About Us

Born to Compete

 Est. 2023, the Pine State Pistoleros is Maine's Cowboy Mounted Shooting Association club.  A fast paced sport, based on both equestrian and target shooting skill that's fun for spectators!  Members of every ability are welcome, and we're always recruiting new participants.   There is a Men's Division, a Women's Division, and a Senior's Division, with Classes 1-6 in each of those divisions. There is also a Wrangler Class for those 11 and under.  

A Tradition of The Old West

Broken into divisions allowing youth, beginners, adults, and seniors the opportunity to compete, dressed in late 1800's period clothes.  Each stage of competition incorporates engaging targets (balloons) with blanks, in both technique and speed.  Two sets of 5-balloons are included in each course, and can include gates, barrels, and a rundown.  A run involves two single action revolvers, and upper level competition can include rifle, shot gun, or Cavalry runs.  Gun leather and cowboy/cowgirl dress can all be customized to each rider's taste (following CMSA rules), and add to the excitement!

Safety and Fun

Pre-1898 (and replicas of) single action six shooter revolvers are used with black powder filled .45LC caliber cartridges.  These blanks can break the balloons on course at approximately 15 feet.   Examples are: Colt Single Action Army or Bisley Model, Smith & Wesson Schofield, Russian, or Remington Models 1875 & 1890, their reproductions and Ruger Vaqueros, Bisleys or Montados.  LIVE ROUNDS are strictly prohibited at all events.  Wranglers shoot from the ground, in a stationary position only, although they do ride their course.
