East Petersburg Sportsman’s Association

Education Committee

The Education Committee is announcing a Black Rifle Care and Maintenance seminar on Saturday, May 11, 2024, from 8:00–12:00AM at the Clubhouse. This program is presented by Michael Payne, a retired US Army Special Forces operator and instructor. The seminar provides basic operator awareness in the care and maintenance of a 5.56mm or .223 caliber black rifle (AR-15 style semi-automatic, but not necessarily black, rifle). Attendees should bring a rifle, one (1) empty magazine, and owner’s manual. You may also bring basic tools (e.g., a takedown pin punch) and cleaning materials, if desired. 

*** No live ammunition is allowed in the classroom during this time. ***

The emphasis of this class is on basic care and maintenance of the rifle. Topics for the Seminar are: 

  • Safety and Mindset
  • Orientation to Basic Rifle Components 
  • Operator-Level Disassembly
  • Inspection, Cleaning, and Maintenance
  • Operator-Level Assembly and Functions Check.

Other areas of discussion include:

  • Basic Principles of Operation
  • Selection/Use of Cleaning Materials, Solvents, and Lubricants
  • Importance of Maintenance and Records
  • Considerations for Repair/Replacement Parts
  • Catastrophic Failure Case Study

There is no fee, but a donation to the club is greatly appreciated. The class is open to all club members. Attendance is limited to the first 15 people registered. To register, please contact Frank Ribaudo at [email protected]
