Air Rifle & Pistol

Air guns, traditionally regarded as guns for beginners, have now made the transition to guns for everyone. Some types, such as the familiar BB gun, are excellent as a "first gun;" other types are designed and used by seasoned international competitors.

Whether they are used for recreation or sport, for field use or as an inexpensive training tool, air rifles and air pistols are an excellent way to enjoy shooting. In recent years, air guns have undergone dramatic improvements in reliability, durability and accuracy. Air guns offer flexibility - they can be safely fired by shooters of all ages and experience levels.

There has been some DSA interest expressed in doing some indoor 10 meter air arms (rifle and/or pistol) Shooting during the colder months (we all get 'cabin fever').  So, on the following Wednesday evenings, from 1930 hrs to 2130 hrs, we will do just that in the Club House: Nov. 5 & 19, Dec. 3 & 17, Jan. 7 & 21 and Feb. 4 & 18. Cost will be $5.00/shooter .. and you do not have to be a DSA Member to shoot .. male, female, teen-ager through senior citizen .. all will be welcome.

If you have an adult air arm (spring or pre-charge, rifle or pistol ~ but NO BB guns , they ricochet….) come on out and shoot with us. If you are interested, but do not have an adult air arm, come on out ~ we can supply you with one .. and you can try a variety of different makes and models. Air arms are excellent training for muzzle loading shooting, since both have longer dwell time than shooting smokeless-powder cartridges.
