New England's Best Machine Gun Shoot

The Hillsborough County Republican Committee (HCRC) proudly organizes the Annual Machine Gun Shoot, one of New England's most exciting pro-Second Amendment events in the "Live Free or Die" state of New Hampshire.

With 70 voting members and strong leadership under Chairman Danielle Pray, we unite patriots, veterans, families, and firearm enthusiasts across Hillsborough County. The Annual Machine Gun Shoot is our signature fundraiser and celebration.

What started with roughly 60 attendees has grown to over 200 participants. It's a safe, family-friendly showcase of firearm freedoms, with range oversight, assistance for new shooters, and a clear message: our rights aren't up for debate.
