Help save my niece...

She has been hanging out with a bad crowd. The "spray and pray" guys have her in their clutches.

Tell me about any Bullseye or Air Pistol activity in the Charlotte, NC area.

Maybe I can find her a "safe haven."

I feel for you! I can reccommend Sir walter gun club and Durham rifle and pistol range. BUT they are about 2 hours from you during the warm season there is a 2700 once a month at both clubs. I drive from VA (4 hours) to each of these matches!

Charlotte has the indoor and outdoor bullseye.

In North Carolina we try to coordinate the outdoor matches, generally running from March to October

Asheville Rifle and Pistol - 1st Saturday
Charlotte Club - 2nd Saturday
Durham Pistol and Rifle Club - 3rd Sunday
Sir Walter Gun Club (Raleigh) 4th Saturday

There are also a couple of clubs in South Carolina and Caviler Gun Club in Richmond VA is usually 4th Saturday as well.

Drop me a PM if the internet search does not turn up what you need.

However, the IPSC / USPSA is very active with matches pretty much every weekend and sometimes 2 a weekend within driving distance of Charlotte.

Closest Air is the Citadel match in South Carolina, easy search to find it and I think they also have a Sectional in February.

CR10X,

I called Citedel military college intermural department (843-953-7778) and they said they do not allow anyone but the students to participate in tournements, and that there will not be any matches open to the public in february.

Did I call the right number?

Probably the difference between college matches and other club events?

Try Rob Patton at robchs "at" aol.com.

or

Robert Patton
Citadel Pistol Coach
843-729-0707

I got this a part of a message in November announcing for the SC Junior Olympic Championship & NRA Approved Pistol Match on December 6-7, 2014 on the campus of The Citadel in Charleston, SC.

Next match will be a NRA Open International Sectional on February 28 - March 1, 2015. Details will be forthcoming.
Good Shooting!
