TC 3-20.40 Training & Qual – Individual Weapons – 2019 – Mini size

TC 3-20.40 provides the outline for all individual weapon’s training strategies, resources, prerequisites, and requirements for planning and executing training.  It provides a single reference for commanders, staff, planners, and trainers.

Introduction

TC 3-20.40 describes how a unit builds their unit training plan (UTP) for individual weapons. It provides all the information needed to plan, prepare, execute, and assess individual weapons training strategies and certifications. The training strategies described follow the progressive and gated structure of the integrated weapons training strategy. This manual defines the Army-standard requirements for individual weapons qualification and establishes those qualifications as prerequisites for continued training for either specific capability certification or collective live-fire training.

TC 3-20.40 composed of four chapters and nine appendixes, and is specifically tailored to the training strategy, qualification standards, and various weapons certifications of current individually assigned weapons in the Army’s inventory.

TC 3-20.40 applies to all Soldiers, regardless of experience or position, who are assigned an individual weapon. This publication is designed specifically for unit commanders, training managers, and staff to tailor small arms training to achieve the appropriate level of lethality and proficiency.

This book is a “Mini” (half the size of a piece of paper).

A popular size to carry anywhere (briefcase, large pocket, purse) but the print is large enough for easy reading.  The binding is with coil, allowing easy flipping of pages without jamming.

The color covers are laminated for weather protection with black and white inside printing.

(A BIG size version (8 1/2 inch by 11 inch, the same size as a regular sheet of paper) is on this website too)
