TMSA is hosting a CASE 2017-08-05 and there are still a few spots left!
What is CASE?
CASE is an acronym for Competency And Safety Exam. This practical exam allows assessors to confirm prospective participants are ready for dynamic shooting sport competitions. It is necessary to comply with our insurance. This is a pass/fail course, so candidates need to meet all the performance objectives to succeed!
The exam isn't particularly hard, but requires concerted effort. Assessors will be watching for appropriate muzzle direction and trigger finger discipline while candidates negotiate a course of fire that simulates a typical competition stage. The CASE course of fire will require candidates demonstrate knowledge of the FOUR RULES OF FIREARMS SAFETY and practical safe handling of their firearm. The course of fire dictates the candidate shoot from their support side, shoot through ports, shoot while moving, reload safely, and fire from several different positions; possibly including prone, urban prone, kneeling and sitting.
Candidates will be issued a CASE Qualification Card upon successful completion. This card must be produced at all DSSBCA affiliated matches in addition to a valid PAL.
Per DSSBCA rules, CASE assessors are not allowed to be paid to run the qualifiers. Fees may only be charged to cover any cost of facilities where the qualifiers are held. This session at TMSA is offered for $50.
Very limited availability!!!!
