Exciting things are happening in preparation for the 2005 3-Gun Nationals scheduled for October 13-16 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
We’ve contracted with The Riviera to act as our local match hotel this year. This has turned out to be a great deal all the way around. As luck would have it, the PGA Tour is scheduled concurrently with our match, so rooms will be scarce for that weekend. In addition, we’ve secured a great rate for our members, which includes breakfast each morning for up to two guests per room. The room rate will be $75 a night Sun/Thurs and $85 a night Fri/Sat.
To make reservations, you may call the Riviera directly at 800-634-6753. Just be sure to tell them you’re coming in for the United States Practical Shooting Association/3-Gun Nationals and give them the following code: USPSA-05 to qualify for the special rates/breakfast deal. Yes, that is a code and yes, they will need the entire thing to give you the goods. Due to the high demand for rooms at this time, we were only able to get a limited number of rooms at this rate for that weekend, so make your reservations early.
We will also be posting a hyperlink here for those interested in making their reservations online as soon as the events coordinator at the hotel gets that to me.
In addition, the match schedule has been released and is as follows:
Thursday October 13th

This 12-stage, 275+ round match will be an exciting mixture of 3 rifle, 3 pistol, 3 shotgun, and 3 multi-gun stages you won’t want to miss. Entries are limited to the first 250 competitors on a first-come, first-serve basis and we’re already a third of the way full as of this writing.
