We are taking a different approach to the indoor match this year – we are going to mimic a standard cowboy match as much as possible.
The Indoor Shoot is scheduled for Sunday, March 19th. We’ll shoot 3 or 4 stages depending on the number of people and time it takes to shoot them. This means the round count will be 40 pistol and 40 rifle. No shotguns or black powder are allowed.
RSVP requested but not required. If you don’t want to shoot, come out for the swap meet.
ADVANCE REGISTRATION for both the Indoor Match and Swap Meet is requested but NOT required. Come on out even if you didn’t preregister. We’re just trying to get an idea of how many people may show up for planning purposes.

Summary:
- Illowa Irregulars are holding an Indoor Match and Swap Meet, Sunday March 19, 2023.
a. The Indoor Match will mimic a traditional cowboy action shooting match using pistols and rifles only.
b. Only standard cowboy guns can be used – sorry, no black powder or shotguns.
c. 22’s are OK.
d. Holsters are permitted but not required – shooters may stage their pistols at every stage if they wish to do so. - The Match will be held on the 50’ Indoor Range (the range to the right), which is different from what’s been done in recent years.
- The Swap Meet is a go
a. Tables go quickly and are on a first come, first serve basis, so if you want one get there early.
b. Swap meet tables can be set up wherever the person wishes to set up.
i. However, if you want to be removed from the shooting noise you may want to set up on the 25 yd Indoor Range foyer.
c. Swap meet sales begin anytime the seller is ready to go. - Doors open at 8:00 a.m. with a Safety Review of our special indoor rules at about 9:45 a.m. – shooting will begin at 10:00 a.m.
a. Shooters can show up at any time during the day, even later in the morning if they wish, but we encourage you to be there for the 9:45 a.m. briefing so you can hear the rules review. - Miscellaneous
a. Chili will be served later in the morning. Coffee will be available.
b. COST: The cost to shoot is $5. There is no charge for the swap meet.
This worked well during our testing last weekend. Come on out an experience it for yourself!
