Friends of NRA: The 2023 FNRA event is set for April 29^th, 2023 at the Gila County fairgrounds. Event tickets and other info about the event are available at the range office.

Visit the range office and see Chuck for more ways to support this event. There is a raffle going on right now put on by the FNRA committee for a Century Arms AK47, only 150 tickets available for $20 each. The winner will be drawn on March 5^th 2023.
