Concealed Carry Intro & Shotgun 101

Uncategorized

We have two training sessions coming up!  If interested contact the Chief Instructor to sign up at [email protected].

April 13th – Shotgun 101 – Donation $40/person. This will be a 6-8 hour class running from 9am to 4pm.  We will cover introduction to shotgun shooting.  This is a primer to be used before taking any advanced training such as Tap 101 or Skeet 101 unless someone is already proficient with a shotgun.  We will cover safety, fit and shotgun fundamentals. We will be shooting straight away targets and then crossing.  Individuals may borrow club shotguns but will need to provide their own ammunition.  The club shotguns will require 20 gauge 2-3/4″ shells. To sign up contact the Chief Instructor first.  After approval you will be asked to donate.  Participants should bring:

  • 4 boxes of shells (7.5 or 8 shot) for their shotgun
  • Shotgun unless they are borrowing one from the club
  • Ear plugs are best for shotgun shooting.  Ear muffs tend to interfere with the stock
  • Safety glasses
  • Dress appropriately for the weather
  • Lunch and something to drink
  • Consideration for insect repellant and sunscreen should be given.
  • Recommend a hat
  • Women should consider wearing a sports bra or something without any buckles on the strap

 

April 20th – Concealed Carry Intro – Donation $20/person.  This will be a 4 hour class running from 1pm to 5pm.  We will cover gear and cover garments and then teach drawing from concealment, emergency reloads and clearing malfunctions.  To sign up contact the Chief Instructor first.  After approval you will be asked to donate.  You will need to bring:

  • OWB/IWB or appendix holster (No sherpa style)
  • Gun belt
  • Mag pouch
  • 2 magazines
  • Cover garment (open or closed front)
  • Eyes and ears

 

 

 

Semi-annual NSSA registered skeet shooting competition

NSSA Skeet / Service Hours Opportunity

The semi-annual NSSA registered skeet shooting competition will be held at the Airfield Shooting Club on 16-18 March. The competition will have four (4) categories (guns):  12 Ga, 20 Ga, 28 Ga, .410 bore, and Doubles.

There will be a cash prize for first place in each category.

The cost is $30 per gun. (This is an increase from past years due to cost of clay targets)

In order to participate you please notify intent to shoot (day, gun, etc.) and be a member of NSSA.  Walkups are subject to waiting and possibly shifting to Sunday or Monday.

On the day of the shoot you will need:

1.    Cash or check for $30 for each gun. Checks are to be payable to Airfield Shooting Club

2.    NSSA membership card. You may join the NSSA at the shoot, the yearly membership is $30.00

3.    Classification Sheet.

The competition will allow mixed guns each day so you may compete on any of the 3 days.  Once we have all shooters sending their preferences, a draft schedule will be made available to all.

Ties for Gun Championships will be decided by long runs from the front or back whichever is longer.

Email day(s), gun(s), NSSA number and address to:

[email protected]

Additionally, if anyone needs to get their service hours in, I will be asking for help refereeing, scoring and trapping.  Let me know which days (Saturday and/or Sunday) you can work.  Past volunteers or experienced skeet shooters preferred.

Thanks

We are still having the work party this Saturday to build frames and pin tables. If you need your service hours this will be a good chance to get them. Screw guns, a table saw and chop saws are what we need. Also general hand tools will be needed. If the weather holds old we also hope to get the sidewalk and doors on the building cleaned.

Critical Carry Skills – June 1-2, 2024

Uncategorized

ASC is hosting Dave Jenkins form Rochester Personal Defense on June 1-2, 2024 to conduct a Critical Carry skills course.  I have taken this class from Dave several years ago and was very impressed with it and recommend it.  This is for the person that has good gun handling skills, but does not have to be an IDPA champion.  This course is designed to teach you what you need to know for concealed carry.  This course will be $450 for member and $500 for non-members. For more detail please visit our new Training Page under “Club Programs“.

In response to the member survey, I have established a training page that lists upcoming training events to give members as much notice as possible.  I will try to keep this updated.

Respectfully,

Scott Sampson
Chief Instructor
