REVERE’S RIDERS
Ohio Joins Revere’s Riders
Revere’s Riders is a 501C3 non-profit. They are affiliated with the Civilian Marksmanship Program, National Rifle Association, and NV Firearms Coalition. Over a hundred volunteers across the nation actively promote traditional marksmanship, American history, and civic engagement.
Revere’s Riders primary goal is to educate the general public in marksmanship. This includes educating the general public on pro-firearms issues, promoting the safe and responsible use of all firearms and range equipment and teaching the safe enjoyment of all areas of shooting sports.
The branch of Revere’s Riders that focuses on history is called Revere’s Messengers. From their website: We believe in the importance of the history that makes up our shared Heritage as Americans. These stories encompass the birth of our country and the growth of the American ideals of Liberty, Responsibility, and Independence.at events hosted by Revere’s Messengers, you will hear true tales of those who founded this country, of their struggles and sacrifices in the American Revolution and beyond.
What is civic engagement? For Revere’s Riders it is the encouragement of the general public to become involved in the political process and the issues that affect all of us.
Upcoming Events (open to the public):
Intermediate Pistol: May 30 & 31, 2026
Prerequisites: This course has no formal prerequisites, but we recommend that you attend our Basic Pistol offering prior to joining us for this event. Intermediate Pistol is a fast-paced program covering a lot of instructional points. The course is designed to improve marksmanship fundamentals for our attendees. We suggest that you should have taken some type of entry-level class already and you should already be familiar with the safe handling and operation of your pistol. If you are totally new to firearms/pistols, you may be better served to attend our Basic Pistol course which has a slower pace.
Estimated Ammunition Required: About 300 rounds per day.
Pistol Requirements: You will need a safe semi-automatic pistol with a minimum of two (2) functioning magazines of ten or more round capacity (bringing additional magazines recommended), to fully participate in this course. Pistols should be of a modern, drop safe design.
Required Equipment:
- at least two magazines for your pistol
- a case for your pistol
- a way to take notes
- hearing protection
- eye protection
- plenty of your preferred method of hydration (both plain water and something to replace electrolytes you will lose via sweating is ideal)
- clothing appropriate for the weather (loose fitting clothing, especially around the neck, is discouraged as hot brass can lodge against the skin and cause a burn)
- lunch (there are no restaurants sufficiently close to the range)
We will not be drawing from the holster in this class, and we will run a “cold range.” You will not need a holster to participate in class activities.
