Monterey County Swiss Rifle Club & Carmel Gun Club. As far as I know the only Swiss Club 'tween Vancouver and Los Angeles
>>Click here<<
The MCSRC' has an emphasis on shooting rifles, on a 300metre range. Pistols don't alway make the non SchÃ?Â¼tzenfest program and there were a number of Medal events that didn't happen last year, but if enough people show interest...
Last year, at the SchÃ?Â¼tzenfest, there were about 50 rifle shooters, and if memory serves, about 35 pistol shooters.
It is the real deal!
Scores are submitted to Switzerland! Certificates and medals are awarded!!

From the Carmel Gun Club Feb. 2007 Newsletter
Here is this year's schedule:

Mar 17 -- Vancouver International Match (10 rds for record on the A10 target). Compete for a nice medal from the Swiss Canadian Mountain Range Association from Vancouver, BC. This also will be the Sauschiessen (pig shoot) -- details forthcoming in March newsletter.

Note on the Swiss matches: Swiss shooting tradition also includes pistol, so if that interests you, be sure to bring one along because if time and energy allow we will shoot pistol following the rifle matches.

Apr 21 -- Swiss Shooting Federation (SSV) Einzelwettschiessen (10 rds for record on the A10 target). Compete for a nice medal from the SSV in individual competition.

May 26, 27 -- 3rd Annual MCSRC SchÃ?Â¼tzenfest. Feldschloesschenstich/Feldschiessen (18 rounds on the B4 target), John Sutter Historical Shoot (10 rds, A10) and Obligatorisch (20 rds, A5 and B4). Brewery Medal, MCSRC medal and Swiss Army Open Field Shooting medal. No medals will be awarded for Obligatorisch (i.e. mandatory annual Swiss shooting evaluation). [ If I remember correctly, qualifiers get an official card. erik]
Prizes will be awarded for other individual events and combined aggregate score (including Obligatorisch).

Jun 9 -- Canton Ticino Wine Shoot (10 rds, A10) compete for Monterey County wine and other prizes. Come celebrate the Italian Swiss tradition of the Salinas Valley by participating in our 2nd Annual Swiss Wine Shoot and learn about the origins of the Swiss Americans from Canton Ticino.

We would like to get to the point where these matches run like clockwork, so as a start please arrive by 8:00AM on match day, and plan on being registered and ready to go by 9:00. Registration will *close* at 8:30, so please be prompt. Remember that once you get to the freeway offramp, you still have five miles (six Swiss miles) to go, so allow plenty of driving time.
Every non-member who shows up for a match will get his first match free, but then will have to join the {Carmel Gun } club to shoot thereafter {$25. cheap}. We will continue to charge all members range fees at each match. These fees may vary, depending on the match, but plan on at least 15 dollars. If you use club ammo, you will have to pay a nominal fee for that.

Check out the Swiss Clubs and Events page for info on previous MCSRC events & results.

The group by was set up by RockportRifle at the SRDC website he put in alot of time and effort and desevres a hearty 'Well done Sir!'
The importer was LeRoy's Big Valley Gun Works.
As for the stamp, I was told it would be decrete; I'll let youse guys know when I get the old girl home.

The MCSRC shoots are always a fun time, and they can sure cook up some great steaks!!
I hope to see many new shooters in Monterey!
Gute Schuss!
