Bone Creek Gun Club is hosting a rifle & handgun USPSA style night shoot Saturday Jan 14th. Shooters will contest three handgun stages then shoot modified versions of those stages with rifles.
BCGC is 15 miles north of Pittsburg, KS on Hwy 69. 1 1/2 hours NE of Tulsa, 2 hours north of Fayettville, 2 hours south of KC.
TIMELINE:
2:00 PM stage set up
4:00 PM registration opens
5:00 PM registration closes
5:15 PM safety briefing & prize drawing
5:30 PM match begins
10:00 PM match ends
10:30 PM Match tear down complete & awards ceremony.
MATCH INTENT: Test equipment realistically used for home defense, self defense or law enforcement in challenging low light conditions.
WHO CAN SHOOT: We try very hard to keep our matches beginner friendly BUT running around in the dark with a loaded gun can be dangerous. Anyone contemplating this match should either be an experienced competition shooter, Law enforcement or Military with a background of firearms training. You will be required to shoot around walls, through windows, under & over barriers plus open doors with a loaded gun.
PRIZES: Johns Sports Center (our LGS) is providing gift certificates and we are working with other area gun stores for additional prizes to be awarded by drawing. Trophies will be awarded in each division (Handgun handheld, Handgun weapon mounted, Rifle and Overall).
STAGE BASICS: Shooters will engage targets from routine and unusual positions around barricades and through shooting ports. Distances vary from three to thirty yards.
ROUND COUNT: Stages will require 30+ rounds each with a total of about 100 rounds for each firearm. There will be no required reloads.
EQUIPMENT: Handguns will have two divisions (weapon mounted lights and handheld). All rifles/carbines will compete in a single category. All firearms must be centerfire. Optics, white light, night vision and lasers are allowed. Legally owned or duty full auto and suppressors may be used. Handgun magazines must conform to USPSA Limited requirements (140mm long or approx 20 rounds of 9mm).
STARTING POSITION: All stages will begin with the handgun holstered, those lacking a holster may start at the two handed low ready with all safeties engaged and an empty chamber. All rifle stages will begin loaded with safety engaged at the low ready.
SAFETY: All USPSA safety rules will be followed. All weapons will be kept cold until on the firing line. Handguns must be holstered or cased and rifles must have a visible chamber flag or be cased until instructed to load.
SCORING: USPSA scoring rules will be in effect including minor and major power factor scoring.
ENTRY: $20 to shoot. Pre-register by emailing name, USPSA number (if a member), phone number, email, handgun division & power factor/caliber and rifle power factor/caliber then pay at the match (see example below). Please bring exact change. Make checks payable to Bone Creek Gun Club. On site registrations will be allowed but pre-registering will help eliminate delays.

WEATHER: Cold or a little snow on the ground will not affect the match. Rain, ice or unsafe driving conditions will postpone the match to Jan 21st. The range is on a dirt road making access in heavy snow difficult. If in doubt call Roger Lomshek six two zero-249-0037.
RANGE CONDITIONS: If you need it bring it. Temps have been in the teens at prior matches. Stars and moon will be the only light. Besides a tactical light bring a simple headlight for administrative work. If you want anything to drink or eat bring it.
