NRA Regional Rule Change

[kraigwy]

Below is the propose rule change for conducting Regional and Sectional NRA matches. The rule basically will eliminate any Regional with less then 12 competitors (8 for the Sectionals).

What this means is, if you applied for a Regional one year, and you had less then 12 competitors, you would not be allowed to have a regional the next year.

Its my believe that these rule discriminate against smaller communities where we are lucky to have 12 shooters.

Please write or call the NRA and voice your opposition to these rule changes, giving us, who live in low population areas the same abilities to fire in Regionals as larger population centers.

Forward this to your respective state assigns.

Thanks.
