Getting started in NC

I have a 14 yr old that's interested in competition air rifle, M16, or small firearms. What is the best way to get started? Are there competition trainers available around Raleigh, NC?


Thank you,

Kelly

Kelly,

Your first best bet would be to contact your State CMP director ... usually they have lots of info on clubs across the state and can give you info on all types of competitions in your area:
