Who we are
Rocket City Practical Shooters are Northern Alabama's practical pistol
shooting club affiliated with the United States
Practical Shooting Association (USPSA). We usually shoot a 5 course
pistol match with at least one of them a classifier for local monthly matches.
Ladies and children with safe gun handling skills are welcome to participate.
Our dedicated team of practical shooters will provide coaching and mentoring for
all new shooters. This is and can be a family sport.
Schedule:
Matches are held on every second Saturday of each month. We shoot every month
of the year...summer through winter, rain or shine. One match in the past 2
years was cancelled due to ice conditions.

News:
Match scores for the November local RCPS match are posted on the score page.
We had 12 shooters on 5 stages of pistol and 8 shooting the rifle side match.
Really great weather too. The rifle side match was scored using the "San Angelo"
method from the USPSA Multi-gun rulebook.
Upcoming Events:
Next local match will be held Saturday December 13, 2008 at the Arab
Range. There will be 5 or 6 stages of pistol of approximately 100-120 rounds. There
will be no side matches due to short daylight.
