Engage Targets with an M16-Series Rifle/M4 Series Carbine<br />
Using an AN/PAQ-4-Series Aiming Light<br />
Conditions: Given an M16-series rifle/M4-series carbine with a mounted,<br />
zeroed, and operational AN/PAQ-4 aiming light, at least one magazine<br />
with ammunition, engage able targets, and a requirement to engage such<br />
targets.<br />
Standards: Detect, identify as threat, and determine range to targets in<br />
assigned sector of fire; fire the M16-series rifle/M4-series carbine using<br />
the AN/PAQ-4 aiming light and appropriate engagement techniques so<br />
that each target is hit or suppressed.<br />
Per<strong>for</strong>mance Steps<br />
1. Ensure the ON/OFF switch is set to the correct position.<br />
a. Activate the AN/PAQ-4 in the #4 ON MOMENTARY position when<br />
using the M16A1/A2.<br />
b. Activate the AN/PAQ-4 in the #2 ON MOMENTARY position when<br />
using the M4.<br />
2. Detect targets.<br />
Note: Detection of targets depends on your position, your skill in scanning, and your ability<br />
to observe the area and recognize target indicators. The three methods of search are the selfpreservation<br />
method, the 50-meter overlapping strip method, and by maintaining<br />
observation of the area.<br />
3. Assume an appropriate firing position.<br />
Note: Assuming an appropriate firing position includes selecting the best available cover<br />
the situation allows. The firing position selected should protect you from enemy fire and<br />
observation, yet allow you to place effective fire on targets in your sector of fire.<br />
4. Determine range to targets.<br />
5. Identify targets by distinguish between threat and non-threat targets.<br />
6. Fire on targets using the AN/PAQ-4.<br />
a. Use the AN/PAQ-4 by—<br />
(1) Pressing the ON/OFF switch against the weapon handguard to<br />
activate the infrared aiming light (IAL) and project an infrared pulsing spot<br />
toward the target.<br />
(2) Firing the weapon when the IAL is on the desired point of impact.<br />
(3) Releasing the ON/OFF switch to deactivate the IAL.<br />
b. Use appropriate aiming and engagement techniques.<br />
Note: Aiming and engagement techniques include combat fire techniques, CBRN firing,<br />
night firing, moving targets, and short-range marksmanship techniques.<br />
