The 1st Annual Trijicon World Shooting Championship, presented by the NRA, will be held at the Peacemaker National Training Center in Glengary, WV and will crown “The World Shooting Champion”.

The NRA’s Competitive Shooting Division will manage and score the match with the assistance of the Peacemaker National Training Center match staff. The overall objective of this match is to assemble the top 400 shooters from around the world to include existing and previous champion shooters from virtually every organized shooting sport worldwide and crown one competitor, The Undisputed World Shooting Champion, a distinction never been bestowed upon any shooter in history.

All shooters will compete over the course of four days in twelve equally weighted, officially sanctioned disciplines from various shooting sports. All firearms and ammunition will be provided for each event thus shooters will compete with common firearms and ammunition. This will level the playing field, as specialized equipment for each discipline will be provided for all competitors. This will also alleviate the need for new equipment to be purchased for unfamiliar events; and assist with international and domestic travel for all competitors.

I got registered! I can't wait to see who all ends up shooting.

I suspect much of it will be like watching Nascar drivers race dirtbikes.

400 is a lot of people. I bet it goes to open registration. I know a bunch of top 3 gunners that can't attend simply because they can't take that much time off their day jobs.

Jesse - are there rules published for this? For example on the USPSA stage do you get a reshoot if the gun you're given jams?

Bill, the website says rules to be available soon.

I don't think any real Information is available just yet.

That too would be funny to watch.
You do have a great point. I can't imagine doing well crossing over into so many different disciplines. Who has the experience in that many and or has the resources to train for it all.
But I bet there will be some good train wrecks worth watching.

 

[jtischauser]

Veterans like Doug Keoning and Jerry Miculek have probably shot all of these types of competitions at least once. The AMU has ranges to practice most of these disciplines and the time to get proficient at them too.

 

[Dan S]

Don't overlook Robbie.

 

[Scuppernog]

I keep forgetting about the AMU. They do have all the resources. I have seen the inside of their warehouse that stores multi-millions worth of ammunition. They have it all.

The AMU is full of specialists. Some may cross over decently, but, not as well as you think. If it were a team match, they'd be at the top of the heap.

I registered a couple weeks ago, but I haven't gotten any further info from them on rules, stages, etc.

 

[Gammon]

How much?

 

[TheFaz]

How much?

$500 for match registration.

I got another email from the NRA about the match. Sounded like they might have opened registration to anyone. Anybody else get signed up?
