If these type matches are good enough for rifle, I guess we should shoot them with handguns as well. We allow any handgun model used by a military organization, 50 years ago or older. Any safe ammo. Firing done one handed at 25 yards on US ARMY "L" Targets. Standard NRA Outdoor Pistol course:

20 shots slowfire
10 shots slowfire, 10 shots timed fire and 10 shots rapid fire.
20 shots timed fire
20 shots rapid fire

Here are the scores fired on 8/27/11

The whole gang had a great time. The targets are easier than the targets used in the NRA Matches but we were not using Match grade handguns. If you would like to see the match program, email me at douglasmbowser@yahoo.com
