Home Courses of Fire Qualification Awards FAQs

Courses of Fire/Qualifications

Discipline-specific standards are listed with each course of fire. If specific exceptions are not made, the official NRA Rules apply. Shooters who are not familiar with shooting terms – targets, equipment, positions, scoring procedures, etc. – should attend an NRA Basic Firearm Training Course and obtain a copy of the appropriate rule book for a greater understanding of the discipline before firing for qualification.
