Bill to Encourage Rifle Practice Across Citizens and Guards
A proposed measure aims to promote marksmanship among United States citizens and National Guard members with a $1,000,000 annual authorization. It would create clubs, galleries, and ranges, open to civilians from age fifteen, and provide arms and ammunition to schools and clubs while elevating nationwide rifle proficiency for future war readiness.
