A General Rules

Each shooter shall be subject to the regulations of this sport shooting handbook.

A1 Applicability

This handbook is based on the provisions of the German Weapons Law (Waffengesetz) of 11 October 2002, which has been in effect since 1 April 2003, as well as the pertinent Ordinance which was adopted on 11 July 2003 and entered into force on 1 December 2003. All regulations in this handbook, in particular the shooting training are subject to the statutory provisions and limitations of the German Weapons Law as amended.

Persons who do not fulfill the requirements of section 5 of the Weapons Law (reliability) or section 6 of the Weapons Law (WaffG) (personal fitness), cannot become members of the club. Members who do not fulfill or no longer fulfill the requirements of the above stated sections shall be excluded from club membership.

Persons whose perception is impeded by alcohol, drugs or narcotics shall be excluded from shooting.

The general rules serve as a basis for all competition classes. If for certain parts of a competition class other rules are determined those will be applicable instead of the general rules.

Shooting training which is not permissible pursuant to section 15, paragraph 6 of the Weapons Law in connection with section 7a of the Weapons Ordinance shall not be performed. Accordingly, the practice drills in this Sport Shooting Handbook do specifically not contain any elements of shooting from a defense position, in particular there will be

- No shooting from a cover - No getting over obstacles after the first shot was fired - No shots fired when an individual is visibly running - No cross-draw of more than one weapon

Page 5: For sport shooters of the U.S. Forces and other authorized ... · PDF fileEach shooter shall be subject to the regulations of this sport shooting handbook. A1 Applicability This handbook

Sporthdb-Jan-05.doc Edition: 06-Jan-05

Page 3 of 32

- No shots without exact aiming at the target, except for skeet - No quick reaction to moving targets popping up suddenly and surprisingly, with the exception of skeet and running targets - No target practice where the shooter does not know the procedure in advance due to no prior determination of rules.

All sport shooting weapons must be in accordance with the statutory provisions. The use of weapons which are excluded from use for sport shooting pursuant to section 6, paragraph 1 of the General Ordinance on the Weapons Law (AllgemeineWaffengesetz-Verordnung – AwaffV) is prohibited. The minimum barrel length for short weapons is 3” (7.62 cm).

Number of Weapons

Proof of need must be provided for each weapon to be acquired. In case of a determined need basically a maximum of 4 hand guns and up to 3 semi-automatic long guns may be purchased. An exception will only be granted in specifically justified cases.

Special Rules Due to Location:

If, due to exsiting range conditions, rules must be changed in certain areas (e.g. target distances, aiming positions and others), the changed conditions must be stated in the event announcement. Only such competitions authorized within the scope of the permission to operate a shooting range pursuant to section 27 of the German Weapons Law may be held.

Acceptance of Rules

By participating in competitive events, the shooter accepts the sport shooting and competition rules.

Rules Interpretation

In cases where an unequivocal interpretation of sport shooting rules is not possible, they will always be interpreted in the spirit of good sportsmanship, which demands that all participants be

Sporthdb-Jan-05.doc Edition: 06-Jan-05

Page 4 of 32

treated equally, and in case of doubt the interpretation will always be in favor of the shooter. The final determination will be made by the range officer.

Rules Familiarity

Every shooter is obliged to be familiar with the sport shooting rules and the rules of the competition.

Safety Provisions

Every shooter is obliged to be familiar with the safety provisions and the basic rules for handling weapons and ammunition and to strictly adhere to them.

A2 Range Etiquette and Safety

Range Etiquette

The safety of participants, range personnel, and audience constantly demands concentrated attention in handling weapons and caution when transporting them on the range. Self-discipline is an absolute necessity for all. Wherever necessary self-discipline is not apparent, range personnel is required to take action in order to demand discipline and participants are obligated to support such requirement.

Ranges may only be entered by participating shooters and responsible range personnel. The area behind the shooter (usually marked by a dividing band) may be entered by the

range officer and range supervisor only.

Participants and range personnel standing directly behind the shooters should confine their conversation/remarks to competition-related subjects.

Individuals who disturb shooting operations or have an impact on the safety may be told to leave the range.

Page 7: For sport shooters of the U.S. Forces and other authorized ... · PDF fileEach shooter shall be subject to the regulations of this sport shooting handbook. A1 Applicability This handbook

Sporthdb-Jan-05.doc Edition: 06-Jan-05

Page 5 of 32

Individuals who disturb the shooting competition through loud conversation or their behaviour may be removed from the range.

Safety Provisions

The official provisions must be observed. In addition, safety rules tailored to the conditions of the individual range must be observed. The range supervisor is responsible for compliance with the safety rules, he may, however, delegate that responsibility for certain fields to other suited persons.

Within the confines of the range, it is forbidden to practice sighting procedures, other than in the dry-run portion of the designated pistol handling area for dynamic shooting.

At the individual shooting positions, aiming exercises may be conducted with permission of range personnel.

On the individual range only one aiming position may be

assumed for shooting

While loading and unloading, the barrels of the weapons must be held in the general direction of the targets. Hand guns are to be held with the extended shooting arm toward the target, so that the barrel points approximately one meter in front of the shooter toward the ground.

Other than the weapons which are participating, no other weapon on the range may be loaded.

In case of any interruptions, the shooter will unload his weapon.

A loaded weapon will not be laid down. Unloaded weapons may be laid down only, when, in case of revolvers the cylinder is swung out, in case of pistols the chamber is cleared and the magazine is removed, and in case of long weapons the chamber is cleared and the magazine removed. Exceptions from these rules are determined by range officers (e.g. for carrying holsters).

Sporthdb-Jan-05.doc Edition: 06-Jan-05

Page 6 of 32

A malfunction shall be cleared with the weapon pointed toward the bullet catch.

Dropping of a loaded or unloaded weapon will lead to immediate disqualification from the competition.

The shooter may leave his position only when he is absolutely certain that his weapon is cleared, the chamber is open, the safety is on (to the extent this is technically possible), and the range officer has verified that the weapon is safe.

To prevent hearing loss, the shooters shall wear ear protection on all ranges. Use of eye protection with side cover suitable for sport shooting is mandatory for all shooting events and shooting training. Range supervisors shall deny shooting to shooters not wearing eye protection.

Persons who are under age may enter the range only when accompanied by a parent or by a person with written authorization.

Shooters under age, whose parents are members of the Rod & Gun Club and/or Hunting, Fishing, & Sport Shooting Club or members of the US Forces, may participate in shooting competitions under the following conditions:

Juveniles who are 14 years old may shoot with weapons if the person in charge of their upbringing and custody has given written consent or is present during the shooting.

Children who are between 12 and 14 years old may only shoot with air-pressure or CO2 weapons. The above rules for juveniles shall apply accordingly.

Highly experienced range supervisors who have already worked with juveniles shall be choosen for the training of children and juveniles. If the range supervisor lacks qualification

Sporthdb-Jan-05.doc Edition: 06-Jan-05

Page 7 of 32

in working with juveniles an expert in this field shall be consulted.

Shooters under age may not participate in regular competitions.

The shooters acquire the required technical knowledge pursuant to section 7 of the German Weapons Law (WaffG)through training courses at the Rod & Gun Club. Training shall be conducted by qualified supervisory personnel.

In addition, each shooter must educate himself in the area of legal and internal provisions, sport shooting regulations and, above all, safety rules. Respective written material is available at the clubs and Education Centers.

After appropriate preparation, the shooter can take the technical knowledge test pursuant to section 7, WaffG in connection with section 2, AwaffV at his local Education Center.

A3 Competitions

There is no general division into competition categories.

Types of Competition

There are friendship competitions and championships.

Friendship competitions will be held internally or with “friendly”clubs or associations at a national or international level without requiring public announcement.

State or Federal championships are competitions to determine the champions within the U.S. Forces for the current sporting year.

The sporting year is the calendar year.

There will be individual scoring as well as team scoring.

Sporthdb-Jan-05.doc Edition: 06-Jan-05

Page 8 of 32

Open championships are competitions in which every member and non-member may participate. Non-members must accept in writing all rules of the sport shooting manual, provide proof of liability insurance, and of the required technical knowledge when handling weapons and ammunition.

Open championships must be publicly announced.

Championships of a given event will normally be held all on the same date and at the same place.

Every shooter may participate only once per event in a championship shoot.

Championships will be held in the order Club, State, and German National. Permission to participate in the German National Championship will, in case of high participation interest, be determined by comparing each shooter’s score at the State Championship with an established cut-off minimum score.

The U.S Forces are not obliged to hold championships in all in all events.

Scheduling of the competitions is within the responsibility of the organizer.

A Club, State, or German National Championship shoot can only be conducted under the condition that at least three shooters participate in a given event.

Shooting prior to an actual event may only be done by personnel conducting the event; shooting later is not permitted by either participants or personnel.

Entry forms will be provided by the organizers and must be used by all participants.

For possible inquiries, a telephone contact number should be available and announced.

Sporthdb-Jan-05.doc Edition: 06-Jan-05

Page 9 of 32

The entry fee will be submitted with the entry form. Failure to pay the entry fee will result in denial of registration.

The cut-off time and date for entries specified in the announcement shall be strictly adhered to.

Changes in registrations will only be permitted if the schedule allows for it.

Weapons Check

In cases where there may be a question as to the classification of a weapon, the reliability of weapon components, accessories, etc., the organizer of the competition will be

requested to make a prior determination.

Every participant in a competitive shoot is responsible to see that his weapon and every piece of his gear and accessories is presented at the weapons check for official examination and acceptance. Every shooter has the right to have his weapon and gear examined by the organizer. If the acceptance of a weapon depends on the date it was put in service, the shooter may be required to provide proof.

After the weapon has been approved for competition, it may be re-examined at any time during competition and up to fifteen minutes after the end of the competition.

Starting Time

The shooter is obliged to appear on time at his assigned place of competition. Time lost due to tardy appearance will be deducted from shooting time, assuming that it is even possible to commence shooting. It must be ensured that other competing shooters are not disturbed by this.

The decision as to whether the tardy shooter may commence shooting will be made by the range officer. A tardy shooter is not entitled to a later starting time. The entry fee is forfeited.

Sporthdb-Jan-05.doc Edition: 06-Jan-05

Page 10 of 32

The shooter has the right to assume his position at the latest five minutes before the beginning of the competition in order to make his final preparations, provided the announced procedures do not specify otherwise.

No special requests with reference to starting times may be honored.

Starting times requested by shooters from other communities should be considered because of longer distances traveled to the shoot.

The starting times established by the organizer are binding; however, the shooter should, by timely appearance, help ensure flexible use of range facilities.

Shooting Time

Time allotted for shooting will be specified by individual event rules.

The targets should be in place five minutes before shooting commences, so that the shooter can practice his aiming position.

Time Interruptions

If a shooter, through no fault of his own, is required to interrupt his shooting for more than three minutes, he may request a time recompensation.

Turning In Target for Scoring

The shooter is responsible to ensure that his target is turned in after shooting for scoring.

Practice targets do not need to be turned in for scoring.

Scoring of Targets

Sporthdb-Jan-05.doc Edition: 06-Jan-05

Page 11 of 32

Protests may only be made against incorrect scoring, errors in addition, or incorrect entry on the results board.

The result entered in the score card must be initialed by the scorer.

If a shot touches the next higher ring (tangentially) on the target, that ring is to be counted.

If, in case of revolving targets, a shot hits the target while it is revolving, the shot will be scored as “no hit” if the oblong hole is 1.5 times longer than the caliber diameter.

If hits are immediately counted at the bench (i.e., the used target is left in place and is taped over for the next entrant), the shooter must immediately lodge any complaints against the scoring. Any protests concerning scoring after the target is taped over or the shooter has left the bench will not be considered.

A4 Conducting the Shoot

Operating personnel

Range operating personnel consists of:

- Supervisory personnel - Registration personnel - Weapons and equipment personnel - Range personnel - Target scorers

The organizer must ensure that sufficient operating personnel are in place.

If sufficient operating personnel are not available for all tasks, the organizer may ask participating shooters to perform necessary operational duties.

Supervisor

Sporthdb-Jan-05.doc Edition: 06-Jan-05

Page 12 of 32

The range supervisor of the shoot is responsible for the safe and sporting conduct of the shoot.

Registration

Registration personnel will issue the shooter a score card for each event in which he participates. The card shall be given to the range officer before the event starts.

Weapon and Equipment Check

Before the competition starts, each weapon should be examined by the equipment and weapons checkers to ensure that it complies with the sport shooting rules.

Range Officer

The range officer is responsible for permanent supervision of the shooting and he needs to make sure in particular that the individuals present at the shooting range do not cause avoidable hazards by their conduct. He shall further make sure that only those weapons are used which are authorized on the range, that children under 12 years of age do not shoot and/or juveniles only shoot with the authorized weapons, and that official terms and conditions are complied with.

The range supervisor is authorized to prohibit shooting or deny access to the range if this is necessary to prevent risks.

Participants in an event shall comply with the range officer’s instructions immediately.

Furthermore, the range officer shall ensure a smooth sequence of events (supervision, starting commands, scoring on the range and other things) on the range assigned to him.

Target Scoring

Sporthdb-Jan-05.doc Edition: 06-Jan-05

Page 13 of 32

In evaluating the targets, the target numbers shall be compared with the score cards. The notes of the range supervisor and/or the range officer shall be taken into consideration and, if warranted, deductions made from final scores. Scorers shall also be responsible for ranking the final results of participating shooters, updating the listing as required, and to post a table of results at a prominent location for all participants to see.

Protests

Cases where violations of competition rules occur must be reported to the organizer immediately.

Immediately after irregularities have been observed, protests must be submitted to the organizer in writing, by calling witnesses and depositing a fee of 10 Euros.

Protests against the competition results must be lodged within 30 minutes after publication of the results.

Subsequent protests made after the 30-minute protest window following a competition will not be considered.

The range supervisor will make all final determinations concerning protests.

Cross Shooting

If a competing shooter shoots at the wrong target, he shall inform the range supervisor or range officer immediately.

A shot at the wrong target shall be scored as a “no hit.”

If a shooter discovers a shot on his target which he is sure is not his, he must report it at once to the range supervisor or range officer.

If it cannot be determined with absolute certainty which shots were made by the neighboring shooter, the worst shots on the target will be annulled.

Sporthdb-Jan-05.doc Edition: 06-Jan-05

Page 14 of 32

Incorrect Number of Shots

If it is determined that a shooter has fired more rounds at his target than he is authorized, the corresponding number of best shots on his target will be scored as “no hits.”

If a shooter fires too few shots at a target each missing shot will be scored as “no hit”.

Ranking in Case of Equal Scores

In case of equal scores, ranking of shooters will be determined by the following:

a) the higher number of 10s

b) the higher number of full (better) 10s

If there is still an equal score, the smaller deviation from the center of the target to the farthest shot shall determine the better result.

Variances

If, for certain events, different scoring rules apply, these will be defined in the rules for the event.

Disciplinary Rules

In case of violation of sport shooting rules or failure to follow the instructions of the range officer (orders “clear your weapon”, “put down your weapon” and others), the offending participant will receive disciplinary penalties.

Reduction of scores or disqualification may be imposed by the organizer or range supervisor only.

Warning

Sporthdb-Jan-05.doc Edition: 06-Jan-05

Page 15 of 32

Minor infractions of safety regulations will be answered with an official warning.

In case of a clear violation of rules (e.g. weapon, clothing, position) during the practice period, the shooter will first be warned, so that he has the opportunity to correct the mistake.

Disqualification

After being warned twice, the participant will be disqualified.

Carrying a loaded weapon or a weapon whose condition cannot be immediately recognized will be punished by immediate disqualification.

Dropping a weapon when shooting will result in immediate disqualification.

In case of other violations (e.g. improper handling of a weapon on the range, brandishing a weapon or the like) immediate disqualification shall be imposed in order to protect the other participants.

In the event of disqualification, the entrance fee is forfeited.

Weapon Defects and Weapon Malfunctions

If a shooter can prove that his weapon is defective, he will be allowed to repair the problem and resume shooting at a later time determined by the range supervisor, if the range capacity allows for that.

His remaining shooting must be finished within the time allotted for the event, but a minimum of thirty seconds per shot shall be granted (not applicable to rapid-fire events).

If a weapon failure occurs during a rapid-fire event, the time lost is deducted from the shooter’s total time.

Ammunition Failure

B1 Applicability

The technical rules apply to all events, unless specified otherwise in the event description.

B2 Firing Signals

- On Benches

The shooters are prepared with weapons ready to shoot and aimed (ready to aim).The range officer checks shooting readiness with the question, “Are the shooters ready?” If there is no response, the following commands are given: “Start firing” and “Cease firing.”

Instead of these verbal commands, acoustic signals may be used.

Sporthdb-Jan-05.doc Edition: 06-Jan-05

Page 19 of 32

- For Revolving Targets

The shooters are prepared with weapons ready to shoot and aimed (or ready to aim).The range officer checks shooting readiness with the question, “Are the shooters ready?” If there is no response, the revolving targets are spun away for seven to ten seconds. Shooting time commences when the targets start spinning again. Shooting time ends when the target begins spinning away.

B3 Intervals

At intervals between the individual target revolutions, the starting position should be resumed.

B4 Targets

Target Distance

The target distance is measured from the rear edge of the distance line to the front edge of the target.

Maximum allowable tolerances +/- at:

25 meters +/- 20 cm. 50 meters +/- 50 cm 100 meters +/- 100 cm 300 meters +/- 100 cm

B5 Ammunition

Legal provisions shall be complied with. In particular in case of loaded or reloaded ammunition the maximum permissible gas pressure shall be complied with.

Only the use of ammunition specified in the special rules is permitted.

The individual rounds must be sufficiently powerful to ensure that the automatic feature of self-loading weapons is functional.

B6 Loading Aids

If not prohibited by special rules, the use of loading aids (clips or frames, extra magazines, speed loaders, etc.) is permitted.

B7 Sun and Rain Protection

A sun and/or rain umbrella is permitted, if not restricted by special rules. Neighboring shooters may not be obstructed by the use of such an umbrella.

B8 Clothing

Soldiers on active duty may shoot wearing uniform. For all other shooters wearing of uniforms (also battle dress) or uniform parts is prohibited.

B9 Technical Definitions

Trigger Pull Force

Trigger pull force is the energy required by the shooter at the trigger parallel to the barrel in order to cause the weapon to fire.

The trigger pull force has the required value if the test weight does not cause the cocked weapon to release with the barrel held in a vertical position.

Trigger Stop

A trigger stop is a stationary or variable piece which causes the trigger to stop without going completely to the rear of the trigger guard after the shot has been released. Swing-out trigger stops are permitted. In events in which trigger stops are not allowed, a weapon may only be used with the trigger stop swung out.

Temporarily Mounted Parts

Sporthdb-Jan-05.doc Edition: 06-Jan-05

Page 21 of 32

Temporarily mounted parts (e.g., tape) which have the same function as a trigger stop, are considered equal to a trigger stop.

Combat Grips

Combat grips are defined as grip pieces with finger indentations; a thumb rest is not permitted.

Sporting Grip Pieces

Sporting grip pieces are orthopedic grips with thumb and/or palm rests.

B10 Competition and Practice Targets

For official competitions, only the targets specified for the individual events may be used.

The competition targets shall be numbered or marked with the name of the shooter.

The target material must be of a consistency which will ensure that the bullet impact does not create a hole larger than the actual caliber, so that accurate scoring is possible.

Practice targets must be clearly identified or marked in a color code.

Targets depicting or symbolizing human beings are prohibited.

Due to the high number of hunting license owners in the association and hunting license candidates shooting training for huntering purposes is also offered. Such training is strictly for shooting for hunting purposes.
