do they still have parlor shoots?

schutzen I believe is what they called it. anyone know if they still have meets or if rifles are still made for indoor shooting in pubs?

The German-American Marksmanship Club is right around the corner from where I used to work, and just down the street from a racing club member's house.

I looked at it every time I drove by but never stopped in.

Their website seems to be more social.

I think indoor target shooting in Germany pretty much came back with air rifles after the war and the 4mm Zimmerstutzen kind of died out. I did find mention of a 4mm Anschutz conversion so you could shoot your 50 metre .22 indoors.

most likely due to us stripping them of all weapons and destroying all their factories in ww2.
I know they make the best air guns in the world.
would be nice to find real classic 4mm or smaller parlor meets in the usa, where shooters shoot classic indoor pub shoots.
