National Handgun captain Dale Hing edged out Chad Melville to win last Saturday’s Action Pistol Competition organized by the Handgun Section of the Guyana National Rifle Association (GNRA) and held at the TSU range, Eve Leary.
There were three stages of timed shoots which tested the shooters’ speed in loading and engaging targets, using both strong and weak hands before the time expired.
Hing and Melville both recorded an overall score of 215 points and had to shoot off to break the deadlock, which Hing won.
The first stage was shot from 5metres with a 40-second time limit, while the second was shot from 10 metres with a 30- second time limit and the third stage was shot from15metres with a 75-second time limit.
The third place went to emerging female shooter Vidushi Persaud who recorded 213 points from the three stages.
The next competition organized will be a Practical Pistol competition on Sunday at the Timehri range starting at 09:00 hours.
Results:
First – Dale Hing (handgun captain) – 215/1
Second- Chad Melville – 215
Third – Vidushi Persaud – 213
