Membership

Holyoke Revolver Club is located in Holyoke, not far from Mount Tom. It is in a secluded setting that is only minutes from the centers of Holyoke, Easthampton, Chicopee, Springfield and Westfield. We are a “Members Only” club, and all members receive an access card and gate key that permits virtually unlimited access to our facilities.

Our clubhouse has a 50 ft. indoor range, heated and ventilated, for all types of handgun shooting with any standard handgun ammunition. Outdoors we have a 25 yd. and 50 yd. range for pistol and smallbore rifle, as well as a 100 yd. rifle range for all calibers and loads. In concern for our neighbors, the outdoor ranges have some restrictions concerning hours and holidays, but the indoor range is available to our members 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, with the exception of scheduled club activities.

The Holyoke Revolver Club is very active in the promotion of the shooting sports, and various events are held regularly. We participate in the Western Mass. Pistol League, USRA Postal matches, intra and inter club postal matches, and many other types of competitions are held each year. We also have NRA Handgun Safety Courses, High Power Rifle and Ammunition Reloading clinics, Practical Shooting classes and a Junior Rifle Team.
