Air Gun Competition Centers
Stop By Our Permanent Air Gun Competition Centers…
The Civilian Marksmanship Program maintains two permanent Air Gun Competition Centers: the Gary Anderson CMP Competition Center in Camp Perry, Ohio, and the Judith Legerski CMP Competition Center in Anniston, Alabama. CMP recently announced the MidwayUSA Foundation donation of the Jefferson Building in Columbia, Missouri, which will be transformed into a CMP Competition Center focused on indoor smallbore and air rifle. Plans are ongoing for the facility and renovations are expected to begin in 2024.
Both of these world-class air rifle and air pistol training and competition facilities feature state-of-the-art electronic targets at each of their 80 firing points. All shots are instantly displayed on monitors beside each shooter and on display screens visible to spectators in the center area of the range. The facilities also feature common areas with classrooms, offices, restrooms and a foyer.
Laser Shot Simulator. CMP has purchased two Laser Shot Simulators for the Gary Anderson CMP Competition Center in Ohio. These systems are available for the public to use anytime the CMP Competition Center is open. Open Tuesday from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. (EST). The range will also be open by appointment only – Monday through Thursday (9am-3pm). We are closed on Fridays. For questions or to make an appointment, please call Catherine at (419) 635-2141, ext. 704.

… Or Let Our Mobile Range Come to You!
The range is comprised of 100 electronic Kongsberg OpticScore targets, and because of its versatile design, it can be configured using all 100, or broken down into different sized sets of targets; typically in sets of 40. Its ability to adapt to different areas of space gives the range the flexibility to be used in a variety of settings, including convention centers, high school gymnasiums, field houses, etc. Keep in mind we require at least 50′ of space for target, athlete, and spectators.
Some features of our LED target system are black and white monitors next to the shooter so they are able to see each shot after it’s fired, a lift system for 3-position shooting, and five projectors with 120″ screens to show the scores. The program is run by a central computer system constructed in the middle of the range, which operates the targets, lifts, results and views.
