The Firearms Committee of Monadnock Rod & Gun Club

The Firearms Committee maintains a 200 yard hi-power firearms range, suitable for target practice, sighting-in, and shooting events along with a parallel 50 yard pistol and small rifle range. Both ranges can be accessed under an 80 foot long by 10 foot wide covered shooting shed.

The range is open Monday through Saturday from 9AM till dusk, and Sunday from 12PM noon till dusk three-hundred sixty-five days per year.

More shooting activities are planned for this year. Starting in Spring, our weekly Wednesday evening .22 shoots begin and run through the end of the Summer. These are open to the public, with youth and adult divisions competing for overall & Club championships. The entry fee is $5 per week. Prizes are awarded at the season ending "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.
