CMP Adds Action Pistol to List of Club Sanctioned Matches

If you are part of a Civilian Marksmanship Program (CMP) Affiliated Club, you may now sanction Action Pistol matches at your home range!

CMP Affiliated Clubs have the opportunity to host their own local CMP Sanctioned Matches, all year long. CMP Match Sanctioning is available for Three-Position Air Rifle, Excellence-In-Competition (EIC), non-EIC, CMP Match Pistol and CMP Games Rifle and Pistol events, along with Smallbore, Mid-Range and Long Range competitions.

Action Pistol is one of CMP’s latest programs – offering events that combine accuracy and movement. With such high profile Action Pistol matches as the long-standing Bianchi Cup in Missouri now facilitated by the CMP, the organization is striving to include more opportunities for the discipline around the country.

Those who wish to sanction a CMP Action Pistol match must first complete an application form for CMP Sanctioned Matches and Clinics, found at https://thecmp.org/competitions/forms/. Match directors must also submit a copy of the match program along with the application.
