About this Event

Since 2015, The Nevada Veterans Alumni Chapter has hosted this event to showcase the exciting, challenging, and fun world of competitive shooting sports in partnership with the Western Nevada Pistol League.

The cost to participate will be $10 and paid on the day of the event to the range hosts, Western Nevada Pistol League. Please bring cash.

This year, the format will be updated with new and challenging courses that will give our competitors a feel for what it is like to participate in Action Pistol, Steel Challege, and USPSA matches.

Shooters of all experience levels are welcome and encouraged to attend to put their skills to the test under the direction of experienced Range Safety staff that will provide a high quality event experience. This year will be an individual event (NO TEAMS).

You will need at least 150 rounds for the event. Pistol matches are listed below. For questions, please contact [email protected].

Slide mounted optic required (frame mounted not permitted). The ideal pistol for this division would be a service pistol used by law enforcement/military with limited modification. Magwells and ports are permitted (Staccato XC, Specter Comps, etc.) but we are trying to avoid a fully modified competition race gun. If you have questions on your specific firearm, reach out and we can discuss them.
