This course is appropriate for a wide breadth of student skill levels and lays a sound foundation for students to shoot groups under time pressure from a variety of practical stances and field positions. \nPlease review the Pistol 100 and Rifle 125 course descriptions for an overview of topics that will be covered over the weekend. \nPrerequisites: None \nEstimated Ammunition Required: About 250 rounds each of pistol and rifle ammunition (500 total). \nPistol Requirements: You will need a safe pistol with at least five round capacity to fully participate in this course. Pistols should be of a modern\, drop safe design. \nOlder single action pistols manufactured before the 1980s and lacking a transfer bar safety are the most common type of pistol that lack drop safe design features\, as do some military surplus imports from Eastern bloc countries and Taurus PT-series pistols not fixed during an international safety recall in 2015. These pistols may discharge if dropped and pose a potential safety hazard to our volunteers and students\, and are not permitted. If you have concerns about the safety features of your pistol you should have it inspected by an armorer or gunsmith before class. \nRifle Requirements: You will need a safe rifle chambered in your preferred caliber. Magazine-fed semi-automatic rifles generally work best for our classes\, but any other type of rifle (tube-fed semi-automatic\, lever-action\, bolt-action\, etc.) can be used as well. Bring whatever rifle you have and we will work with you. \nRequired Equipment: You should plan to bring the following equipment to the event: \n\nat least two magazines for your rifle\nat least two magazines for your pistol\na way to take notes\nhearing protection\neye protection\nplenty of your preferred method of hydration (both plain water and something to replace electrolytes you will lose via sweating is ideal)\nclothing appropriate for the weather (loose fitting clothing\, especially around the neck\, is discouraged as hot brass can lodge against the skin and cause a burn)\n\nIt is helpful that all ammunition be of the same type (i.e. same weight\, manufacturer\, etc) for this event. Our volunteers have identified several accessories that may be helpful at this type of event: \n\npistol accessories\nrifle accessories\n\nRifle shooting will primarily be at 25 yards. Pistol shooting will primarily be at 7 yards. Rimfire pistols and/or rifles will be perfectly suitable for this event. \nWe will not be drawing from the holster in this class and we will run a “cold range.” You will not need a holster to participate in the class activities. \nOptional Equipment: The following equipment is not required but may come in handy at the event: \n\nsling for your rifle (a US GI sling is preferred; loaner slings are typically available at the event)\nhat with a brim (to deflect flying hot brass)\nshooting mat\, carpet remnant or similar\nfolding chair\nlunch\nsnacks\nsunscreen and/or bug spray\n\nLoaner Firearms: loaner firearms suitable for use at this event are generally available but limited. Please contact the Event Director if you would like to request a loaner firearm. \nAdditional Range Information\nYour ticket price includes all range fees and lunch. \nSpectators are welcome but will be asked to remain a safe distance from the firing line (ear protection is required for all spectators; eye protection is optional). Additional lunch tickets will be sold for $10/person on the day of the event. \nOvernight Accommodations\n\nA block of rooms are available at the Holiday Inn Express in Bedford\, IN (about 15 minutes south of the range). Call the hotel directly (812-279-1206) and ask for one of the rooms reserved for “Revere’s Riders/Marty Brown Memorial Open”. The block of rooms will only be held until July 15th; after that\, the rooms will be made available to the general public. \nEvent Sponsors\nWe would like to thank the following event sponsors for their generosity in helping to make this event possible. \n\n\n\n\n\nLWRC International\n\n\n\n\n\nGun Storage Solutions\n\n\n\n\n\nProMag/Archangel\n\n\n\n\n\nIWI\n\n\n\n\n\nPremier Arms\n\n\n\n\n\nGun Tote’n Mamas\n\n\n\n\n\nCrossbreed Holsters\n\n\n\n\n\nBrownells\n\n\n\n\n\nA&A Optics\n\n\n\n\n\nClenzoil\n\n\n\n\n\nGander Outdoors\n\n\n\n\n\nAmerica’s Gunsmith Shop\n\n\n\n\n\nKitanica\n\n\n\n\n\nDaniel Defense\n\n\n\n\n\nUM Tactical\n\n\n\n\n\nHodgdon Powder Co.\n\n\n\n\n\nWalkers\n\n\n\n\n\nATI Outdoors\n\n\n\n\n\nMagpul\n\n\n\n\n\nWilson Combat\n\n\n\n\n\nSIG Sauer\n\n\n\n\n\nOntario Knife Co\n\n\n\n\n\nCVA\n\n\n\n\n\nSCCY\n\n\n\n\n\nWalther\n\n\n\n\n\nVortex Optics\n\n\n\n\n\nHiding Hilda\n\n\n\n\n\nTaurus\n\n\n\n\n\nD&E Printing\n\n\n\n\n\nTimber Creek Outdoors\n\n\n\n\n\nRock River Arms\n\n\n\n\n\nVoodoo Tactical\n\n\n\n\n\nSafariland\n\n\n\n\n\nAlien Gear Holsters\n\n\n\n\n\nCrimson Trace\n\n\n\n\n\nHi-Point Firearms\n\n\n\n\n\nKestrel Meters\n\n\n\n\n\nMossberg\n\n\n\n\n\nColt\n\n\n\n\n\nAdco Sales\n\n\n\n\n\nPalmetto State Armory\n\n\n\n\n\nKelTec\n\n\n\n\n\nBenelli\n\n\n\n\n\nHenry Repeating Arms\n\n\n\n\n\nSpent Rounds Designs\n\n\n\n\n\nNine Line Apparel\n\n\n\n\n\nTarget Factory\n\n\n\n\n\nAguila Ammunition\n\n\n\n\n\nIndy Arms Company\n\n\n\nEva-Dry\n\n\n\n\n\nTed Nugent\n\n\n\n\n\nWindham Weaponry\n\n\n\n\n\nBravo Company Mfg
