US Marine Corps Marksmanship Manuals

[DogmaDog]

Hey all,

I've recommended these in other threads, and got some positive feedback, so I thought I'd mention them here as well.  

USMC's doctrine division publishes the manuals for rifle marksmanship and pistol marksmanship, and is working on competetive marksmanship.  They're thorough, well-illustrated books on basics, covering weapons handling, basic marksmanship, and some more advanced stuff, like engaging multiple targets and moving targets, use of cover, reloading with one hand, and other combat techniques.

Get them in PDF format here:

Hey Dog - I've tried now 6 times and I can not connect to this site - can you verify the url please?

SG-

The URL is good.  Your security settings are probably set too high, the site uses a secure connection, but has a funky certificate Explorer doesn't like.  Try setting the security down and see if that works.  It's worth the download.

Thanks Eric - I'll give that a try!

[DogmaDog]

Yeah, what Eric said!

(glad you answered, cause I wouldn't have known what to do)

I hope it works.  If it does not, I can e-mail you the files in zipped .pdf format, or I could send them to Brian/another forum host to post somewhere else.

Let me know if you need help.

Semper Fi,

I got 'em!  I just overrode all the security options in my browser.
