Texas A&M University Pistol Team
About This Organization
- Abbreviation(s):
- Texas A&M Pistol Team
- Purpose:
- To promote shooting sports and gun safety by participating in intercollegiate pistol competitions, holding instructive shoots open to those with university affiliation, and supporting pre-college shooting. The Texas A&M Pistol Team yearly selects its members through open tryouts each fall. Members of the team train at least once weekly and compete on a national level. We shoot 0.22 LR (5.6x15R mm) caliber target pistols and 0.177 (4.5mm) caliber compressed air pistols. Matches are hosted by Texas A&M once per year and are attended by various other universities. The Team also travels each year to various matches hosted by competing universities, and each year the team competes nationally in the Intercollegiate Nationals.
