This year the Italian IDPA National Championship will be held at the “Le Tre Piume” shooting range in Agna (PD) on September 15 to 17, 2017. The range is well known for having hosted the 2015 IPSC Shotgun World Championship and many other major International IPSC events. The range is placed in a very strategic area at a few kilometers from the “Monselice” exit of the A13 Highway, and it develop on e very extensive area.

THE MATCH: The Match will occur on a single day turn, 12 Stages, 170 minimum rounds and will be a Tier 3 Sanctioned Match, equipment check and chrono test will be mandatory. We encourage shooters to early check their equipment due to avoid last minute issues that would become hard to be fixed the day of the Match. In any case the gun check will be done before the Match and the equipment check will be done during the first stage of the Match. Ammunitions for the chrono test will be requested during the match. It is the shooter’s responsibility to guarantee that their firearm, equipment (cover garment and shoes included) and ammunitions will be meeting the required IDPA Rules. In case of violations the shooter will be assigned a DNF. Accepted Divisions are SSP-ESP-CDP-CCP-REV-BUG. All the shooters classifications are accepted. Sub Categories are listed on the match registration form. STAFF: Staff will shoot the pre-match on Friday and shooters will be able to choose between Saturday or Sunday. Those who are willing to attend as Staff will need to move up with the registration as indicated here below and to wait for the confirmation. Staff members will shoot the match at no costs.
