VOLUNTEER SPIRIT ALIVE & WELL WITHIN FHRPC
The Morningside Drive rifle and pistol ranges were closed on Saturday, May 22, 2003, for maintenance. A small, but hardworking, group of members turned out to support the spring clean up. Thanks go to Chet Amick, Wayne Belloff, Jon Eastham, Howard Fezell, Barry Fickes, Ken Fuller, Bill Gero, Andy Gilpin, Russ Lease, Bill Lewis, Jim Schmidt, Frank Snyder, Jake Teter and Terry Wilson for supporting this work party. We are a volunteer organization. These guys stepped up to the plate and gave a little bit of their free time to make the FHRPC a nicer place for all members to shoot.
2ND ANNUAL GREAT GUNS RAFFLE & SHOOTING MATCHES
Ticket sales for the second annual great guns raffle are underway. The raffle and associated shooting matches will be held on Sunday, October 10, at the FHRPC Warrior Mountain range. Recall, last year we conducted our first 20-gun raffle. The raffle and associated shooting matches were a big success. They were successful because you, the FHRPC membership, bailed in and served as ticket salesmen. Never before have we seen such volunteer support from within our ranks. Hopefully, you will support the raffle again this year.
The FHRPC has selected a squad of 20 fine firearms for this year’s raffle. The list includes eight centerfire rifles, three shotguns, three muzzleloading rifles, three handguns and three 22-caliber rimfire rifles. The rifles are listed on the last page of this newsletter. Terry Mulligan at Mulligan’s Gun Shop in Ridgeley, West Virginia, is handling the firearms. You can see these fine firearms at Mulligan’s Gun Shop Tuesday through Saturday, between the hours of 11 AM and 8 PM. You can also buy a raffle ticket at Mulligan’s Gun Shop.
When you buy a raffle ticket, you get a one-in-one thousand chance to win each of these fine firearms.
You also get a free entry into each of two shooting matches with each ticket purchase.
Details of the shooting matches to be held on October 10, 2004, in conjunction with the lottery have been finalized. Two matches will be conducted, including a muzzleloading rifle match and a centerfire rifle match. The muzzleloading match will consist of five shots fired for record from the offhand position at a range of 100 yards in a 20-minute time limit. Any muzzleloading rifle with any sights legal for Maryland deer hunting will be allowed. The centerfire rifle match will consist of two sighter shots and ten shots fired for record from the prone position at a range of 300 yards in a 20-minute time limit. Centerfire rifles of 45 caliber or less, with any sights are allowed. The competitor may use any support in the centerfire match, including bipod, sand bags, shooting sticks or sling. Ties in both matches will be broken by shoot offs. A more extensive list of match rules ‘n regulations is attached near the end of this newsletter.
The FHRPC will need significant volunteer help to support these matches. If you are interested in helping, please feel free to call Marty Harsh at 301-759-2877.
LARRY WEBB BENEFIT MATCH
Larry Webb, one of our life members, has a big health problem. He needs a new heart. A heart transplant is an expensive operation. His family and friends are working hard to raise $150,000 to support the transplant.
The FHRPC is going to hold the Larry Webb Benefit Match on Sunday, October 3, at the Morningside Drive rifle range. All proceeds from this benefit match will be donated to Larry’s transplant fund.
The course of fire will be fifteen shots for record with unlimited sighters. The range will be 50 yards. All shooting, including sighters and record shots, must be completed in a 25-minute time limit. Any 22-rimfire rifle with any sights may be used. Any support may be used. We expect most competitors to use the shooting benches and a generous pile of sand bags. Competitors will be squadded in relays beginning every 30 minutes, starting at 10 AM. Competitors must supply their own ammunition.
The match entry fee is $10. Multiple entries will be allowed. Each competitor may only post his or her highest score.
First, second and third place awards will be $50, $25 and $15, respectively. All other proceeds will be donated to Larry’s transplant fund.
For more information, please feel free to call your club secretary, Marty Harsh, at 301-759-2877.
EIGHT PROMOTED TO LIFE MEMBERS
Eight members were promoted to life membership in 2004. New life members include Chester D. Amick, Mark A. Bell, Michael G. Carney, James N. Goldsworthy, Steven P. Light, David T. Mackert, Clarence L. Morgan and Mark E. Stottlemeyer. The FHRPC now has 65 life members.
The FHRPC thanks these men for their dedication and support. They are the backbone of the FHRPC. Recall, folks who maintain FHRPC membership for 25 continuous years earn life membership. These gray beards provide much needed continuity to the club and a measure of stability that has enabled us to grow for 60 years. Life membership is dues free.
Your mailing label will have an uppercase L in parentheses, (L), after your name if you are a life member.
The FHRPC membership roster is 382 names long. The roster includes 293 regular members, 65 life members, 23 police officers and 1 soldier. We do not count life members, police officers and soldiers in our membership cap of 300 members.
There are 63 names on the membership waiting list.
SILHOUETTE LEAGUE WILL HAVE RIFLE LOTTERY
FOR NEW SHOOTERS
The FHRPC silhouette league will conduct a rifle lottery at the end of the 2004 season. One lucky competitor will be selected at random from the pot of new shooters supporting the league in 2004. The new competitors’ names will be entered into the lottery once for each match fired in the 2004 season. If you shoot three matches, your name goes in the lottery three times. If you shoot ten matches, your name goes in the pot ten times. The lottery rifle is a new-in-box Ruger model 10/22 rimfire rifle.
The silhouette league is on track to greatly expand participation this year. We have already exceeded last year’s number of competitors by 30% with 36 shooters turning out to play the game. We have just reached the middle of the shooting season. So, there is still plenty of time to get in the game.
Everyone is invited to come out and test his or her skill. Silhouette shooting requires a good shooting 22-rimfire and a steady hand. All shooting is fired from the offhand position. The match fee for adults is only $4. Juniors, 18 years old or younger, shoot for free. The league shoots every Thursday evening, except the first Thursday of each month. A league-hosted barbeque is held on the last Thursday of each month at no cost to competitors.
WVU RIFLE TEAM REINSTATED
The public outcry against the WVU administration’s decision to cut the Rifle Team was loud – real loud. So loud, in fact, that the West Virginia legislature budgeted $100,000 for Rifle Team support.
The roar from the mountains was loud enough to make the liberal minded WVU administration reverse their previous decision and reinstate the Rifle Team.
Recall, in April, 2003, West Virginia University (WVU), located just 70 miles west of us in Morgantown, West Virginia, pulled the plug on their national championship rifle team. WVU leadership cited funding limitations and the need to promote sports in which both men and women can compete (Title IX). We’re not sure how the Rifle Team fit into either of these two categories. Men and women compete on an equal basis in shooting competition and the rifle team budget is trivial when compared to other sports. The WVU Rifle Team is the most winning National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) sport at WVU. Since 1980, when the NCAA first sanctioned shooting, WVU has won 13 National Championships.
The WVU Rifle Team first responded to the cut by forming the WVU Rifle Club. Marsh Beasley, the Rifle Team coach, favors keeping the Rifle Club as both a fundraising mechanism and a means of recruiting highly skilled shooters. The Rifle Club is sponsoring a raffle on July 31. It’s too early to tell at this time, but it looks like the Rifle Club raffle will gross well over $400,000. The grand prize is a custom built motorcycle from Orange County Choppers. Rumor has it that a Morgantown businessman has already offered $200,000 for the bike to keep it in town.
BARNES EARNS DISTINGUISHED RIFLEMAN’S BADGE
On Sunday, May 30, Terry Barnes won his third LEG match and became the fourth distinguished rifleman in the FHRPC. Barnes won the match with a score of 474-10X out of a possible 500 points. Barnes won his first LEG match in 2002 with a score of 478-9X. He posted another win in 2003 with a score of 471-10X. Each of Barnes’ wins came with solid NRA highpower master class scores. Not only did Barnes shoot superbly in these matches, but he also did it with US model service rifle according to Civilian Marksmanship Program (CMP) LEG match rules.
Barnes prefers the M16 style service rifle. M16 rifles can be disassembled into upper and lower halves. He shoots a Bushmaster lower with Compass Lake Engineering upper. Barnes’ lower half incorporates a Jewell trigger group adjusted to the 4.5-pound minimum acceptable trigger pull. His upper half sports a Krieger stainless steel barrel with 1 turn-in-7.7 inches twist-rate rifling.
Barnes also shoots Nosler bullets, contrary to most highpower and service rifle shooters who use Sierra projectiles and think anything that comes in something other than a green box won’t shoot. His 600-yard load is built with Vihtavouri N140 powder under an 80-grain Nosler bullet, loaded into surplus Lake City brass and initiated with a CCI primer. For the short lines (200 and 300 yards) he shoots commercially loaded ammo with 75-grain Hornady bullets.
Three other FHRPC members are distinguished riflemen, including Dave Brantner, Ron Schwenninger and Dave Thompson. Brantner became a distinguished rifleman in 1982. Schwenninger became distinguished in 1992. Thompson became distinguished in 2003. Prestigious badges are serially numbered and awarded to distinguished shooters as they are earned. Thompson’s badge number is 1657. Barnes’ badge number is 1675. So, nation wide, only 17 civilian shooters earned the distinguished badge in the nine-month period between 2003 and 2004. Military competitors are numbered separately.
The FHRPC also has two distinguished pistol shots. Joe Lechliter earned the United States Army distinguished pistol shot badge in 1984. Jack Snyder earned the United States Air Force distinguished pistol shot badge in 1999. Both Lechliter and Snyder earned the military badges as reservists.
Anyone who has participated in LEG matches, either rifle or pistol, knows there are no easy LEG points.

DOWELL PLACES IN PRESIDENT’S 100 WITH PISTOL
On Sunday, July 18, John Dowell fired a score of 359-3X to place in the President’s Pistol Match at Camp Perry, Ohio. The top 100 competitors in this match are awarded the coveted President’s 100 medal. Dowell finished in 50th place out of a field of 566 shooters.
The President’s Pistol Match consists of 40 shots for record, with no sighter shots. 20 slow-fire shots are fired at 50 yards in two 10-shot strings, with 10 minutes to fire each string. 10 timed-fire shots are fired at 25 yards in two 5-shot strings, with 20 seconds to fire each string. Finally, 10 rapid-fire shots are fired at 25 yards in two 5-shot strings, with only 10 seconds to fire each string.
Dowell fired a 9-mm semi-auto pistol, equivalent to the United States military M9 sidearm. All pistols used in the President’s 100 must be the M9, the 45-caliber M1911, or the 45-caliber M1911A1, or commercially available equivalents of the government issued pistols. These pistols must also fire full power, full metal jacket, military ammunition or the commercial equivalent. No optical sights or reduced power target ammunition are allowed.
The top three spots in the 2004 President’s Pistol Match were won by USMC SSGT Michael Lawson, Darius Young, and USAR SSG James Henderson. Lawson fired a score of 387-11X to finish in first place. Young’s score of 380-16X took second place. Henderson placed third with a score of 379-12X.
Rounding out the top 100 was Gary Spear, with a score of 351-7X. Only 8 points separated Dowell’s 50th place score from Spear’s 100th place score. The competition is tough. One slip, one moment of distraction, and you are out of the President’s 100.
Congratulations John Dowell on a fine performance in the 2004 President’s Pistol Match.

MEMBERSHIP SURVEY SHOWS
INDOOR RANGE & MORNINGSIDE RANGE SAFETY
ARE TOP CONCERNS
Membership survey results, using data collected in conjunction with annual dues payments, show the leading contenders for club development projects are an indoor shooting range and safety improvements at the Morningside Drive rifle range.
The survey described nine candidate development projects, and included space for members to offer other projects. The candidate projects included (1) action pistol range, (2) air gun range, (3) Morningside Drive club house improvements, (4) environmental fund, (5) HVAC (heating, ventilating, air conditioning) for the Morningside Drive rifle range, (6) indoor range, (7) land acquisition, (8) safety improvements at the Morningside Drive rifle range, and (9) shotgun range.
Members were asked to select first, second and third choices from the list of development projects. When compiling the survey results, first choices were given three points. Second choices were given two points. Third choices were given one point. The total points given to a project are an indication of project desirability to the membership at large.
The survey results are shown in the following bar graph. The length of a project bar shows the total points, or desirability, of a project. We were hoping to get sufficient spread in the point totals to clearly rank the projects. Survey results show two projects grouped together at the top with nearly identical points, followed by three projects in a second group.
The two most desirable projects are (1) an indoor shooting range, with 236 points, and (2) safety improvements at the Morningside Drive rifle range, with 223 points.
Three projects formed a second group, with (3) land acquisition earning 200 points, (4) Morningside Drive club house improvements earning 195 points, and (5) the shotgun range earning 190 points. Our club membership roster includes a number of lawyers. It is interesting that all our legal minded members picked land acquisition as their first choice. There is probably a message here for us to consider.
The last of the leading contenders was (6) the action pistol range, earning 153 points.
Not all of our members participated in the survey. Some did not fill out the survey form. Others filled it out in a manner that made it impossible for us to identify their first, second and third choices. We now have 382 members. Each member could distribute six points with their first, second and third choices. So, the total points available is 2292 points (382 members times 6 points per member). The actual number of points is 1343, or 59% of the total available points. Some may now argue that the survey is inconclusive.
Numerous “other” ideas and comments were included on the survey forms. “Other” ideas accumulated 19 points. The “other“ ideas included (1) better toilet facilities, (2) potable water supplies, (3) improved range access with road treatments and snow removal, (4) cowboy action range, (5) youth programs, and (6) noise abatement. Several comments were made about the poor condition of the Morningside entrance road. Your Executive Committee is working this issue for near-term improvement.

GET OUT THERE AND VOTE
There’s a big election coming this fall. If you haven’t registered to vote, get registered. We have enjoyed four years of freedom from assaults on our Second Amendment right to keep and bear arms. Let’s have four more. The choice is clear. If two of the most liberal Senators in the United States make it to the White House, the eight years under Slick Willy’s reign will seem like a walk in the park.
It is unfortunate that our Democratic Party panders to the far left and has become the party of gun control. Our Democratic Party hasn’t got the message yet. It’s been delivered. After Slick Willy lost control of the House and Senate in 1994, after Al Gore lost the election in 2000, and after Cas Taylor lost the election in 2002, you would think the message had been received. But it hasn’t. Kerry, Edwards, Feinstein, Schumer, Kennedy, McCarthy, Biden, Mikulski, Sarbanes – they all vote against your gun rights.
