Women have an exciting incentive to improve (or start developing) their marksmanship skills with the NRA Marksmanship Qualification Program.
Here's how it works!
Obtain the NRA Marksmanship Qualification booklet (either online at the Program Materials Center or by calling 800-336-7402 and ordering EQ 09525), or peruse www.nrahq.org/education/training/marksmanship. Select the course of fire you want to use, and order the corresponding Women On Target® Rifle, Pistol, or Shotgun qualification patch. (Ordering the corresponding rating awards at the same time -- certificates, rockers, and medals -- will save you money.)
As you complete each rating requirement, fill out your certificate and add your rocker to the Women On Target® Patch on your vest or jacket. It's that simple!
Start tracking your practice scores on the firing line, and watch your skills progress from beginning ratings (Pro-Marksman and Marksman) through intermediate ratings (Marksman 1st Class, Sharpshooter, and Expert) up to a nationally-recognized rating -- Distinguished Expert.
Change disciplines (pistol to rifle or shotgun, for example) and you can vie for Double Distinguished Expert. Change again, and you can be a Triple Distinguished Expert.
The NRA will promote you, your picture, and your Distinguished Expert, Double Distinguished Expert, and Triple Distinguished Expert success on the Women On Target® Qualification webpage, providing that you pre-register your participation by emailing WomenOnTarget@nrahq.org, or fax this form to (703) 267-3898.
