PATRIOT3 GUN NATION

MATCHThe PATRIOT 3 Gun match held June

11th & 12th gave shooters up here in the northeastthe largest most challenging 3 Gun match in thestate. It also was our first 3 Gun Nation (3GN)associated match and our first glimpse at shootingan official 3GN classifier stage. Shooters werechallenged with 5 stages in a full day match formatwith high round counts that stressed mind, bodyand gear.

Three of the Five stages required all 3guns while the last stage featured a shotgun onlystage with a crazy 38 round run through the woods.There was a lot of equipment sharing going on tobe able to carry all the ammo a shooter needed tocomplete the stage.

The new range improvements showedtheir worth. We were once again blasted by rainbefore the match started, but because of all thework done to the range we were able to shoot thematch with minimal mud to deal with. Shootersfrom all over the state witnessed and commentedon how much the range has improved.

This was the largest sanctioned match atORGC with close to 50 shooters over 2 days.

The competition was great and so was thecomradery. Thanks to all the RO’s and workerswho helped to put a match of this size on.

After all was said and done winners are:

Tactical Optics (Practical): Eugene JankowskiTactical Limited (Factory): Beep KielkowiczOpen (Unlimited): Eli SaberHeavy Optics: Keith BourgeoisHeavy Limited: Ted Firnstein

The next 3GN match is theMINUTEMAN Match Sept 18th.

installed. We are looking for volunteers to assistwith this project and bring it to fruition. See SteveVerdi for information about how to help.

Due to reconstruction of the East trap house we willbe using the West field (Trap Two). Because of this there maybe some delays with trap shooting and those wishing to use thelong rifle range.
