Tactical Rifle Qualification
This qualification program will introduce you to the action shooting sports using modern, general purpose semi-automatic rifles. You can develop some of the skills necessary to participate in action shooting events such as the NRA America's Rifle Match and 3-gun Matches. You will learn how to safely fire your rifle at multiple targets while moving from various shooting positions. The requirements in the ratings increase in stages to help new shooters develop the strength and endurance necessary to complete a full course of fire.

Persons with physical disabilities are welcome to participate in the Marksmanship Qualification Program. You may use a nontraditional, adaptive shooting position unique to you.
Shooters acquire the large discipline patch at the onset of the profram and as each rating is earned, they are entitled to all of the corresponding awards for the rating. Each rating level has a skill rocker, medal, and certificate award that recognizes and highlights the achievement.
The courses of fire in the qualification program are designed to take shooters from beginning skill levels (Pro-Marksman, Marksman) through intermediate levels (Marksman 1st Class, Sharpshooter, Expert) up to a nationally recognized skill level -- Distinguished Expert -- the pinnacle of the program.
By the time a shooter completes the Distinguished Expert rating,
he or she has attained a proficiency level paralleling that of a competitively classified Sharpshooter.
