The NRA Open Sectional National Indoor Pistol Championships are being fired at Sectional Tournaments throughout the United States. They are operated by match staff composed of local match officials. All local challenges and protests are to be resolved on the match site according to the procedures outlined in Section 16 of the NRA Pistol Rule Book. Each individual and team firing in a Sectional will automatically be entered in the National Championship at no additional charge. All fired scores are sent to the NRA where they are compiled and a National Champion is determined.
