MAWC 2012 starting 20th April 2012

Post by fantumfan2003 » Tue Apr 03, 2012 4:25 pm

The 2012 Maharashtra Air Weapon Competition MAWC will be held from the 20th to 22nd April 2012 at MRA ranges in Worli, Mumbai.

As an example of overcoming adversity, Karoly Takacs has few peers. He was part of Hungary’s world champion pistol-shooting team in 1938, when an army grenade exploded, crippling his right hand. Ten years later, having taught himself to shoot with his left, he won two gold medals in the rapid-fire class.

Dear only32owner,
There's no win or loss n MAWC. There's no medal or certificate even. :-) You just have to play for experience and get a Minimum Qualifying Score (MQS) in your category which would enable you to participate in AIGVM later and beyond. In a way "competition" in its name is a misnomer. They probably might rank the top 3 in every event; that's it. BTW, did you participate ? I did in 10m AP.

Does Maharashtra Air Weapon Competition fall under any of these categories mentioned in the NRAI match book 2011 ??

"1.4 A Shooter is eligible to participate in AIGVMSC only if he/she has achieved the following minimum qualifying score in the previous AIGVMSC, Kumar Surendra Singh Inter School Shooting Championship, Zonal Championships, Inter University, Inter College Competitions (conducted under the supervision of NRAI) or in State Championship (Full course as per NRAI Match Book) conducted by the State in those events in which he/she wishes to participate. Scores of such competitions must be filled in the entry form at the time of sending entries for AIGVMSC. Shooters furnishing wrong information shall be debarred from taking part in any Championship for two years. Disciplinary action shall also be taken against the official signing the entry form."

Can anyone answer with certainty ? Thanks.

Methinks Full course = 40 for NR; 60 for ISSF. Now "Championship" (neither does "Competition") does not apply in sense of the word for MAWC but it could be from NRAI perspective applied for here. Gurus, please clarify.
