News:

Match scores for the August local RCPS match are posted on the score page. We had a good turnout for pocket pistol stages in August.

The Arab Practical Shooting Club has made some improvements to the range area. A load of dirt was brought in and laid in the swamp area and the area was mostly leveled across the range area. Special thanks to Steve for making it happen.

Upcoming Events:

Next local match will be held Saturday September 13, 2008 at the Arab Range. There will be 5 stages of pistol and also an optional shotgun/rifle side match. The side match will include 1 shotgun only stage, 1 rifle only stage, and 1 shotgun and rifle combined stage. The shotgun/rifle stage will require 6 slugs minimum. Shot and rifle rounds as needed.
