Hi, I was wondering if anybody knew of matches or clubs in the Ft. Riley area?I'd love to try competition shooting, any type, just don't know of anything closer than Topeka.

Thanks!

Go to www.uspsa.org and use their "club finder".

This is a very common problem. A lot of gun clubs do a very poor job of letting the community know they even exist. How do you get a new club member if they do not know the club is there?

I wish more of them would advertise, at least once in awhile. I recently found out their is a gun club here. I just happened to be talking to a guy who mentioned something about a meeting.

I realize a lot of the clubs are small and have no full time staff, but an occasional advertisement in the paper, a small handbill or business card at local gun shops and pawn shops would be great.

Thanks for the help, dunno how I missed that. Still nothing all that close. Shoot.

How the heck does a good sized military base not have anthing? What kind of crazy world is this?
