Adaptive shooting is applying any specialized technique or technology to safely participate in shooting activities. It can be as simple as lighter caliber guns to accommodate decreased grip strength associated with arthritis or as complex as hydraulic systems that allow people with quadriplegia to fire high powered rifles.

The NRA is working on developing adaptive shooting instructors to educate and train people with disabilities on all aspects of firearm ownership, concealed carry and competitive shooting.
What qualifies someone for the adaptive shooting program?
