    MPSA will be having a USPSA match this Saturday, February 3rd, at the Vinegar Bend range. We will be shooting 6 stages including one classifier. If you are going to shoot the match, please register ahead of time using the following link.

    Match Start Time:



    It is a must to get to the range on time so that we can get setup and start on time. Everyone should be signed in by 9:15am so that I can get the squadding done and we can have a shooters meeting at 9:20am – 9:25am. Stages should be setup and ready by 9:20 as well. If we all do our part to get to the range a bit earlier then we can get done shooting at a decent time.



    Who can come: EVERYONE



    Match Fees: $10 for MPSA members, $20 for Guest and $5 for Juniors. If this is your first match as a competitive shooter your match is FREE.



    What do I need to shoot an USPSA match? Eye and Ear Protection (safety glasses and ear muffs or ear plugs) Any brand of Handgun with a caliber larger than .38/9mm. USPSA divisions encompass 9mm, .38 cal, .40 cal and .45 cal. You will need a holster and at least 2 magazines and pouches. Our matches normally consist of 5 stages with 25 to 30 rounds each so having additional magazines is a plus. Bring at least 150 rounds of ammo. Sometimes the stages require more and sometimes less. Pasting, Setting Steel and Scoring:



    If you are not the shooter on deck or reloading after you shoot then you should be helping to set steel and paste targets. This really makes a difference in how long the match takes to complete.



    New Shooters: If you are planning to bring a new shooter please make sure to get them to the range early so that they can go through the new shooter orientation.



    See you at the range,

    Definitely. $100 to join the range, which saves you $10 per match. And they hold two matches per month. Plus you can use the range and props anytime you want.

    Holy crap! That’s awesome. My local practice range just closed, issues with idiots and neighbors complaining.

    Maybe I need to move back towards the east side of the gulf coast!
