    Definitely not SVI, the NASRPC didn't exist in the mid 90s (it was the NASRC) and they were never incorporated (the CRO has no record of them under either name). The NRPAI was incorporated, but not the NASRPC.

    Also, there is no requirement for companies to have audited accounts in all cases. The audited accounts requirement is because of receiving sports council grants, not because of incorporation status (and if I remember correctly, the NASRC and NSAI avoided the auditing fees by having the NRPAI incorporated and auditing its accounts - so not really avoided, so much as taken off before the grant money arrived in their accounts).

    I knew it was one of them , the memory is starting to go :).

    Well from what I'm hearing not all is correct and honest with the GRPAIs version of events either, so really if no one can be honest we are all fcuked..

    All the Nasrpc have to do is release the letter that was read out

    Ahh there's no trouble at club level. The NASRPC national shoots is where it might be felt a lack of ROs might be the next issue but lots of others will help out I'm sure.... Including myself.

    Your right a lot of Ro's won't Ro at least the guys I know. With lads helping out they would need to be qualified Nasrpc RO's or asst Ro's if not I certainly wouldn't be comfortable with somebody clearing guns or dealing with issues that might arise on the line it they are not qualified. It's not a case of agh sure Mick we're short Ro's will ya clear a few guns for us. I did the Nasrpc RO course and it goes through every aspect of dealing with issues that can and will happen.

    So your one of the guys that won't RO at a NASRPC Shoot but will turn up and shoot all day, very nice of ya...

    Sure I wouldn't be able to shoot ( no Ro's )

    What's the difference between an asst RO & an RO?

    Is a "club" RO eg Harbour House a NASRPC RO?

    if they haven't done the Nasrpc RO course then they are not Nasrpc RO's. An asst ro has to be signed off by the committee after proving that they are able to call and run a line and deal with any issues that normally takes a year


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 251 ✭✭Rimfire Shooter


    So will NASRPC RO's be RO'ing GRPAI shoots? or would they be in the same boat as those on the GR squad who won't revoke their GRPAI "membership"?

    Do the RO's course it will stand to you in the future


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 236 ✭✭hermes2011


    it be exact same thing if you ro for one you probably wont be allowed ro for the other like what they did to the national team. wanting you to sign a declaration on allegiance. do the ro training it will stand to you as billben says, only problem is will the course be certified?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 40,038 ✭✭✭✭Sparks


    As you're reading in the other thread you started hermes, "certified" is a pretty limited term in our sport, and certification is generally only recognised by the body or person who does the certifying, at least in this country.

    I'm sure a good number of people will turn up. At the end of the day it's more shooting for us to do


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 66 ✭✭Valhalla18


    I'm sure it will go very well, 50 odd shooters saying they will be there with a good few others interested. I'm also sure all genuine shooters will wish them the best of luck. ( Unless you have a vested interest in seeing it go wrong.)

    I'll be there as I like to shoot all the comps. I can. Happened to miss the first couple of comps. so it will be good to get on the line (any line) again.
    People coming from NI to shoot so I'd expect a good turn out.
