 So the next marine gets up there that guy goes back to the ready bench and has to see Second marine ever gets up there 11 November some 275 gets four out of five Goes back the guy in the ready benches. How'd it go? I got four out of five. He said Well back in the old core We used to know how to shoot So Intermerals is a competition that we hold here at Paris island from the shooting team and we're Basically inviting anyone within the local area extended out to Kings Bay and all Albany, Georgia to come and compete and show us what they have their capabilities of shooting a Rifle and pistol with the opportunity to at the end possibly join the shooting team So the 800 aggregate and the 500 aggregate the course of the fire the 800 aggregate consists of 20 rounds on your feet in the standing position what we like to call the off-hand position and then at the 200-yard line after the off-hand you will shoot a rapid fire from standing to sitting The only difference with that is is we shoot a speed reload So we'll shoot two rounds speed reload and then shoot eight and then you'll do that twice So you'll shoot two rapid fires and then moving back to the 300 We'll shoot a rapid fire from your standing position to your belly to the front And same thing shoot two speed reload shoot eight and you'll shoot that twice as well And then we move back to the 600-yard line To shoot 20 in the prone position slow fire You're look down range find your target You're gonna raise your pistol up For bullseye pistol normally we will shoot a 50-yard line slow fire to start out But that is with our our match guns the shooters had M9 service pistols So we had them shoot a 25-yard slow fire and that consists of 10 slow fire shots one at a time from a bladed position at a target that's 25 meters away after that They will shoot two time fires and a time fire consists of two Five round time fires in a time limit of 20 seconds So they'll shoot one five round in 20 seconds, and then they'll shoot it again in 20 seconds After that they move on to the rapid fire, which is the same two five round shot groups, but in 10 seconds attention to orders Department of the Navy this is to certify the Malachowski challenge is held every year at Paris Island By the Paris Island refland pistol team, and we hold it for Staff Sergeant James Malachowski. He was Stationed here on Paris Island. He was a primary marksmanship instructor, and then later on was on the Paris Island refland pistol team He later on went back to the fleet and ended up getting killed in action So we hold this as a memorial for him that Malachowski challenge consists of a 880-meter sprint With your rifle so full camis and rifle up to the 500-yard line on the range And then they'll drop down and shoot 10 rounds of the rapid fire at a Baker target And then the highest score whoever has the most hits most impact We hold it as part of the beginner murals portion It's usually the the last portion so after everything's all said and done we've done bullseye rifle bullseye pistol We'll hold the challenge at the end kind of like as a fun event for the shooters And then they kind of get a piece of history of the team as well Best advice I'd get is just practice But not just practice, but practice correctly. There's you know Consistency is accuracy. That's one thing that we we believe in the most. If you don't have consistency You'll never be accurate and you know there's great shooters in the world and some of the great shooters will practice until they can Get it right, but the best shooters in the world will continue to practice until they can no one get it wrong
