Enhanced Firearms Training Systems

Abstract

U.S. Coast Guard members often have little to no experience with firearms when entering the service, and firearm instruction is a requirement for all service men and women to teach (or improve upon) marksmanship. Firearm instructors guide students in many areas including grip, finger placement, and recoil anticipation. Providing this type of guidance requires instructors to work one-on-one with students, and at most training commands, high student-to-instructor ratios limit the personal guidance instructors can provide.
