The Patriots Shooting Team provides an opportunity for active duty and veteran service members representing Soldiers, Sailors, Marines, and Airmen from across the nation to come together and compete in national marksmanship and shooting competitions.
AFF Patriots Shooting team celebrated its second full year of competitions during our 2018 season by sponsoring 10 veteran shooters for a long range target competitions around the northwest. This year, we have expanded our team by several members and our reach to regional and national competitions. In 2019, AFF will be supporting multiple 6-man teams of veteran and active duty marksmen, including former Army Ranger and Marine Recon snipers. Competitions are held nationwide and feature different terrains, moving targets and obstacle courses.
Our veteran shooters also participate in mixed gun, trap and sporting skeet shooting events as a team and work to support community of events that bring veterans and their allies together for live music, camping and other social occasions.

“In addition to being a lot of fun, the shootout was an awesome chance to get together with other veterans, to be able to shoot with them and then later, have a place to talk with guys that have had similar experiences to mine and can relate. It was great to meet other local vets that live in the area, people I had no idea were right down the road and to start to build a support network.”
