The political party Futuro Nazionale organized a firearms safety and training event in Tolve, Basilicata, at the ‘Accademia dei Cavalieri’ shooting range. The program, which included theoretical lessons on mechanics and safety followed by a practical session and a precision competition titled ‘Trofeo dei Futuristi’, was intended to promote a culture of responsibility.

Following the event, the initiative drew political criticism. Giulio Curatella, the regional representative for Futuro Nazionale, defended the activity by stating that sport shooting possesses the same dignity as other disciplines. However, Delia D’Eugenio of Alleanza Verdi e sinistra criticized the event, arguing that politics should promote democratic participation rather than a “fascination with weapons” and expressed concern over the message sent by associating weapon use with social gatherings.
