5,000 Military, Civilian, and International Marksmen Face Off: The Shooting Games at Camp Perry
5,000 Military, Civilian, and International Marksmen Face Off: The Shooting Games at Camp Perry
Historic Camp Perry, located on the Ohio shoreline of Lake Erie, has been hosting the National Rifle and Pistol Matches since 1906. Considered the World Series of Shooting Sports, for five weeks each July and August more than 5,000 of our nation’s finest civilian, military, and law enforcement shooters—men, women, and teens—compete for more than 100 trophies and awards. The National Matches are conducted by a partnership among the Civilian Marksmanship Program (CMP), National Rifle Association (NRA), and Ohio National Guard (ONG). W. H. “Chip” Gross spent time recently at this year’s matches. See what he learned about the history and the future of this long-lived shooting competition.

What a great site. It's to bad that clown in Washington wouldn't let South Korea send our beautiful military firearms back. Shame.
The California Grizzlies Jr rifle team and their coaches have done themselves proud the last several years.
Would just like to point out that in picture number 15 (Also the preview picture) that the young lady shouldn't have her finger on the trigger, while looking the opposite direction in which the muzzle is pointing! This is probably a small and insignificant infraction but all the new(and newer) shooters that are viewing these photos should know that its not acceptable to do this.
Moreover, she has on no shooting glasses, has an ugly rifle color scheme, and is wearing funny makeup and an irascible scowl.
I bet she runs with scissors too.
guess some one has never been on a rifle range hot.
It looks like her muzzle is pointed in a safe direction to me... what's the problem?
Keep your finger off the trigger until ready to shoot.
This is S.O.P. and one of the ten commandments of firearm safety.
Furthermore you have no idea what might be happening down range, even if one moment ago it was clear. Simply put you can't make that determination if you aren't looking.
I've served my country and spent plenty of time behind a rifle. If you can't follow basic and simple rules you have no business whatsoever being behind a firearm.
