Inattention they provide to the existing ones.
If CMP was to start running matches I’d be interested.
They have the manpower,knowledge on how to make programs work,and a cash flow.They are timely on score reporting and are committed to the Shooting Sports.
Might be a small start,and hopefully they take over all silhouette.

Re: CMP Air Rifle Silhouette
NASSA was built in a way that if the community at large decided to abandon the NRA as the sanctioning body for our sport, it would be ready to pick up the mantle.
Rather than looking at what the CMP could do, maybe putting your focus and energies into what NASSA is doing would be more beneficial to where we want to go as a sport.
Just my two cents.

This is the kind of thinking that hurts the sport.
One sanctioning body with no competitor in the market place is a dictator and quickly begins to think they can do anything they want no matter how crazy it is because you either shoot with them or you don't shoot.
When there are multiple sanctioning bodies competing for members, matches, ranges and competitors, the sanctioning bodies tend to try harder and provide the services they promise to provide.
It is the same when government allows only one company to produce a product you need to buy.
You are at the mercy of that one company.
You have to pay any price that company demands for that product no matter how ridiculous the price.
You have to wait months or years for your order to be filled and your item shipped.
You cannot complain about the price, services or waiting time or your order will be cancelled.
You have to be nice and act like the company is the greatest or your order will be cancelled even though the company is incompetent.
Competition breeds success even when it concerns sanctioning bodies for sports.
