"When some of my friends have asked me anxiously about their boys, whether they should let them hunt, I have answered, yes - remembering that it was one of the best parts of my education - make them hunters."

Henry David Thoreau, 1854


“A citizen who shirks his duty to contribute to the security of his community is little better than the criminal who threatens it.” - Robert Boatman

The Annual Night Shoot at Rifle Sportsmen's Club

Shooters:

The Annual Night Shoot at Rifle Sportsmen's Club is scheduled for this Saturday , November 21st.

Here's some vital stuff to know:
There will be three stages plus the infamous "House of Death."
Cost is $20.00.
Sign-ups start at 5:30 pm; match begins at 6:00 pm with a safety meeting.
There will be NO classifier.
Bring a concealment garment and dress appropriately. It will probably be cold!
There will be a special "open" class for those who want to use laser or gun mounted lights. Be advised holstered pistols with lights attached prior to the stage(s) will not be allowed. In other words, you will be required to mount the lights after drawing your weapon. Obviously, special safety considerations will apply and you will be instructed as to procedures at the safety meeting.
And, an important special notice:

Inexperienced and/or non-IDPA shooters are encouraged to NOT attend this shoot! Regular attendees are also encouraged to NOT invite inexperienced or non-IDPA shooter. These will be very challenging stages, and all the more so because they will be shot at night.

If you have any questions about lights, lasers or those who will be allowed to participate in the Night Shoot, please contact Match Director Terry Veldboom immediately. His phone number is (970) 379-0237. You can email Terry at terob3@sopris.net.
