Long-Time Club Member and Treasurer Joe McFadden Has Passed

We are sorry to announce that Joe McFadden died Sunday, May 14th after a long illness.  Joe had recently taken a leave of absence as Treasurer but was still a frequent visitor at the club.  He participated in many of the club events, participating at "his speed" just to enjoy the joy of shooting sports.  If you attended any of our monthly membership meetings, he was THE donut guy, always passionate about making sure members had the best selection.  Many folks at our club did not know Joe was an avid shotgun shooter in the past and active at other clubs in the region.  He shot over 60,000 registered clays in skeet and was a Hall of Fame and multiple All-Star team member.  In addition to his duties on the Executive  Committee, Joe was always present at our annual Sight in Service, usually found checking in firearms.  A fundraising event in Joe McFadden's name has been set up to help him and his wife through this time.  If you are able and would like to contribute you can click HERE for a link.

Defensive Shotgun Workshop

Sunday, June 4, 2023, 8:00 am – 12:00 pm

This popular workshop is returning for the summer.  Many gun owners trust a shotgun as a home defense tool with good reason.  But few have the opportunity to practice or train with its use.  This workshop provides both, training under the guidance of instructors versed in defensive shotgun use and tactics and plenty of opportunities to practice with your shotgun and defensive encounters distances.  You will also be able to pattern buckshot at typical distances during a defensive in life in your home encounter to see what it looks like with your gun and your ammunition (hint, they are like snowflakes, and what you see on the internet will likely not be how your gun/ammunition combination performs).

Topics for the workshop include safety, setting up your shotgun for home defense use, different action types, use of different sighting systems, ammunition selection, multiple threats, and many other topics.  Your instructor crew includes graduates of a variety of related coursework including Tom Givens/Rangemaster Defensive Shotgun Instructor Course, Thunder Ranch, Gunsite Academy along with having a practical application of deploying shotguns in law enforcement.  We designed this course to increase the confidence of shooters who rely on this effective firearm; one that is safest and most effective in trained hands.  

 

The cost of the workshop is $40 for club members and $50 for guests.  To sign up contact will at info@fcgc.info or (909) 816-8821.
