The 3 Man 3 Gun Championship Event 2012 is a two match event. The first match on May 20 will be at the Topton Fish and Game association (same place as the past two years), and the second and final event will be held on July 14th and 15th at the Peacemaker Training center in West Virginia. Both matches will be 6-7 stages and will feature rolling thunder style stages as well as relay style stages just like the past matches.

If your company is interested in sponsoring this event please message me here on AR15.com and I will provide you details.

We have some good things in the works with a big title sponsor jumping in who will be announced shortly after SHOT putting up the first place prize money AND rifles. If your company is interested in sponsoring this event, please email me via this site for the sponsor form.

This event has only gotten bigger and better with each passing year, the 2012 event promises to be the best yet.

We will have a professional photographer on hand at both matches to provide each team member with a "Team Photograph" in front of a tastefully done match banner as well as a few other unique twists. If your on the east coast and miss this event, your going to regret it. So grab two buddies, block off the two dates and get ready to have some fun in PA and WV over the summer.

More coming soon .

Correct, the one and only. Colt Mfg is the title sponsor and is putting up prize money and guns on the table.

If you live on the east coast and miss this two match series, your missing out, thats all there is to it.

Per the match director over on enos

"It is hard to give a round count without knowing what gun you are shooting on what stages. I would bring 150 of rifle and pistol each. Plus about 100 shot each and maybe 30 slugs for the team. This will be plenty but you don't want to run short. "

To me that means

150 rifle
150 pistol
100 birdshot
10 slugs

Per person.

I'll be there. Last year one of my teammates got us DQ'd.

He's not on the team this year.

Well, despite having major issues on one stage (teammate's barrel nut came loose) we pulled off a top 5 finish at the Topton match.

Can't wait for the next one.

I should be done with the video in the next couple days.
