A new course of fire and target will be implemented for the 2010 Constables' Firearms Training classes. The new course of fire will include the use of barricades; the requirements to move to cover; and the use of verbal challenges in each stage. The dual phase qualification has been retained, but will be using the more simplified NRA TQ-19 center mass target. Below are videos highlighting both phases of the new course of fire for firearms qualification and a video showing the 360 degree scan.
