The 2026 Del Norte Gun Club Black Rifle fundraiser match presented by BMC Tactical

Del Norte Gun Club is proud to host the Black Rifle Charity Match on Saturday, September 26 in support of the Second Amendment and the organizations working to protect it here in New Mexico. This match raises funds for the New Mexico Shooting Sports Association (NMSSA) and the New Mexico Firearms Industry Association (NMFIA). Last year, thanks to the support of our shooters, volunteers, and sponsors, we raised nearly $20,000 to help those organizations continue their work.
The last legislative session saw one of the strongest pushes against the Second Amendment in recent years, and we expect those attacks to continue. Del Norte Black Rifle is one way our shooting community can come together to support the organizations that represent us at the Roundhouse and advocate for firearm owners across New Mexico. Whether you compete, volunteer, sponsor a stage, or donate a prize, every contribution helps support the organizations defending our rights here in New Mexico.
BMC Tactical returns this year as our Title Sponsor, with additional sponsors continuing to join the event. Prizes will be awarded by random draw and trophies will be presented to the top finishers in each division.
The main match will be held on Saturday, September 26. The staff match is scheduled for Friday, September 25, with stage setup taking place on Thursday, September 24.

Braced pistols are allowed. PCC's are also allowed but there will not be a PCC division - Just select the division you'd fit into. No steel core ammo will be allowed (ex. Green tip M855)
Volunteers Needed: The Black Rifle Charity Match is entirely volunteer supported, and additional help is needed this year. We will have dedicated Range Officers assigned to each stage to improve consistency and keep the match running safely and efficiently. Due to this change we need more volunteers than in previous years. Volunteers shoot the match at no cost.
