Night Vision Rifleman (NVR) is a data collection class via marksmanship and skills that puts students into practical rifleman ranges in-conjunction with Image intensification systems as well as accompanying accessories to establish a new base line at which to function in low light and no light situations. NVR places a high emphasis on marksmanship fundamentals as well as the mastery of the gear needed to shoot accurately and effectively in the dark.
