The NSRA regards its foundation as being in 1901, although it was known as the Society of Working Men’s Rifle Clubs from 1901 to 1903, and the Society of Miniature Rifle Clubs from 1903 to 1947. A summary of this history appears in this section of the site, together with information about the challenge trophies held by the NSRA and the memorabilia sold or awarded over the period of its existence.
