Clubs allowing holster draw and "action shooting"

[MJM]

Does your club allow drawing from the holster?

If so are there any rules/exceptions?

If you can please include the name of the club that would be great.

thanks in advance

Monadnock, in Jaffrey, NH.

Rules - don't draw and shoot if someone is down range.

 

[DirkDiggler]

Walpole Sportsman's has a Combat Pistol league. Same rules apply, don't shoot when anyone is down range...

Anyone know if Hudson Fish and Game or Londonderry Fish and Game allow it?

 

[MJM]

londonderry does, so does pioneer and pelham . not sure about hudson though

No problem at the Hampden pistol and rifle club in Hampden Maine. They are an IDPA and USPSA affiliated club.

 

[gerrycaruso]

Harvard Sportsmens Club. IPSC IDPA SASS and too much other stuff to list here.

Hudson has no outdoor pistol facilities so I would guess they do not allow drawing from holster.

 

[Roadblock]

I've heard Pelham has plenty of action pits and is very active with IDPA.

 

[Len-2A Training]

Mansfield F&G allows it as long as you follow all the safety rules.

 

[MJM]

apparently Westford MA allows it as well.

Any other clubs?

Boston Gun and Rifle. We have a pins and plates match that includes one USPSA like stage every 4th Sunday. 5th Sunday is an action shooting match. Yes, you can draw from the holster when just practicing.\

We're an indoor range.

Westford Sportsmen's Club has no restrictions on drawing from the holster, rapid fire, moving while shooting or shooting at multiple IDPA or IPSC style targets. Just do it safely, the same as if you were doing slow fire bulls eye.

Southborough rod & Gun: does not allow drawing from a holster.

Hoping to change that in the future.

I'm also interested in knowing if the facility is an indoor or outdoor range.

Thanks,

Harvard has both indoor and outdoor ranges from 7 to 300 yards.

Ken,

Could you PM me the club info? Is it 7/24 access too? I been living in the area for several years and looking for something closer with the added plus of being able to draw and shoot.

Thx,
William

I'm not Ken but it's Westford Sportsmensclub. The club has an indoor range with 24/7 access but it has some reasonable restrictions: target size, all targets must be at 50', can't really move. The outdoor ranges are open 9AM to sunset (Monday-Sat,) and noon-sunset on Sunday. They have very few restrictions.

It has been a long time since I've visited Hudson Fish & Game. They used to have an indoor .22 rifle/pistol range on the second floor of the clubhouse.

You are correct sir. Drawing form holster is allowed, even encouraged, in the action pits.

 

[MJM]
