Rifle and Pistol Qualification

Today was the day we went to the range to qualify with our weapons. I qualified as “expert” with my 9mm pistol and also qualified with the M-16. No medals for me though, since I qualified as an expert with the Navy years ago The M-16 range was a lot of fun where targets pop up at ranges from 50 meters to 300 meters. The targets only stay up for a few seconds before they go down again, so you have to be pretty quick. It was a lot of fun. Unfortunately, I qualified first thing and those of us that qualified had to wait around all day for the rest of the group to finish. I have spent countless hours sitting in bleachers this week. Luckily, the weather was beautiful today
