Action Pistol Shooting Information Meetings

The club invites you to the action pistol shooting event(s). Action pistol is one of the most popular competitive handgun events. It’s a fun, fast-paced and challenging game in its own right.

Come to the March 6th or April 3rd club meeting to meet the event officials, ask questions, or address any concerns of items you may be interested in. The action pistol events start in May.

Action pistol takes you beyond standing at the range shooting stationary targets. It involves drawing from a holster, sequentially shooting at multiple targets, moving targets, magazine/cylinder changes, walking, and many more different techniques, which you simply don’t get to work on while standing stationary at the range shooting at stationary targets. It’s average people having good safe fun.

See video below for additional information about what to expect.
