Friends,

Below please find the link for our Saturday, February 25th World War Two Practical Rifle Match. Our matches typically sellout in under 15 minutes so please be ready to go when the link opens. Our range is located at 251 Stoneyford Road Holland PA in Bucks County.

This month's match will be held on our LONG RANGE.  All targets will be between 15 and 200 yards.  As is tradition for our February match, we will be featuring firearms used during World War Two.  This includes bolt action rifles, magazine fed rifles and enbloc clip fed rifles.  We ask that those using bolt action rifles use stripper clips to speed reloading.  Please note that we are excluding the SKS from this match.  All firearms must be able to fire in semi-auto mode.  No full auto fire will be permitted.  We will be enjoying a GI- era mess after the match in our clubhouse so bring your appetite.  

We open the below Registration Link promptly at 9:00am on the 10th of the month.

Things to think about:

We shoot in rain, sleet, snow, and heat. Please be sure to dress for conditions. You will shoot in standing, knelling and prone positions. That means you may get wet or dirty. Please wear appropriate foot gear. We strongly suggest a good boot. No open toe shoes are permitted. Please note that due to a recent the recent ATF clarification on the use of SIG brace style attachments, we can no longer permit the use of a pistol with a SIG style brace at our match unless it is legally registered as a short barreled rifle. You will need to have a copy of your Form 1, 3, or 4.

Lastly, you will need to be signed in with your target posted by no later than 0830hrs on Match Day. Once we start the Match Safety briefing, we can not accommodate you. So please be sure to be on time.

This may seem like a dumb question, so I apologize in advance. Are spectators/prospective future competitors allowed to cone watch?

I've never attempted to compete in a match of any sort... certainly seems like a fun thing to do, but there certainly is a relutance to try something new. Having no experience with any sort of competitive shooting I'm totally clueless to mostly everything about it.

Thanks all.

Sure thing.  This is a fun match and shot with WW2 period firearms.  Our standard matches are slightly different but you will get a good idea of our program.  We'll just need you to have eye/ear protection and be at the safety brief that starts at 0830hrs.  You will also need to sign our liability waiver.
