About organisation
The Perth Rifle Club and Fremantle Rifle Club were both founded in 1902. The Clubs merged in 2008. The club is affiliated with district, State and National organisations to provide members with opportunities for long range target shooting in a controlled and safe environment. The Club's collection consists of photographs and artefacts dating back to 1902. The artefacts include trophies, shields, pennants, member registers, minute books and historic firearms. The history of the Club and a few of the photographs in our collection can be found on our website (click "History" on the Club's website menu in addition to the sub menu "Kings and Queens Winners")
