    Keanu is a badass

    Is there any facilities/training available like this in NZ?

    Pretty much any range that shoots 3Gun. Targets are slightly different though, not torso shaped as US scoring includes A's in headshots.



    Rotorua Pistol Club range. 3Gun in NZ is a bit different though, stages are shot exclusively with 1 type of firearm, however multi-gun is starting to appear. There's a fab comp at Warkworth called Man On Man

    Warkworth Multigun - Precision Shooter

    which is immense fun to shoot !

    I have to say depending on scoring he's pretty handy.
    The targets were pretty close tho.

    Not like you saw in the video. You can't shoot an E Cat firearm without an E endorsement in the 1st place.

    Understand that endorsements would need to be correct, I meant more the 3gun style of shooting? Is it big in NZ? Is there somewhere in/around Auckland one could go to train and get involved?

    Has been around a while in NZ.
    It and it's variants are getting more popular in NZ.

    It is my favorite type of range shooting by far.


    I have only shot all the diciplines in stages. Don't think we are allowed have a loaded pistol in the holster while moving with a long gun.
    Someone will be able to correct me if I am wrong.

    Lookout Agent Smith,
    Did anyone else cringe when he flipped the rifle behind his back? Sure the safety was on but wouldn't wanna be the cameraman...
    If only we all were actors and got paid to work out at the gym and practice shooting

    APC don't do 3Gun on their range, just pistol and pistol carbine. There's a King of Carbine match in Rotorua next weekend, at Rotorua Pistol Club.



    US rules for 3Gun/multigun are a bit looser than ours. You won't be slinging an AR on your back and running to shoot the baddie in the head like Keeanu
