I got to hitch along a shooting session instructed by the Special Unit of one of our local Law Enforcement Agencies, and one thing I liked about this session was how they used “Active” types of Pistol Shooting Drills. By “active” I mean drills that are stimulating or used movement also rather than just standing at a spot and then shooting at a static target.
In a way some of these drills are similar to the ones used by the International Defensive Pistol Association (IDPA). IDPA by the way is the governing body of a shooting sport that simulates self-defense scenarios and real life encounters. They put more emphasis on shooting on the move or behind cover, etc. anything that simulates shooting that might happen in real life.
They also don't allow “Competition only” equipment and permit only stock equipment with as minor modifications as possible. It was founded in 1996 now has an estimated 20,000 members in 50 countries around the world.1

License to Own and Possess Firearm (LTOPF) Itself Process - December 2016
The jumble of License to Own and Possess Firearms (LTOPF) documentary requirements that people will have to collect and go thru. |
DAY ONE
’Document Check’
The lady at the desk told me to go to the Document Checker after doing the following:
- Fill up two copies of the Application Form for the LTOPF, attach my 2” x 2” sized Identification (ID) pictures on it, and then have it notarized
- Photocopy ID documents, on separate papers
- Put all of the requirements on an envelope

License to Own and Possess Firearm (LTOPF) Requirements Process - December 2016
The requirements for the License to Own and Possess Firearms (LTOPF) as posted on December 2016 outside the Firearms and Explosives Divsion (FED) of the Philippine National Police (PNP). |
There are a couple of ways and outlets where one can go about getting these requirements, but I decided to just go directly to Camp Crame to make sure I followed the correct procedure, and hopefully to get it sooner also (how wrong I was, I found out later).
