Something different this time folks.

In an effort to keep things simple, we’ll select a couple of rifles from each “side” to be used in this match. The rifles will be limited to Warsaw Pact and NATO service rifles used between 1946 and 1975.

Examples of Warsaw Pact rifles: SKS, AK-47, M44, M38, M91/30, etc

Examples of NATO rifles: M-1 Garand, M-1 Carbine, M-14, M-16, FN-FAL, G93, etc

There are lots of others for sure. Obviously, the M-14/16 are the civilian equivalents (M1A, AR15).

Now for the twist. There are two categories.

Category 1. Iron sights, ANY MODIFICATION except for optical sights. Any ammo.

Category 2. Optical sights ONLY. Any ammo.

Targets:
Our SurplusRifle.com standard downloaded SR-1 modified target will be used for both categories.

Target File Type
Target #1 Adobe Acrobat PDF File


Distances:
Category 1 will be shot at 50 yards, 3 targets 5 shots each
Category 2 will be shot at 100 yards, 3 targets 5 shots each

Positions:
Category 1 will be shot from an UNSUPPORTED offhand position (slings okay)
Category 2 will be shot from a front rested bench support (no rear support), slings okay

Each shooter may submit up to a total of FOUR sets of targets, broken down as a set from:

If you have the rifles, ammo and accessories, go for it.

Awards:
There will be certificates sent to the shooters in each group. Door prizes will be selected at random from all qualified entries. You may have up to 4 chances to win a door prize if you submit all categories of rifle, however, you may win only one door prize per match.
