Pioneer Gun Club was formed in the far eastern area of Kansas City Missouri in 1940. The area was then rural countryside allowing the founding members to have a self-regulated place to safely fire their firearms for practice, relaxation and personal enjoyment. This same location is still in use with an indoor range and over 50 acres of woods and open space for use of the club members. Member’s only Managed Deer Bow hunting takes place every fall on this property in the Kansas City, city limits.

The Pioneer Gun Club acquired a 380 acre property in Johnson County Missouri in the 1980’s. On this property “the McBride range” named after an early forward thinking, avid shooter who deserved to be remembered. The ranges include a 100 yard and 200 yard Rifle ranges, a Shot Gun Trap range, several Pistol ranges and a walk through archery range. Members only Managed Deer and Turkey hunts also take place on this property every fall. Most every Rifle and Pistol discipline is accommodated on these ranges. The Pioneer Gun Club is still a private gun club managed and maintained by its members who come from literally every profession and age group. Members are expected to contribute toward the upkeep and management of the club as they are able.

The Pioneer Gun Club holds many competitions throughout the year that are open to members & their guests in the various Rifle and Pistol disciplines, we have an active youth group and host several Scout activities through the year.
