Keep up the good work.

The CMP Rifle Instruction Guide
By Sommer Wood, Staff Writer/Editor
|
It was over three years in the works but the CMP Rifle Instruction Guide is finally completed. This instruction manual designed for rifle shooters and coaches is a collected series by the Director of the Civilian Marksmanship Program, Gary Anderson. The series originally appeared in the CMP’s Newsletter for Coaches and Junior Marksmen, On the Mark formerly JSCN News, in a series of columns titled Instructor’s Notebook, Teaching Rifle Marksmanship. These articles were addressed directly to instructors and coaches of three-position rifle shooters. This material has now been adapted for a wider audience to include junior and adult shooters in addition to coaches and instructors.
 |
| The CMP Rifle Instruction Guide covers over 20 topics including the Principles of Rifle Marksmanship Instruction, Gun Safety and Safe Range Operations, Technique for Firing the Shot and Learning the Use of the Sling.
|
The book is geared for the beginning shooter and should be used to help instructors and athletes design their lesson and training plans. Topics range from learning the proper shooting positions to mental conditioning for the new shooter, and are arranged in the general order in which they should be taught. This 48-page 8 ½ x 11 instruction guide is full of numerous diagrams and photos to aid in instruction.
To order your copy of the CMP Rifle Instruction Guide for $4.95, click on the CMP E-store at http://estore.odcmp.com/Store/
