NSSF Awards $435,000 in Grants to Shooting Ranges

(GunReports.com) -- In 2011, the National Shooting Sports Foundation, the trade associations for the firearms, ammunition, hunting and shooting sports industry, awarded $435,000 in grants to 22 ranges to develop programs that put more people on the firing line.

The NSSF Range Grant Program assists qualifying shooting ranges in their efforts to introduce newcomers, re-activate lapsed shooters, encourage active shooters to try another shooting discipline, and that promote the enjoyment of the shooting sports to people of all ages.

Projects such as physical improvements to facilities not essential to the operation of the range are not eligible for grants.

"We saw a lot of growth in the applications for range grants this year," said Melissa Schilling, NSSF manager of recruitment and retention. "We believe range operators nationwide are beginning to understand what a great opportunity this is to help get an idea that will be good for their business and the shooting sports off the ground."

NSSF received 64 proposals requesting $2.8 million in grants--an all-time high for the program. Launched in 2008, the NSSF Range Grant Program has awarded funding to 46 ranges totaling $1.17 million to date.

Schilling explained that a priority of program is to highlight "models of success," so that grant-assisted initiatives that have been successful at the piloting range can be adopted by other facilities to build more participation, customers and profits. Case studies of programs that have received funding in prior years are available for review at www.NSSF.org.

With the exception of two ranges in PA, no money has gone to ranges in northeast. I can not find a public range in VT that has a 1000 meters, nor even 500 meters.

I was browsing other web pages when I saw this site. Thank you for providing it here. The award prize is more than payday loans, and that is a huge amount! But it does not matter, it will surely help in developing programs that will accrue people on the firing line.

Let's get more people to the firing line and make sure they get safety and marksmanship training. Also teach them the history of the Revolutionary War which secured our rights so they can shoot! The NSSF and Project Appleseed should form a partnership so the shooters, both new and experienced shooters, receive both the training and the history lessons even if it will cost additional cash advance loans.
