Next match – please join us for the “MCRC Tactical Match – Multi Gun Outlaw” that we are hosting on August 23rd, 2025. This will be our annual BUG Friendly match, with low round counts and shorter target distances for the handgun portions of each stage. Announcement will be made using our usual methods of Practiscore and our mail chimp e-mail. Marc and I have decided that this match will be free for everyone. We will have a shotgun and ammo for the shotgun stage, or you can bring your own automatic or pump action. If you don’t have a Pistol Caliber Carbine, we will have several that you are welcome to use. This month we will be shooting 5 Multi Gun stages and will bring out some of our usual props. While action filled, we will not be running between bays like we have been so it will be somewhat toned down for the heat we expect. One of the stages is below so you can plan how you would shoot it:
Next IDPA match will be Saturday September 27th, 2025. Details forthcoming via our usual methods, Practiscore and our Facebook Page, IDPA At MCRC.
