    Before clause (1), the words ``The functions of the Civilian 
Marksmanship Program are'' are added because of the reorganization of 
the revised chapter.
    In clause (3), the word ``matches'' is omitted as included in 
``competitions''.
    In clause (4), the words ``to secure and account for'' are 
substituted for ``The provision of security and accountability for'' for 
clarity and to eliminate unnecessary words. The words ``for which the 
corporation is responsible'' are substituted for ``under the custody and 
control of the Corporation'' for clarity and for consistency with 
section 40731(b) of this title related to firearms that are not under 
the direct custody and control of the corporation because they have been 
issued or loaned.
    In clause (5), the words ``ammunition, repair parts, and other 
supplies'' are substituted for ``ammunition, supplies, and appliances'' 
for consistency in the revised title.
    In clause (6), the words ``supplies and services'' are substituted 
for ``supplies, appliances, clerical services, other related services, 
and labor'' to eliminate unnecessary words.
