The Robinson maneuver Training Center

00:13.551 --> 00:15.920
in North Little Rock Arkansas hosts the

00:15.930 --> 00:18.070
annual Armed forces skill at arms

00:18.070 --> 00:21.770
meeting . Or if SAM this week , allied

00:21.770 --> 00:23.870
nations send their best marksman to

00:23.870 --> 00:26.092
test their skills in different shooting

00:26.092 --> 00:28.203
challenges , competitors expand their

00:28.203 --> 00:29.981
skills by shooting a variety of

00:29.981 --> 00:31.870
different weapons , including the

00:31.870 --> 00:33.759
standard issue service weapon , a

00:33.759 --> 00:35.648
shotgun and a pistol from several

00:35.648 --> 00:37.426
different distances . And under

00:37.426 --> 00:39.648
different circumstances , Courses range

00:39.648 --> 00:41.670
from a distance of 25 yards to 600

00:41.670 --> 00:44.190
yards with both stationary and moving

00:44.190 --> 00:46.520
targets . The events are timed and

00:46.520 --> 00:48.742
competitors often run to their shooting

00:48.742 --> 00:50.687
lines , pushing them to test their

00:50.687 --> 00:53.120
limits . The Sam competition allows for

00:53.120 --> 00:55.231
Camaraderie among different countries

00:55.231 --> 00:57.287
and the sharpening of their shooting

00:57.287 --> 00:59.398
skills early on when you first come ,

00:59.398 --> 01:01.564
that's when you really , you're like a

01:01.564 --> 01:00.980
sponge . You learn a lot of things from

01:00.980 --> 01:03.091
all different shooters because really

01:03.091 --> 01:05.313
they're the best in the world . Usually

01:05.313 --> 01:07.369
when we see these guys were overseas

01:07.369 --> 01:09.313
and were deployed so we can have a

01:09.313 --> 01:08.700
little fun with them here , more

01:08.700 --> 01:10.589
relaxed atmosphere and then learn

01:10.589 --> 01:12.700
something and take these skills we're

01:12.700 --> 01:14.700
learning here back to our units and

01:14.700 --> 01:16.811
make our units better FC and finishes
