Shotgun Sports Mentorship Program

The "Shotgun Sports Mentorship Program" (SSMP) was designed as a way for Marines / Navy and other junior military members from the military services who may not have access to shotguns to come out and shoot skeet and trap. We match an experienced QSC shot-gunner one-on-one with an enlisted (E1-E4) military service-member. We provide the shotgun and the 50 rounds of ammunition so they can shoot two 25-round "games"; all they pay is $10 for the two games they shoot. In addition, we also offer any E-1 to E-4 a free, 2-year QSC membership!

This is a low cost means to experience the speed and thrill of shooting two shotgun sports while learning from experienced QSC members! 

Participation is easy:

  1. Visit the QSC clubhouse located half-way between the Fire Station and Weapons Training Battalion (MCB-4), on a weekend and obtain a free membership.
  2. While at the clubhouse sign-up for a Mentored Skeet and Trap Shoot – or send an email requesting an appointment to shoot skeet and trap to steve.austin@quanticoshootingclub.com.
  3. QSC will provide an experienced mentor to conduct orientation on skeet and trap fields safety, etiquette, target shooting advice – for free.
  4. The mentor will provide Marine / Navy person a sporting shotgun to use – for free.
  5. QSC will provide, while inventories allow, 50 rounds of shotgun ammunition, enough for 2 games to participating Marines and Navy or other military personnel – for free.
  6. Eligible personnel will pay just $10 each to cover the cost of targets used during the shoot.
