Dan Ide and others - I have been doing some homework and have come up with a listing of "open" competitions that cater for a "veteran or Master" age category. There is a veterans only tournament at Plzen in the Czech Republic, as well as tournaments in Austria, Denmark and Sweden. Since it appears that the USA Master Games do not cater for 10M compeition, if there are any state or regional competitions that do have veteran/Master pistol and rifle competitions, on the list.
Some of the ones currently listed have simply a 45+ years class, while at least one has two classes (Master1 & Master2). I am sure that there must be others, so if anyone can pass on information, it would be a great help.
I have included a link to the spreadsheet listing these events.

While I would like to organize a yearly 45+ PCL "SHOOT-off" somewhere for 2017/2018, the first order of business is to encourage ANY pistol shooter, of any age, to dust off that pistol and get into the action. While we have a good core group at the moment, it would be great to get the number of active competitors up over 100. Competing with the PCL has to be the best deal in town, as it is totally FREE. All you need is a pistol, time, persistence, and a computer with an internet connection. For those who do not like/use Facebook, there is an easy answer - you can email me your competiton shot cards as photo attachments. Here is the Facebook llink. Once there, look for the "REGISTRATION THREAD" page. Alternatively, send me an email to "
