WELCOME
The White Mountain Practical Shooters is a USPSA/IPSC club. We were founded in 1998 with the objective of being safe and having FUN.
If you enjoy your firearms, and want to protect your rights to own and use firearms, contact your legislators and let them know your feelings.
PRACTICAL SHOOTING
For handguns, targets are placed anywhere from point blank distance to 50 yards away. They may be paper targets, steel plates, or knock down steel targets called “Pepper Poppers” after their inventor, John Pepper. After the course of fire is described to everyone, you get to try your hand at the course. We rarely repeat a course of fire, so the challenges are always different.
For your first match, you need to bring:
1. Eye protection (to be worn at all times).
2. Ear Protection
3. A Centerfire handgun - .38 Spl, 9mm or larger
4. A holster, belt, and a way to carry at least 2 magazines or speedloaders
5. 100 rounds of ammunition
As we shoot in the National Forest, we ask for a donation of $8 from non-members to offset the costs of targets, tape, staples, etc.
The divisions are:
Limited – Factory stock guns
Limited 10 – Factory stock guns with 10 rounds or less in the magazine
Production – Double action/Safe Action, Glocks, Springfield XD’s, etc.
Single Stack – 1911 style guns with single stack magazines
Revolver - Revolvers
Open – Optic sights, compensators, long barrels, any safe modification
For USPSA definitions of acceptable competitor equipment for a respective division look at Chapter 5 and the appendices beginning on page 74 here.
The 2nd Sunday and 4th Saturday of each month weather permitting. Setup starts at 8 AM, the shooters meeting starts at 9 AM. We are usually done no later than 1 PM.
