The Firearms Committee of Monadnock Rod & Gun Club

The Firearms Committee:

The Firearms Committee maintains a 100 yard firearms range, suitable for target practice and sighting-in. It currently uses a fixed target line and moveable firing line, but plans are on the move this year to create a fixed firing line with target stations at 11, 25, 50, 75 and 100 yards.

More shooting activities are planned for this year. Starting in Spring, our weekly Wednesday evening .22 shoots begin and run through late Fall. These are open to the public, with youth and adult divisions competing for monthly & club championships. The entry fee is $6 per week. Prizes are awarded at our monthly "Firearms Feed: Bullets & Barbecue". Entry fees fund the prizes, BBQ, and range improvements. We plan to add events for pistol, rifle, and shotgun, too.

We also plan more instructional events in firearms & marksmanship. We hope to offer NRA courses in Firearms Safety in the Home, Basic Rifle, Basic Pistol, Basic Shotgun and Personal Protection and an NMLRA course in Basic Muzzleloading. We will administer the NRA Marksmanship Qualification program with weekly courses of fire that take shooters from beginning skill levels (Pro-Marksman, Marksman), through intermediate levels (Sharpshooter, Expert) all the way up to a nationally recognized skill level - Distinguished Expert.

Boy Scouts of America-sanctioned Rifle, Shotgun and Muzzleloader Merit Badge instruction is also available, from instructors certified by the NRA and registered with the Daniel Webster Council, BSA.

We recently affiliated with the Civilian Marksmanship Program. This program is just underway at our club, but there will be more info here soon. General information is available at the CMP website.

The Hunter Safety Education courses required for the NH hunting License are conducted here by the official Hunter Safety Instructional Team sponsored by the NH Department of Fish and Game.

A detailed Range Safety Plan is in review and will be posted to this site soon.
