Mark your calendar to join us Saturday, August 15, 2026,
for the 14th Top Cop Challenge honoring all our
Veteran’s & First Responder’s and to celebrate
America’s 25th birthday.
Entries for the 14th Annual Top Cop Challenge being held Saturday, August 15th are now being accepted.
Number of entries are again capped to no more than 30 individual competitors’ and/or 15-2 person teams, and restricted entries to no more than 4 individuals or 2 teams from the same LE agency, i.e. Sheriff’s Office, Police Department, District Attorney’s Office, Probation Department, CDCR, etc., so don’t delay and risk missing out..
Top Cop 2026 is again a 3 gun challenge using your duty pistol, patrol rifle and shotgun, and yes, we’ve again added new steel to this year’s competition, so if you thought 2025 was a challenge, wait for this year. Reminder: If you do not have a patrol rifle and/or shotgun, we will provide an AR style rifle and/or a Remington 870 shotgun or equivalent for you.
Remember, the stakes are high, 1st, 2nd and 3rd place individual and team winners will be awarded a total of $12,000.00 in the form of grants/donations made on their and their agencies behalf to the veteran and/or first responder organization of their choosing, it’s a win-win for all, and as always, the 1st Place Individual winner will be going home with a new gun.
Any questions, please do not hesitate e-mailing or calling.
Hope to see you August 15th and please pass this information on to your comrades.
