Shooters,

We still have slots open for Sundays match. 7 stages, an AR to be raffled off, more details on our website www.blackwateripsc.com, where you can also register on line. Go to matches and take a look for more information. You cannot search for this site, you have to type it in the web address box. If you could pass this along to your friends and email lists, I am certain a good time will be had, and the
