Post by SnowDog070 »

Im new to the 50M Rifle Target Shooting and looking for the Glasses (Not the Sunglasses type) and pair of jacket and pants.
But so far having no luck on finding the local store. Anyone know a good place? Thank you!

Competition shooting is highly specialized so local stores for these things generally do not exist, unless you live in the same town as one of the national dealers.

Creedmoor Sports used be in Oceanside until they moved to Alabama. You may wish to visit your local ISSF-style club* and see what local shooters use and what used gear they may be willing to sell you. Club members may know of former members who have left the sport and not yet sold off their gear.


*=Doesn't LA have a big club that uses the former 1984 Olympic Range?

The club you're thinking of is the Los Angeles Rifle & Revolver Club (http://www.larrclub.org), but we don't use the 1984 Olympic range. That range was the Prado range, and while it still exists, it's no longer focused on Olympic type competition, for the most part.

And yes, we have many people who have gear that they may be interested in parting with. So come on down!
