About

Over the last 15 years, Maldon and District Air Rifle Club has become the premier air gun shooting club in the South East of England.

We are lucky to have a large and growing membership of plinkers, family's and tournament shooters alike. We also have one of the most successful shooting teams in the country today and they have won the UKAHFT team trophy for the past 10 years.

Some of our members travel considerable distances to attend and enjoy the clubs facilities and we are fortunate enough to have several ranges available. This means that we are able to cater for a whole range of shooting disciplines and this diversity in styles is what makes M.A.D unique.

We have monthly Hunter Field Target (HFT) competitions in our woodland and weekly shooting competitions on our meadow course. Our plinking ranges goes out to 70 and 50 yards respectively, for those who want to practice Field Target and long range shooting and our practice HFT course (set to UKAHFT specification) is always available to members.

For those that don't want to compete and just want to have a place to plink, we have an excellent practice area with ample space for more than 30 shooters and covered ranges for those inclement days.

On top of this we have a warm dry clubhouse, with free tea and coffee making facilities and there is a gas hob too for you to cook with. We have running water and the best Ladies and Gent's toilets around.

Members have access to the site 365 days a year, from dawn until dusk. With only an annual membership to pay, members pay no daily range fee's, however, there is a small charge for competitions. If you would like to visit the club we have a midweek shoot every Wednesday evening throughout the summer and the first Sunday of every month. If you'd like to initially visit at another time then simply give us a ring and we can arrange a visit at a time that suits.
