Handgun Skills Course: Sunday 2nd March

This event aims to provide attendees with specific techniques to take part in Long Barrelled Pistol and Revolver events in the UK and specific pistol shooting competitions overseas. The day will involve both classroom and practical range work with expert coaching from National and International level shooters

Entry Fee: TBC (40% discount off entry fee for those that are under 25 years old on the day of the Event)

Firearms & Ammunition: As LBP and LBRs cannot be loaned, you are required to bring your personal LBP, LBR or airsoft/ air pistol if you own one. There will be NRA Air Revolvers available to use for students who do not possess a suitable firearm

Entry Requirement:

  • Shooter Certification Card (SCC): Each civilian shooting on a MoD or NRA range has to carry a SCC issued by the chairman of a club of which they are a member and which is affiliated to the NRA. Attendees MUST be in possession of their SCC when shooting on NRA ranges. For our Skills Courses you are only required to have a valid SCC, it does not need to contain the type of firearm you will be using

  • This event is open to members of Home Office Approved Clubs (HOAC) who are not prohibited under section 21 of the Firearms Act (The NRA is the largest HOAC in the UK). Non-NRA members are welcome, but are required to pay the Non-Member Fee

  • On the first day of the event you must be aged 14 or over (please contact the event Co-ordinator before entering if this is not the case)

Shooter Certification Card (SCC) Assessment: If you are an NRA Member and wish to add "Short Range Pistol" to your SCC you can undertake an assessment during the event. There is no additional fee, but you will need to advise us when booking that you would like to do the assessment. Non-Members can take the same assessment, and will be presented with a certificate of attendance. Your Club Chairman may then decide to authorise “Short Range Pistol” to be added to your SCC
