Action Shooting

From roughly May to September, the Action Shooting group practices tactical shooting skills in an environment that stresses safe handling and operation of a handgun, and is low pressure so all participants have some fun while learning valuable skills. We require strict adherence to all the safety rules common to IDPA, USPSA & ASI.

Equipment: Bring what you want to shoot! You will need:

  • a solid holster (strong side OWB) that is a proper fit for the gun you bring (kydex recommended),
  • a solid belt,
  • belt mounted mag/speedloader carriers for 3 mags/speedloaders,
  • proper eye and ear protection (think about using an amplified headset that will allow you to hear range commands),
  • enough ammo for the gun you bring
  • a safe and positive attitude!
