Ad says 1914-1918 vintage....i wonder if theyd let me shoot my 03a3

 

[Hayata]

Does this mean my 1912 Luger is out of the question?

Not that I can hit anything with it anyway...I have a C96 Mauser I could shoot but it's a late '20's model.

Oh well.

We don't care if is not manufactured during the war period, just that the type was issued during the war.

AND we allow all of these rifles and pistols. Including the O3A3, we aren't strict. If you can an argument, we will allow it.

Awesome, thank you sir

We are not limiting rifles or pistols to those of the period 1914 - 1918 this year. If you have a rifle that is close in form to one used during the Great War we'll allow it. If it's heavily modified that may be a deal breaker. 1903A3's are allowed as are Mosin 91/30's. Lee Enfield No4 models as well. We'd like to be inclusive and have folks come out to SHOOT and enjoy themselves! It'll be worth the trip just to see the machine gun display.

Sounds like a great way to see some old steel in action! Good luck with the shoot!
