Abstract

Law enforcement officers are typically required to pass an annual marksmanship assessment to continue patrol duties. These annual assessments may not reflect on officer perceptions of confidence and handling of their firearm. The aim of this study was to identify differences in success rates and officer perceptions in firearm confidence and handling between a current Traditional Pistol Assessment (TPA) and a Proposed Pistol Assessment (PPA).
