The National Rifle Association is proud to announce the 2016 dates for its NRA Outdoors 3-Gun Introduction Schools. Sponsored by Armalite, Benelli, SIG Sauer, and Vortex, this two-day course is designed to introduce and immerse the student into the exciting world of 3-gun competition. Registration is now open at www.nraoutdoors.com/schools.

Located at Peacemaker National Training Center (PNTC) in Gerrardstown, West Virginia, the course offers fast-paced lessons and firing drills to introduce shooters to 3-gun, one of the fastest–growing shooting disciplines in the world. Additionally, the course provides students with the opportunity to master a variety of marksmanship skills with a host of firearms in a fluid and dynamic setting.

Shooters will practice on actual 3-gun stages that utilize PNTC's world class ranges, target systems, and natural courses of fire. Using a proven step-by-step instruction model, our instructors will guide students through the complexities of the sport of 3-gun including; equipment, ammunition, firearms, rules, strategies, safety, stage planning and stage execution.
