3 Gun Competition in the UK?

#1 Post by dragonkid »

Is there any 3 Gun Competition in the UK, is this sport popular here? Or the best thing closet to it might be Practical Shooting Competition?

There is. Usually held at Bisley or organised by the guys at F4i.
It's not the pace of life that concerns me, it's the sudden stop at the end!

2. SMLE rifle
3. Webley .455 revolver

Four4islands have been doing 2 & 3 gun matches at various clubs & also at Bisley plus a multi-gun charity match for Help4Heroes for the past 3 years.

They have a national series running for both PSG & multi-gun that will produce national champions.

You can find out more at http://www.four4islands.org

The current multi-gun matches use Shotgun, .22 mini rifle or LBP & where the range allows full bore rifle as well.

We're getting some really good momentum with 3 gun competitions going in the UK, and four4islands is even a 3 gun nation affiliated club now too..

F4i have a pretty full calendar with the shotgun series and the multi gun series, and it keeps getting better each year, so get involved :)
