Target Practice and Marksmanship Training Support Act
4/7/2025, 3:22 PM
Summary of Bill S 593
The Target Practice and Marksmanship Training Support Act, also known as Bill 115 s 593, is a piece of legislation introduced in the United States Congress. The main purpose of this bill is to support and promote target practice and marksmanship training for law-abiding citizens.
The bill aims to achieve this goal by making it easier for states to use funds from the Pittman-Robertson Wildlife Restoration Act for the development and maintenance of shooting ranges. This act currently provides funding for wildlife conservation efforts, but the Target Practice and Marksmanship Training Support Act would expand the allowable uses of these funds to include the construction and improvement of shooting ranges.
Additionally, the bill would also encourage federal land management agencies to cooperate with state and local authorities to maintain and improve shooting ranges on public lands. This would help ensure that there are adequate facilities available for individuals to engage in target practice and marksmanship training. Overall, the Target Practice and Marksmanship Training Support Act is aimed at promoting responsible gun ownership and providing opportunities for individuals to improve their marksmanship skills in a safe and controlled environment. It is a bipartisan effort to support the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding citizens while also promoting safety and proficiency in firearms use.
