History and Property Enhancements
The Crawfordsville Gun Club was established in 1963 with the purpose of encouraging organized rifle, pistol, and shotgun shooting among citizens of the United States of America residing within our community. The Club strives to develop the knowledge of safe handling and proper care of firearms, as well as improved marksmanship in all the Club Members. To that end, the current property was developed to include an ATA style trap field, a 100 yd. rifle range, a 50 yd. rimfire range, a 10 yd. pistol bay, and a clubhouse. The Club continues to explore ways to update the property to include new ranges/pistol bays and to maintain the safety of the existing ranges/pistol bays.
