I think after passing the qualifications, that also automatically puts your into the local FBI office's marksman team. LOL!

I think the Texas shooting is 50 rounds. 20rds @ 3yds, 20rds @ 7yds, and 10rds @ 15yds. I don't think the requirements at any of those distances were very high. I don't think you had to do any shooting one handed. As a matter of fact, I would be surprised for anyplace to require that. I'd think that they'd prefer to promote 2 handed shooting.

Wow. When I got my license in TX, I think the "class" (including shooting) was either 8 or 10 hours (2 hours was reserved for shooting with the rest as a required minimum for the classroom training).
I think they eventually knocked it down to 4 hours. And now you don't have to have a license. Although, you can still get a license, and having a license does give you a little more permissions than not having one.
