THIS MONTH...

Happy New Year! We hope you enjoyed the recent holiday season and its festivities and are ready to start a new year of promoting, protecting and preserving our Constitutional right to keep and bear arms!


Our guests this month will be some of the participants in one of most recent leagues created at the ISRA Range, the F-Class League. Tim Dalan, Jeff Gregorec, Terry Kreimeier and Pat Ventola are among those who have discovered a fun way to spend their Wednesday evenings at the range. They will explain what the F-Class includes and will give us some information on league/match participation and give us some tips on how to get started in the sport.

We send our congratulations to James C., the winner of last month's "winner must be present" monthly firearm drawing and now we are excited to start off this year's drawing. We have a S&W 380 Bodyguard pistol – wouldn't that be a nice addition to your collection? Join us at the January meeting and find out more about it. Remember, the winner must be present, an ISRA member, have a valid FOID and comply with all local, state and federal laws.


 

December 2011 -

Our December meeting was, as always, a very light and fun-filled meeting. It is our annual Show and Tell meeting and a lot of people brought their favorite firearm to show. more

 

 

 

 

 

Chairman's Comments -

The New Year is finally upon us and the weather makes it seem more like spring than winter. We have only had a few really cold days and really no snow to speak of, so it is really hard to imagine that it’s early January.

But, the start of the New Year brings out a lot of other things. The first event that I am preparing for is the Shot Show in Las Vegas which will be held January 16th thru 20th. It is a phenomenally large event. It literally takes days to go through the Show and, still, it is almost impossible to see everything. All of the firearm manufacturers are there as are the suppliers of hunting equipment, clothing, optics, air gun accessories, reloading supplies…I could go on forever.  more

Rest In Peace, Jack

On December 11, 2011, the ISRA was saddened by the loss one of its most dedicated volunteers, John "Jack" Cantillion. Jack was an integral part of daily operations at the ISRA Range and he will be missed by all.

Jack was a loving husband, father, a proud grandfather and a friend to so many of us. Please keep his family in your thoughts as they grieve during this time of great sorrow.

Thank you for your service; we'll miss you, Jack. Sempre Fi!
