Vintage Military Rifle/Pistol is a fun way to use those military collectibles in a competition environment. Rifles and pistols for the match should have been designed/issued before 1961 and were general issue to troops.
Rifles must be in as-issued configuration and caliber, no bedding or match parts, original barrel contours and original style non match sights.
Pistols must be as close to as-issued configuration with fixed or tangent sights only. Tokarevs with import required safeties on frame or slide are fine. Makarovs, CZ-70's, CZ-82's, and standard M9 style pistols are also allowed. 1911A1 pistols should meet the following criteria: 5" barrel/slide, non adjustable triggers, fixed sights, std GI hammer, GI thumb and GI grip safety.
Rifle Targets are set at 200 yards. We shoot 10 rounds for record in each position including slow fire prone, rapid fire prone, rapd fire sitting, and slow fire standing. Rapid fire stages require a reload, and slings may be used for all positions except standing. The 1950's era 5V target is used. Sign up at 8:30, shoot at 9 on the 200/300 bigbore range. Round count is 40 shots plus 2 optional sighters before shooting for score in prone only.
After the rifle match is completed we shoot the vintage pistol match. Course of fire will include both left and right hand shooting, both two handed and one handed at 7, 14 and 21 yards. Round count is 36 shots. There are no reloads during stages, so only one magazine is needed if shooting a semi-auto. The police PPC B-27 target is used. No holster is required, all shooting starts from the low ready position. You do need a case or holster that can cover the pistol when moving to and from the line.
Matches are held at a private club open to members and their guests.
