A Brief History of the 49th
The club started in 1945 as the 49th Warwicks
Home Guard Old Comrades Association shooting
on Military ranges and .22 rifle at Thorpe Street
Range. The club has developed over the years
bringing about a change of name and move to it’s
present home and own range, Norton Baths,
Saltley.
The club took over the lease on the building,
originally a public washing baths, about 30 years
ago. The work converting the building to heated
clubroom and two ranges was carried out by
members.
Over the years the club’s names has been carried
into Europe, USA and even Russia by members as
part of Great Britain teams and club teams. The
trophy wall bears testimony to this.
