CARBINE

CARBINE SERIES

Carbine I, Carbine Operator, Carbine Operator II, and Advanced Carbine Operator

MAST is partnered with a private range on over 200 acres for a full immersion tactical rifle class. The range is located on a genuine working Texas cattle ranch and is backed up to the Brazos river. Perfect setting for a picturesque “bug out” camping weekend under the stars while enjoying the camaraderie of fellow shooters.
