The Polish Riflemen's Association, known as Związek Strzelecki (in the plural, Związki Strzeleckie), was an organization formed in great numbers prior to World War I. One of the better known associations, Strzelec (Rifleman), was a Polish paramilitary cultural and educational organization created in 1910 in Lwów as a legal front of the Związek Walki Czynnej (ZWC, Union of Active Struggle). It was somewhat reinstated in Poland in 1991, after the fall of communism.
