PISTOL MATCH

We have substituted a pistol match for our July 15 match, and it follows the CMP Military & Police Pistol Match rules. However, if your pistol does not meet those requirements, we have created an OUTLAW class that allows any pistol you may have. Registration fees are the same as for our regular matches.
