WHY:
It is the mission of the Free Range Ministries First Responder 3-Gun Competition to say Thank You to first responders and to honor those who serve. We hope to provide a fun, competitive atmosphere where participants can socialize with each other and be challenged while shooting the multi-stage match. We want each first responder to leave the competition with a sense of pride for their part in making our communities safer and to know they are appreciated.
