| Introduction
We are an organization
running a league system for Small-bore target shooters using
approved and supervised ranges belonging to clubs that are
registered with The National Small-bore Rifle Association
or the National Association of their country. The firearms
used must be licensed by the Police and conform to N.S.R.A.
regulations or to UIT rules and regulations.
To the casual visitor,
Our sport is more stringently supervised than any other sport
and always has been. All clubs have a very strict sequence
of procedures before a person can become full member. This
involves a six-month probation period during which time the
applicant is expected to make regular appearances, show responsibility
and awareness.
Before that person
is allowed to use the ranges they must attend a training program
unless they can produces evidence of competence from another
recognized club then the training program may not be necessary.
A person may not own or purchase a firearm unless they can
prove their club membership and that they have been granted
a Firearms Certificate from the Police Force of their residential
address. Most clubs however have some firearms that may be
used by beginners under supervision. Jackets, slings, gloves
and other bits and pieces are also available. All clubs welcome
interested visitors by prior arrangement, a contact telephone
number is usually obtainable from your local Police station
or the National Small-bore Rifle Association or indeed The
National Association of your Country.
