About the Benton Gun Club
The Benton Gun Club, Inc. is a private, members only, member owned non-profit
organization. Match fees are typically $5 or $10 and all matches are open to the public. We
have 112 acres of land approximately 5 miles east of Benton, with 8 shooting ranges. There
are 13 shooting disciplines with separate competitive matches.
Whether you are an average plinker or a hard core competitive shooter you will find that our
range suits all of your needs. All of our matches are open to the public so you do not need
to be a member to see and shoot on our range but we would love to have you join.
Hope to see you at the range. Until then please shoot safely and help our sport grow and
ask a friend to come along.
How To Join
In order to join the Benton Gun Club you must attend one of our monthly meetings and fill
out an application. We meet on the second Monday of each month at 7:00 PM at the Econo
Lodge in Benton, AR (Exit 117, I-30). Annual membership fees are $75 ($60 if you are 65 or
older). If you join from September 1 to December 31, the membership fee is reduced to $30
($24 for seniors). All members pay a one-time range maintenance fee of $100. Our
Membership is a family membership that includes the member's spouse and children under
the age of 18. Existing members must pay their annual dues by the February club meeting
to avoid having to pay the $100 range maintenance fee. If you have question about joining
the club please contact one of the club officers.
Applicants must be 18 years of age, citizens of good repute and share the same goals of the
club. Applicants must also be a member of the NRA through the calendar year and be able
to show their membership card or have a copy of their NRA magazine that has their NRA
membership information on the front page. If you are not current member of the NRA you
may join through the club and receive a $10 discount on a one year membership to the NRA.
Acceptance of new members is the last order of business of every meeting. Prospective new
members will be asked to stand up and tell the club a little about themselves and why they
would like to join the Benton Gun Club. After all prospective new members have introduced
themselves they will be asked to leave the room while the Club votes on their acceptance or
denial of membership. Once your application has been approved at a club meeting, paid
your club dues of $75 and the $100 range maintenance fee, you must attend a mandatory
range safety orientation where your membership will become active and you will receive your
membership card and key to the range. As a new member you can shoot each one of our
matches for free the first time. Just tell the match director that you are a new member and
they will waive your match fee.
To find out when the next range safety orientation will be held, please contact James Squires
at 501-847-2147. Range safety orientation is usually given at the range on the Saturday
following the monthly meeting.
Once you have joined the club, we invite you to sign up for our Yahoo group (see below).
Join this group to receive an automated email reminder 24 hours before each event on our
Calendar. It is free to join, but you must have a Yahoo ID.
