Fun Pistol Qualification

Recently,  The Rifleman came across a set of standards for shooting. The  Lightfoot Militia  has a published set of standards for pistol qualification, rifle qualification, and designated Marksman qualification. Naturally, this is piqued the Rifleman's interest.

First up, pistol. 
Distance = 5 yards.
5 rounds per stage. 
Target = 8.5x11" paper.
Any shot on paper counts. 
Pass or fail: 7 or more hits = pass.

Stage 1:
From "Low Ready" place 5 shots on paper in 15 seconds. 

As you can see, this stage did not present a problem.  The Rifleman used some blue tape in the middle to help with aiming. However any shot on the paper would have counted.




Stage 2
From the holster, draw and fire 5 rounds in 5 seconds.

Easy as Pi! (Look at the time to get the pun!)




Well, as you can see, The Rifleman scored a perfect 10 out of 10 on this particular qualification. The pistol used was a Sig P320. The evaluation was performed in full kit.
