The Rifle Range site has social significance, providing recreation for the community, a place to meet and interact and also provide some competitive sport. All this contributes to strengthening the ties of a local community, particularly with the voluntary labour given to establish the facility.
The Nyabing Rifle Club was formed in August 1912 and the Rifle Range was opened in 1915. It was formed by Ernie Gaby, and the community had busy bees to clear and prepare the range.
