3rd Military District Pistol Club Incorporated (3MDPC) is a Victoria Police Approved Handgun Target Shooting Club. 3MDPC was founded in the 1960s to provide access for serving and retired members of the Australian Defence Force (ADF) to the sport of target shooting. The club welcomes applications from people who have not served in the ADF and considers all applications on a case-by-case basis.
3MDPC conducts target shooting matches on the first, second and third Saturdays of most months. The club’s competition calendar is underpinned by the “Police & Services Pistol Match” with club members competing in the annual Australian Championship. The club also regularly shoots “Metallic Silhouette Field Pistol Matches” and “Metallic Silhouette Field Pistol – Rimfire Matches”.
