Back by popular demand!

This course specifically focuses on the Battle Rifle era of the 1950’s to the early 1990’s- coupled with period correct, pre-plastic semi automatic pistols. Space guns need not apply, sonny!

Battle Rifles in .308 from any period are appropriate, whether it be an M1A or something exotic like a G3 or FAL. For pistols, we really prefer you bring God’s Gun (1911 Duh) in .45 ACP, worn in a leather holster. Obviously we will be wearing Rhodie short shorts and boots the entire time because it’s our own Summer of Love. 

This will be another fun 3 days of shooting rifles from up close to about 500 yards, with pistols integrated into the the course.

Students should plan on shooting roughly 400 rounds of rifle ammunition and 200 rounds of pistol ammunition, but feel free to bring more if you want to shoot more. 

We will once again smoke cigars and have a BBQ dinner on the second night. 

*Non-period correct requests regarding firearms will be dealt with on a case-by-case basis. If you are not sure if you have the appropriate gear, ask. We are doing our best to keep the gear accurate and focused. If you have a wheel gun, Hi-Power, or something else freaky- the answer is yes. If you have an AK and a Glock with a dot, probably rethink attending this.
