Minister Dermot Ahern Outlines Handgun Ban
The Minister for Justice Equality and Law Reform, Mr. Dermot Ahern has outlined new proposals to seriously curtail the licensing of handguns in the state. The full text of his announcement can be found here.

The NTSA has no further details on how exactly this new regime will be implemented, but wish to point to the following paragraph in the Minister's statement "The Minister is prepared to make very limited exceptions in relation to Olympic sports only." Until we have further information, we are advising our members not to initiate any license applications for the present.

The Minister has also specified that radical tightening of the procedures for licensing handguns will be adopted and we assume that these will also apply to our members when they are published. We will advise you should any further details become available.

ISSF World Cup Munich selection Match PDF Print E-mail
Written by Kealan Symes   
Friday, 28 March 2008

The NTSA are holding a selection match for those who have expressed interest in attending the ISSF World Cup in Munich this year. The match will be held at the BRC Sporting Club range in Bohernabreena and the NTSA would like to express their appreciation to the committee of the BRC Sporting Club for allowing us to use their excellent range.

Although this is primarily a selection shoot, the competition is open to all to attend and it would be preferable if as many compete as possible in order that a fully competitive atmosphere is experienced by those wishing to be selected. Rathdrum Rifle and Pistol Club have kindly allowed their electronic target system to be used for the match so that as much possible assistance is given to achieve the required threshold scores for selection.

Munich selection match

to be held on Sunday 6th April at BRC Sporting Club, Bohernabreena, Co. Dubln.

Prone event – 60 shots in the Prone position only.

Sunday 6th April – First detail at 10:00am

To book a detail, go to www.rathdrumrpc.org and choose 'Book Detail' from the menu on the left. Follow the steps to book date, firing point/detail. A confirmation email will be sent to you to confirm your booking. Only available firing points/details will be displayed.

The NTSA reserve the right to re-allocate firing points/details should numbers booked not require the running of four details. In that event, shooters will be notified of any changes by email. In the event that a fourth detail is required, the timings of details will be changed and such changes will be published on the NTSA website: www.targetshootingireland.com
