Our Goals:
The Independent Rifle Association (TIRA) is committed to firearms education, survival training, and community resilience. Unlike politically affiliated organizations, TIRA is strictly non-political, ensuring that training, advocacy, and preparedness remain accessible and inclusive.
✔ Firearms & Tactical Proficiency – From beginner to expert, we provide structured marksmanship training, drills, and competitions based on U.S. Army shooting tables.
✔ Medical Preparedness – Trauma response, first aid, and field medicine are critical components of self-reliance. TIRA provides access to certified instructors and real-world medical training.
✔ Survival & Disaster Readiness – Whether it's wilderness survival, home defense, or disaster logistics, TIRA equips members with the knowledge and skills needed to handle crises.
✔ Mutual Aid & Community Strength – We foster local and national chapters, promoting collaboration, training groups, and resource sharing to strengthen communities against external threats.
✔ Competitions & Events – TIRA hosts national and local shooting competitions, survival challenges, and skill-building events to encourage continuous improvement and camaraderie.
✔ A Culture of Growth & Education – We believe that knowledge is power. Our digital library, private forums, and exclusive training content ensure that every member has access to cutting-edge tactics and techniques.
