The Awards Banquet, open to all NPSC competitors and vendors, is scheduled for Wednesday, September 22, at the Albuquerque Hilton on University Boulevard.

“On the 50th Anniversary of NRA’s Law Enforcement Division, our brand of firearms instruction has set the standard for America’s men and women in blue,” said Division Director Glen Hoyer.

“Wayne LaPierre will address the enormous achievements to date in training America’s law officers and look to the challenges we still face with domestic security concerns in our post 9-11 world.”
