- Det frivillige Skyttervesen (DFS) (lit. 'The Voluntary Shooters Association'), known in English as the National Rifle Association of Norway, and by DFS themselves as the Norwegian Civilian Marksmanship Association since 2020, is a civilian marksmanship association in Norway and the largest shooting sport organization in Norway. It was created in 1893 by Norway's Storting to promote practical shooting skills within the Norwegian people, thereby empowering the national defence. DFS is sponsored by the Norwegian parliament and receives annually about 30 million Norwegian krones to fulfil their purpose. DFS collaborates with various departments in the Norwegian Armed Forces by educating shooting instructors. They also lend their shooting ranges for free to the Norwegian Home Guard. DFS is under the patronage of Harald V of Norway. DFS organizes over 750 shooting clubs all over Norway and had in 2017 approximately 138,000 members. This makes it one of the largest sports organizations in Norway. The 6.5×55mm cartridge has been the main standard cartridge in the organization for more than 120 years. The current main standard rifle is the Sig Sauer 200 STR in 6.5×55mm and .22 LR, and before that Krag–Jørgensen and various Mauser variants (i.e. M67, M59 and K98k "Heimeverns-Mauser") were used. Det frivillige Skyttervesen can be compared to the American Civilian Marksmanship Program. (en)
