ex-Beals. Estimate $750 - 1,000. Dismayed by the lack of marksmanship shown by their troops, Union veterans Col. William C. Church and Gen. George Wingate formed the National Rifle Association in 1871. The primary goal of the association would be to
"promote and encourage rifle shooting on a scientific basis," according to a magazine editorial written by Church.After being granted a charter by the state of New York on November 17, 1871, the NRA was founded. Civil War Gen. Ambrose Burnside, who
was also the former governor of Rhode Island and a U.S. Senator, became the fledgling NRA's first president.An important facet of the NRA's creation was the development of a practice ground. In 1872, with financial help from New York state, a site on
Long Island, the Creed Farm, was purchased for the purpose of building a rifle range. Named Creedmoor, the range opened a year later, and it was there that the first annual matches were held. (Image1)
