I have been exchanging email with Chris Seidler who asked me to promote a rifle clinic in Nampa Idaho which Revere’s Riders is putting on. He is going to be promoting Boomershoot as the two events complement each other.
Here are the details of the AR event:
NRA America’s Rifle Challenge Clinic
June 24-25, Nampa ID Rifle Club Outdoor Range
Attendees will learn modern defensive shooting skills on the AR platform at an NRA America’s Rifle Challenge clinic. Woven throughout the event we will address elements of a personal security strategy as well as historical vignettes illustrating the use of the short range marksmanship in American history. Attendees will experience shooting in multiple firing positions at varying distances.
Firing in this course will be within 100 yards with a focus on the close quarters environment from 7 to 50 yards. An AR-15 type modern sporting rifle is ideal, but any semiautomatic magazine fed rifle is suitable.
Required equipment: Appropriate carbine, 400 rounds of ammunition, at least 2 and preferably 6 magazines, two point rifle sling.
