A Minute (of your time) to Survive Series-Quick Pistol & Rifle Range Refresher

-Range Safety Officer moves with (and slightly behind) the shooter at all times.
- Locate all targets within the range's left and right limits of fire.
-Targets numbered from left to right. I recommend engaging 2-3 times per target.
-Generally, I would have my guys start out in standing firing position with the pistols (positions 1 & 2) then use kneeling position at positions 3 & 4 and finally, engage targets from positions 5 & 6 in the prone either unsupported or supported.
-Split up actual targets occasionally (prone/standing)
-Incorporate magazine changes (shooter handed magazines, round count unknown to shooter)
-Weapons on SAFE when moving to next barricade (next two barricades) So have the shooters run and/or low crawl-high crawl to next barricades based on the conditions that you set up.
-Utilize a broom, lawn rake, piece of carpet to constantly interrupt shooter by tapping head and shoulders (not too hard and not too much) to incorporate realism of confusion on the battlefield, stress.
-If competing, ensure shooters face the same conditions, targets, round counts, ECT across the board.
-Time the shooter & count hits to determine raw scores.
