Real Avid, the leader in DIY for Guns®, is showing its support of this year's National Shooting Sports Month through the company's Range Ready™ educational platform.

National Shooting Sports Month is an August-long industry initiative to encourage target shooting, promote safe and responsible firearm use, welcome new shooters, and to encourage experienced shooters to mentor beginners in the shooting sports.

Range Ready™ is all about a positive mindset and deliberate goal setting to promote success at the range. It begins with knowing your equipment, ensuring your equipment is maintained for peak performance, and having the essential gear before you reach the shooting line.

This attitude carries forward with safety first and foremost. Here, beginners learn the cardinal rules of safe firearm handling while seasoned shooters continue to practice safe range participation both for themselves and for the benefit of beginner observers.

With gear preparation and a safety-first mindset established, the Range Ready™ philosophy extends to deliberate, goal-oriented practice. This is key to successful and product time spent on the range — know what you want to achieve and work with focus to achieve that objective.

The 10th anniversary National Shooting Sports Month runs through August, but the benefits can last a lifetime.

In support of National Shooting Sports Month and Real Avid's Range Ready™ program, world champion shooter Doug Koenig is hosting a premium educational video series on the Real Avid YouTube channel. Doug applies his years of practical experience as a competitive and recreational shooter and hunter to help viewers achieve personal success and confidence on the range — confidence that begins before the first shot.
