Start: The competitor begins seated in Box A, facing downrange with both hands on top of a table palms flat. The pistol is in the loaded and ready condition pointing downrange located between hands. On the start signal, the competitor using the weak hand only picks up the pistol and engages the targets in any order from Box A, weak hand only. Targets T1 and T2 receive two shots each. Note: The pistol must lie flat on one side and may not be propped up in any artificial manner. There is no limit to the number of the shots that can made on the stop plate. Your score should be reported as a "Hit Factor" (see the scoring section below).

Scoring: For this postal match, you must report your score as a hit factor. Your hit factor is your total target score (minus any misses and penalties) divided by your time. Hit factors must be reported to two decimal places. Shots in the "A" zone count 5 points each, "C" zone hits are worth 3 points each, and hits in the "D" zone count one point each. Shots in the non-scoring border area count 0 points. For any shot that misses the target or hits a no-shoot target you must subtract 10 points from you score. If more than two shots are taken at a paper target during each string, then a penalty of 10 points must be subtracted from your score for each extra shot and the hit from the extra shot is not counted for scoring. Hits in the hard cover area (the black areas of the targets) do not count for scoring and are not assessed a penalty. A hit is scored based on the location where the BB entered the target and does not include tears radiating out from the point of impact. If the BB diameter of a hit touches the line between two or more scoring areas or between a non-scoring and scoring area, the higher value should be scored. The maximum target score for this match is 30 (4 "A" zone hits at five points each plus two poppers at five points each). To calculate your hit factor, divide your target score by your time (recorded to the nearest 0.01 s) and report the results to two decimal places. The higher your hit factor, the better your score.

Special Considerations:
Since many AAPS competitors will not yet have all the equipment normally needed to compete in this match (metal poppers, stop plate, etc.), the special considerations outlined below will apply for this postal match.

1. Any AAPS regulation airsoft GBB pistol can be used (Open or Standard). Describe your pistol on the
    submission form.
2. If metal poppers are not available, then you may use popper templates as your targets. A shot inside the scoring area
    of a template is considered a hit.
3. If no stop plate is available, then the competitor can be timed with a stop watch (+ 0.01 s) or a shot counter
    In either case, the last shot must be on a popper or a popper template positioned as
    described under setup. If a stopwatch is used, the clock should be stopped when the shooter hits the stop plate. If a
    shot timer is used, then 0.05 seconds must be added to the total time to compensate for the average time it takes for
    a BB to travel 15 feet. The timing method must be described on the submission form.
