The Nevada Air National Guard "High Rollers" held a ribbon cutting ceremony today for the new Modular Containerized Small Arms Training Set (MCSATS) facility. This facility is the first and only facility of its kind in the National Guard (Air and Army). It gives the majority of Nevada's 1,100 airmen easy access to a state-of-the-art indoor facility that gives the High Rollers an opportunity to hone their marksmanship skills. The 6,000 square-foot, 12-lane range features bullet traps to recover spent munitions. The facility is climate-controlled and provides scenario-based shooting situations for personnel to train and qualify annually, or in advance of a deployment. The Governor of the State of Nevada, Gov. Brian Sandoval, attended the ceremony, along with several other dignitaries and local Native Americans, who said prayers, blessed the land and attended the ceremony.
