There is a chance that a patrol rifle program will be authorized at my work for the 17-18FY. I am now doing the budget for the two sections that would be the users of the rifles, if approved. Rifles, optics, slings, ammo, and armorer schools have been budgeted for. We have no certified rifle users or instructors. I need to come up with a figure to train three instructors from non-user status to patrol rifle instructor. These deputies would be already certified handgun/shotgun instructors. Any ideas or suggestions are welcome. Budget is due 9.30.16.
You guys gave lots of great ideas on my shotgun training question last week. I have added some of the recommended items to the budget.
Again, thanks in advance and feel free to PM if desired.
