Law enforcement officers are required to fill a wide variety of positions. Most officers are only required to qualify on their sidearm and a patrol carbine. Some officers, however, mostly those assigned to SWAT, are also required to qualify on the weapons they carry for those special assignments as well. The qualifications to become a SWAT sharpshooter vary greatly from department to department. The only constant across the broad spectrum of sharpshooter employment is that, should the operator ever have to shoot in the line of duty, he must have total and complete confidence in his equipment and his abilities.
