What are the details for US Army and USMC M16A2 rifle qual (eg. range, targets, time limits, ect.)?
per targetwestpointranger said:3-5 seconds per target or in all?
agreedmele said:USMC actually goes out to 500m and they use bullseyes and added points. Can't remember the breakdown for qualification, but I know they focus MUCH more on marksmanship than the US Army, and I prefer the USMC way of doing it

yea ive herd thatwestpointranger said:A friend of mine told me that back in WWII, GI's were trained on normal bullseye targets. The problem was that in combat they had trouble reacting to human targets becauset they weren't trained to.
Does anyone know if this is true or not?
When you say "hit the target", how large is the area which you're trying to hit?Jeff_850 said:50-300m range
40 targets, given a round for each target
must nail 23 out of 40 targets or better to be a marksman
30 out of 40 targets or beter to be a sharpshooter
36 out of 40 targets or better to be an expert makrsman
your given like 3-5 seconds
