I am applying for a surplus M1 Garand, and on the application form there is a space for my ID number. I do not, as yet, have such a number, so I ask you, is it a requirement, and if it is, how do I get such a number?

This is something new.  When you place your next order, our software system will assign you a number that will remain yours for the life of the CMP.  It will be annotated at the top of the shipping document you receive with your next rifle or parts order.  It will help to speed up future orders.  Just leave the space blank on the application until you are assigned one.
