Classification System
Only SH1 and SH2 classes are represented in the Paralympic Games, based on IPC Shooting Classification Rules and Regulations.
- SH1 – Shooters able to support a gun without a stand
- SH2 – Shooters requiring a gun support to shoot
- SH3 – Blind Shooters (sights seek sound-emitting targets)
Sub-classifications A, B and C define wheelchair backrest height depending on back and pelvic strength per athlete.

Famous quotes containing the word system:
“Every political system is an accumulation of habits, customs, prejudices, and principles that have survived a long process of trial and error and of ceaseless response to changing circumstances. If the system works well on the whole, it is a lucky accident—the luckiest, indeed, that can befall a society.”
—Edward C. Banfield (b. 1916)
