The Army Marksmanship Unit is going to run matches on their ranges that civilian shooters will be able to participate in. The first three matches are scheduled for February 18, March 4, and April 1. The February 18 match will be held on Easley Range but the March and April matches will be held on McAndrews Range.
The match format for each event will be one 300 yard mid-range prone slow fire and two 600 yard mid-range slow fire matches. The reason for the 300 yard match is to allow those shooters who do not have good zeros to get them at 300 yards and also identify any shooters whose firearms and/or ability make it impractical for them to continue to shoot at the 600 yard line.
The match will be open to service, match, Palma, F-class,and Mid-Range Tactical (AR) rifle.
Fort Benning requires that firearms be registered before being brought onto the installation. Attached is a blank registration form and a sample filled-in registration form. The completed forms need to be mailed to me at James A. Youmans, P.O. Box 1562, Fortson, GA 31808-1562. I will be the sponsor and will get the forms signed. I will return a copy to shooters via fax or email and will hand out the original forms at the match. Shooters who want to go on post and register their firearms themselves can do so prior to the match. Old registrations are still valid if you have the stamped copy of the form. The MPs did not retain copies of the old registration forms, so those who registered their firearms but do not have copies of the form must register their guns again.
Shooters who do not have military, retired military, or DOD civilian employee ID cards must get a pass before going on post, including the vehicle driver and all passengers. These passes are only dispensed at the I-185 gate. There is a small white trailer under a large metal shed on the right side of the road about 200 yards before the main check point. One only needs a state issued ID card or driver's license to obtain a pass. The process takes as little as 10 minutes or as much as 30 minutes depending on the number of people in line to obtain passes. Do not take firearms or firearms registration forms into the visitor pass center.
You should not tell anyone that you have firearms in your possession unless you are specifically asked by a member of law enforcement.
