Western Action Shooting is fun for the whole family, and we have all the gear you need for your adventure down home on the range. Western Action Shooting is increasingly becoming a global phenomenon, as people of all ages and backgrounds join in their enthusiasm for the American West of the 1800’s. Participants gear up in authentic Western clothing – whether historically accurate dress or costume wear that evokes the flavor of the Old West. From hats to boots, everyone should arrive dressed to play the part. Each player typically brings four guns – a shotgun, a rifle, and two single-action pistols. Participants enter the playing arena, or range, one at a time for safety reasons. They position their weapons according to the course, and run through the challenge while being timed.
When you put on your Western cowboy hat, don’t forget your ammunition. You will also be required to choose an alias – when you register with your Western Action shooting society, your alias will be reserved so no one else can use your Western name. Western Action shooting was created to bring a piece of history to life. First created in California about 20 years ago, Western Action Shooting is a competitive sport that brings Old West enthusiasts together for a role-playing shoot-’em-up event. Contestants of all ages and ability levels are encouraged to join in the fun and learn about our colorful history at the same time.
