Ranges near Albuquerque NM

I recently moved to Albuquerque NM, and would like to find a range where I can practice 10m Air rifle indoors and 50m .22 range. Anyone know of any?

USASNC

I am competing for the first time in Air rifle, and have some questions.

Does Ft. Benning have compressed air that competitors can use?

What time does check-in start on friday?

Do I have to have a weapons disclosure form for an air rifle?

Thanks,

Thanks to everyone for the advise. I added a little more to my risers and had someone look at my position and discovered that I was stretching my neck toward the target. Which was creating the issue with my glasses touching my sights. Now I have moved my head back and eliminated all the issues and p...

I am not sure Colin, I have never seen anyone do it. Do you know how to do it?

That would be the best option if it is possible.

I do use an ultra short adjustable iris. I have the butt plate all the way in the stock because I have short arms and have issues reaching the trigger otherwise. Another option is to put the sight in front of the loading port and have an extender back to where it needs to be but I think that might b...

Walther Rear Sight Issue

I have an LG300XT Anatomic, and I am having issues being able to move my rear sight far enough forward in order not to hit my glasses. I have either decided to cut the loading lever to go under the sight knob or try to move the sight knob to the other side of the sight. Does anyone know if it is pos...

If you are talking about the USA Shooting 4H Passport program, then no one in the club needs to be a member of USAS. You or a club leader just need to call them 719-866-4743, and just tell them how many of each pin and number of books and how you want to pay. My club started the program a couple yea...

More Pictures

No heel rest (on the front or side of the grip)
material does not give me increased grip
the height of the grip is the same

Air Rifle Grip Modification

I currently shoot a Walther Anatomic and have found the grip does not fit my hand, so I made one. It fits my hand much better but I am not sure if it would be legal for USAS and ISSF matches. Here is a picture of both grips.

Do you think it would be a legal grip?

Thanks for any help,

you can only go once per discipline as a member of a team or individual. Because they give individual awards and they don't want the same person winning 2+yrs.

I bought one from Champions Choice not long ago. when I received it the order form said Discontinued, so you should check with them and see if they have any left. It was not the exact same as the one that came with my Walther. Mine had LG300XT on one side and Walther on the other cut out of the tube...

If the bolt knob screws off then it should fit. I had a 1803 that I put a new knob on then when I got my new 2213 I traded the knobs. If it hasn't been off in a while then you might have to have a gunsmith take it off if you don't want it damaged.

I have had one for a year and love it. It is lighter than an Anschutz. I am a smaller shooter and I prefer a butt heavy rifle so I added weight to the cheek piece rods. It is easy to add weight to ether end to make the rifle fit you. There are only three problems that I have found. 1. With an up lea...

I though that the Gehmann sling my help prevent this, but it may have been a position issue. Has anybody els...

New Sling

I am thinking of buying a new sling, and am currently using an old Anschutz leather sling. I am thinking of getting a Gehmann Micro-adjustable Artificial sling. Is it worth the money or should I just get another leather sling?

Thanks for any help,

One more Question:

Does the trigger on the NRA 3-P match have to be 3lbs? It is not mentioned in the 4-H rules and I can't tell if the NRA rule 3.1 or 3.2 is used?


Thanks for any help
