During the Third Reich, shooting as a sport, and shooting competitions, were promoted by the Regime, with huge state-wide shooting competitions being held in various regions. The goal was to get people, especially young boys and men, interested into shooting, to prepare them for their future life as soldiers. These festivals and competitions, because they were considered important for the war effort, continued well into 1945. This is a short film about the 6th State Shooting Competition in Tyrol, which was held from 4th to 18th July 1943. The film itself was released in September 1943. - Subtitles by me.
