BLACK SWAMP CARBINE
THIS EVENT CLOSES THE 300m, Cowboy Town and 500yd
SUMMARY AND COURSE OF FIRE: Tactical shooting with modern rifles and pistols. No scoring. A variety of courses of fire such as the use of barricades, moving while firing, changing positions, weak-hand firing, magazine changes, etc. We share knowledge, skills, and drills. We run a hot range with slung rifles. A group of like-minded people gathered to share their knowledge of modern platforms of defense, and it evolved into an organized shoot to continue this and involve others. Check out the pictures below!
EQUIPMENT: Ear and eye protection, modern box magazine-fed carbine/rifle of intermediate caliber (AR-15, AK-47, etc.), rifle sling, modern pistol (9mm up to .45 caliber), at least three magazines per firearm, magazine pouches, approximately 300 rounds per firearm.
