 PE-4 “Fundamentals of Marksmanship

 The most exciting and awaited part of being a

criminology student begin. The second year BS
Criminology students of NEMSU (North Eastern
Mindanao State University) – Cantilan Campus,
trained on how to shoot and learn the basics about
marksmanship as a part of their subjects. The
purpose of this activity is to prepare all criminology
students for their future chosen profession, the law
enforcer. All students can’t wait to savor this
experience and that is the reason why they are all
prepared and also excited because this is their first
time to shoot.
 “During the Orientation”

 The said activity was conducted in Puyat, Carmen,

Surigao Del Sur at 36th Infantry “VALOR” Battalion,
Philippine Army. Before the actual firings, students
thoughts the gun safety rules and how to use those
different riffles. Also, students learned the proper
handling of riffle and proper body position with a
proper aim or sight alignment to hit the target. It was
demonstrated by our Philippine armies to ensure the
safety and smooth flow of the activity. Students were
oriented to be disciplined, and always follow the
instructions coming from their instructors.
 “The Actual Firing”

 After the orientation, the next step is to have a firing activity.

Everyone was at the firing range and again our Philippine army,
guide the students on what are do’s and don’ts in actual firing.
They got the first shot and every student felt the loudness and
nervousness due to excitement to try. There are two riffles to be
used, first is the R4 riffle which is high powered riffle used for
SAF and army in combat operation and it is the replacement of
M16 riffle. The second one is the M14 riffle, although it was old
model but still it is capable of precise shot in long range targets
and students must grip properly on this riffle due to its strong
recoil during the fire.
 “The Three(3) Basic Firing Positions”

1. STANDING POSITION

 This position requires balance and relaxation

especially when you are first time shooter. This
position is used if ever the target is below or
hiding. Standing position is the most common
firing position however, it is unstable if you
have lack of practice or experience in shooting.
 2. Kneeling Position

 For beginners, this position might be

uncomfortable but, in military, it is one of their
favorite firing positions. It is commonly apply in
assault combat or even for ambush to counter
the enemy. With this position, your body become
stable because the weight of riffle is evenly
distributed with the support of your knee.
 3. Prone Position

 This is the best firing position for beginners

because it provides stable and fix position of the
body as well as the riffles. It helps the shooter to
focus on the target while controlling the
breathing. The shooter’s weight is on the ground
and it helps to have better alignments and better
results of targets. This position usually used by
military on assault, ambush, snipers, and hiding
while holding their grounds.
 “My Deepest Gratitude”
 As a student of NEMSU Cantilan Campus, I would like to express my
deepest gratitude to all of the criminology instructors and militaries of
36th IB for their full support just for us to learn and experience those
important skills. I am very proud that I am one of the hundreds of
students enrolled in BS Criminology course here in NEMSU Cantilan and
in return, I will do my best shot just to hit that certain goal, to be a
registered criminologist. And also with the help of our almighty God,
everything will become possible. THANK YOU!!!
