"Pistol marksmanship" by United States Marine Corps is a military training manual written in the early 21st century. This publication serves as an instructional guide for Marines, systematically covering the tactics, techniques, and procedures for operating and maintaining the M9 9-mm service pistol, with the goal of ensuring safe, effective, and confident use in a variety of combat situations. The manual is comprehensive, focusing on everything from the mechanical aspects and safety protocols to the mental and physical preparation required for pistol proficiency. The opening of this manual features introductory material regarding distribution, suggestions for changes, and sources for acquiring additional copies, emphasizing its official and evolving nature. It then provides a foreword underscoring the importance of pistol skills for Marines, followed by a detailed table of contents. The first chapters thoroughly describe the M9 pistol's characteristics, functions, safety mechanisms, ammunition, and detailed instructions on carrying, maintaining, and operating the weapon under various environmental conditions. Subsequently, the text lays out strict safety rules, weapon handling procedures, loading/unloading processes, and the fundamentals of marksmanship, concluding with guidance on proper firing positions and grips. Overall, the opening establishes a methodical, disciplined approach to pistol training designed to prepare Marines for real-world operational demands. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
