There's Still Time to Register for the 2012 Crosman FT Shoot!

Don't miss out on attending the 2012 Northeast Regional Field Target Championship that will be held at Crosman's corporate headquarters in Bloomfield NY on 6, 7 and 8 July. Registration for this excellent event must be completed by 29 June.

There's a wide variety of excellently-sighted targets placed around the grounds of the Crosman factory to provide challenging shooting. Also there's a practice range facility and an air pistol shoot. Don't think that you have to be a great shot to attend, there's a great welcome for beginners, too, and all of us benefit from the opportunity to meet other airgun shooters and have a great time.

Crosman are gracious hosts - and although although I obviously cannot speak for Crosman and promise what they will do - in previous years the company has provided complimentary cold water and sodas to keep shooters hyrdated in the hot weather. There's also been a tent with chairs and tables for Lunch and as a gathering point for competitors. Also provided have been tanks of compressed air so that shooters can easily recharge their PCPs. Crosman has also provided some generous "door prizes" for attendees to win.

And I believe that there will again be some Crosman products available for purchase at the shoot.

For me, a highlight of this event is always the chance to tour the Crosman manufacturing facility!

Among the interesting sights that we've seen in previous years on the factory tour are the noisy and complex Powerlet-manufacturing machinery, the busy 760 assembly line and the Marauder manufacturing/testing area. There's also been the chance to see how pellets are manufactured and packed. And the knowledgeable guides are pleased to answer questions.

I'll see you there...
