make every shot count...

I'm back from TK island again... hmmm, this week is the range week... Which means I actually get to fire my beloved wife with a life round. of course this doesn't come easy... Hmmm, everyday wake up really early draw arms and off to the 100m range...

When we are at the range, we were given a procedure briefing followed by the safety briefing. The strange thing was that, the 2IC gave us a briefing and tell us the route to the nearest medical center, but these information are useless coz we are not the driver to drive back to place...

It's really exciting when we get to fire off our 1st round... For guys who have gone thru NS, U guys know wat i'm talking about, for those who don't I'm sorry, Wait for Ur time to Come.... The most exciting part is when the conducting officer said, LOAD and READY. Then I will with my best "say", very cooly take the loaded magazine, slapped onto my weapon, pull the charging handle and put to safe mode. Haha, I tell myself, no matter what, must do with style.

The next adrenaline rush was when the conducting officer said, blah blah blah, OWN TIME OWN TARGET CARRY ON... This means we change the mode to semi and fire off when the target is up.

At this point, U will hear a few seconds of silence cause no one dared to fire the 1st shot because everyone scare misfire. Either my good buddy and I had the honour of doing the 1st few shots. I didn't really take notice of the shots, but just fire off when I am ready.

After firing 4 rounds, I took out my magazine and check clear my weapon and load another 4 rounds inside. WOOHOO... STYLE... After 2 magazines of rounds, I look at my scores, not bad... I had a close group size. Which means I pass lah! The instructor then clicked my weapon so that the weapon could be zero to my eye. COCK siaz... The instructor behind me didn't know how to click my weapon. I had to tell him how to click (based on my common sense). STUBBORN guy didn't listen to me. In the end, my PC had to do the clicking for me... Coolz...

The next few rounds was great... I had close group and night firing was alright, except I could exactly see the blinking targets. DAMN...

I lost my points to night firing blinking targets. I lost a total of 7 points. F*CK... Anyway, I passed my range with average results. Not to bad... At least I know I cleared my range... YAHOO...

Next week SIT TEST!!! Must do well, and aim for OCS!!!
