McLean, VA –-(AmmoLand.com)- The new TV show highlighting the FNH USA 3-Gun Nation Tour, presented by SureFire, will debut on Versus, Monday, July 26, 2010.
The show will air Mondays at 7:30 a.m. EST and Thursdays at 3:00 p.m. EST. Watch amateurs and professionals alike compete head to head in some of the most action-packed and difficult stages of fire throughout the shooting sports.
The inaugural season pairs the tour with some of 3-gun’s most prestigious events: DPMS Superstition Mountain Mystery 3-Gun, Sabre Defense Blue Ridge Mountain, FNH USA Midwest 3-Gun Championships, MGM Ironman, and JP Enterprises’ Rocky Mountain 3-Gun.
Each event ends in a dramatic, head-to-head, single elimination shoot-off where one winner will walk away with $5,000. Competitors accumulate points throughout the season, and the top 50 are eligible to compete in the year-end championship following the USPSA Multi-Gun Nationals held September 13 outside Las Vegas, NV.
The winner of the 2010 FNH USA 3-Gun Nation Championship, presented by SureFire, will receive $25,000, courtesy of Leupold, and will make history as the world’s top 3-gun shooter.
In addition, the top finishers in each division at the USPSA Multi-Gun Nationals, who have not already earned a spot in the 3GN championship, will earn a wild card berth, giving 10 additional competitors a shot at $5,000, courtesy of Timney Triggers; $10,000, courtesy of US P.A.L.M.; and the grand prize of $25,000, courtesy of Leupold.
