 NRA Action Pistol Distinguished Program
Purpose:
To recognize excellence in NRA Action Pistol Competition. The NRA Action Pistol Distinguished Program is similar to the programs for Conventional Pistol, High Power Rifle, Smallbore Rifle, and Police.
Eligibility:
a. No limitation on firearm used so long as it conforms to NRA Action Pistol Shooting rules.
b. Points toward the Distinguished Badge may only be earned at NRA State, Regionals and the National Championships.
c. Competitors may compete for points in only 2 State Championships, 1 Regional, and the National Championship in any calendar year (Jan 1-Dec 31).
d. Recognition for award of the Distinguished Badge is retroactive to 1985 for Open and 1998 for Metallic. Individuals may petition for this by providing official results from qualified tournaments. Burden of proof of qualifying scores is on the petitioner.
e. OPEN and METALLIC scores will be counted separately for medal purposes.
Course of Fire:
a. Aggregate match containing at least two of the following matches:
1. Practical Event (Rule 10.13)
2. Barricade Event (Rule 10.14)
3. Moving Target Event (mod) (Rule 10.15)
4. Falling Plate Event (Rule 10.16)
b. Minimum Qualifying Score: In order to earn eligibility for Distinguished Points, competitors must fire a minimum score equal to at least 95% of the match aggregate in OPEN and 85% in METALLIC. (e.g., in a 1920 point aggregate, the minimum score required to qualify would be 1824 in OPEN and 1632 in METALLIC).
Awards:
The NRA Action Pistol Distinguished Badge will be awarded to those individuals who earn a total of 30 points through unassisted individual competition in qualifying events. Credit Points will be awarded as follows:
a. 10 points to the highest scoring non-distinguished competitor who fires a qualifying score.
b: 7 points to next highest scoring 10% of non-distinguished competitors who fire a qualifying score.
c. 5 points to next highest scoring 15% of non-distinguished competitors who fire a qualifying score
d. Fractions of .5 and over will be resolved to the next higher whole number. Smaller fractions will not be considered.
The first time an individual earns Distinguished Points they will receive the NRA Action Pistol "Excellence in Competition" Medal and a certificate indicating the number of credit points earned. Each time additional points are earned, a certificate will be issued. No other medals will be issued by NRA until the 30 points have been earned, at which time the NRA Action Pistol Distinguished Badge will be awarded.
Action pistol competitors who feel they have achieved this level of competition should let us know.
Tournament Sponsors - Please be sure to indicate those competitors shooting a "Metallic Sight Firearm" or "Open Rim-Fire Firearm" on the SR-45 card you send to NRA.
