Manatee 3 Gun

Manatee 3 Gun

What is 3 Gun? (Rifle, Shotgun and Pistol)

We used a blended approach of the major organization’s rules. As we collect club fees we try to add new and different equipment to help make the matches fun.

  • Matches are designed, setup and run by NRA Range Safety Officers.

  • Our matches are very “new 3 gunner” friendly.

  • We use at least 4 or 5 different ranges during the match so a shooting cart or wagon is helpful to transport all your weapons and equipment.

  • Sign in and mandatory safety briefing @ 600-yd range, and moves between Area 51 range, 600-yd range and Cowboy Action bays during event.

  • For events that occur on the 5th Saturday of a given month, an additional sniper stage is conducted on the 600-yd range.

  • Chamber flags are required for all rifles and shotguns. Reloads are allowed as long as they are safe.
