The Appleseed Program is designed to take you from simply being a rifle owner to being Rifleman. All throughout American history, the Rifleman has been defined as a marksman of hitting targets from 500 yards away. This 500-yard range is traditionally known rifleman's quarter-mile." A rifleman can hit just about any target he can see. Learn the “Six steps to firing the shot.” Learn correct firing positions and proper sling use.
Hear some little-known Revolutionary War history and reaffirm your heritage.
Make America a better place.
