    Please see post #64 for important update on ammo

    Mark your calendars, the AGC C&R 2 Gun Action Match will be held on Sunday, June 6, 2021.

    We are hoping to get a feel for how many shooters may participate. The match will feature 3 to 4 stages depending on interest, each stage based on a historical WW1 or WW2 battle. Being on June 6th there will of course be a D-Day themed stage, shooting out to 200 yards, different props depending on the stage theme, and more.

    Divisions will be as follows:

    Manual Division:

    Rifle: Any military surplus bolt action rifle, or any lever action rifle. Bolt actions must be stripper clip or manually fed with a magazine capacity no greater than 10 rounds, using only iron sights or period correct optics. Detachable magazines may not be used for reloads at any time. We encourage you to bring out legitimate WW1/WW2 rifles such as the Mosin Nagant, P14/M1917, Enfield, Mauser, 1903 Springfield, K31, Etc.

    Pistol: Any revolver or pistol with iron sights only. Modern pistols (Post 1970) may only load magazines to 7 round capacity, period correct firearms may be loaded to their full capacity using magazines or feeding systems that are period correct (Pre-1970).

    Auto Division:

    Rifle: Any semi-automatic rifle designed or militarily adopted prior to 1946, with a magazine capacity no greater than 15 rounds, using only iron sights or period correct optics. May use stripper clips, en-bloc clips, or detachable magazines. We encourage you to bring out legitimate WW2 era rifles such as the M1 Garand, M1 Carbine, SVT-40, G43, AG-42B, MAS series rifles, etc. SKS are allowed.

    Pistol: Any revolver or pistol with iron sights only. Modern pistols (Post 1970) may only load magazines to 7 round capacity, period correct firearms may be loaded to their full capacity using magazines or feeding systems that are period correct (Pre-1970).

    Bayonet & Knife: If you have a bayonet for your rifle, bring it. It is not required but there is potential for a stage to require bayonetting or stabbing a target. We will provide a knife if you do not bring a bayonet of your own for this purpose.

    If you have a question about gear or have something that fits the spirit of the match but doesn't exactly meet the requirements, ask and we will make a determination.

    Ideally this will be a fun and friendly match and a chance for people to get out and use their interesting historical firearms in an exciting way. More info will be posted as we get closer. Looking forward to seeing you there!

    A couple things to add: the match will follow the Mid Atlantic 3 gun rules that we use currently during the AGC 3 gun matches.

    Registration will be via Practiscore like all our other matches and we will let everyone know here and via the standard email process when we plan to post the match and when it opens.

    This sounds so much fun! Do you need to be an AGC member to participate? And will all comers be allowed to participate? For example, if you’ve never done 3 gun before, can you participate in this?

    This match will be open to the public, so you don’t need to be an AGC member to participate.

    Prior match experience helps but all are welcome, and we are pretty newbie friendly. Keep an eye out once we get into spring, AGC runs Thursday night “practice” sessions every other week that would help you get a feel for how a match goes and give you a little experience shooting on the clock

    This sounds like fun. I’ll pencil it in for my son and I. He leaves for Paris Island Shortly after this so it should be a fun time for him before he leaves.

    I am very much looking forward to this. :D

    2021 doesn't look quite so bleak any more...it just might be worth surviving the first battles of the civil war after all ;)
