Static Range Update
New 4’x4′ static range targets have been fully installed! Please note that all targets have been covered with a heavy duty tarp to protect them from the sun and weather. These tarps are easy to flip back out of the way before shooting at the targets. Members are asked to ensure the tarps are set
