We created the Universal Standards to test your baseline, your ability to perform at a moment’s notice in environments you can’t control.

Focus on Practical Application: The standards emphasize real-world shooting scenarios, incorporating elements of movement, transitions between rifle and pistol, and performance under stress. This focus prioritizes functional skills over static range shooting.

Emphasis on Efficiency and Precision: Drills incorporate time-based metrics, encouraging shooters to develop speed and accuracy. Standards include drills that test the shooter’s ability to place rounds in designated target areas quickly and accurately.

Versatility: The standards are designed to be adaptable to various skill levels and equipment configurations. This allows for application across diverse user groups, from novice shooters to experienced professionals.

The standards include drills that test:

• Draw speed
• Target transitions
• Reloading efficiency
• Weapons manipulation
• Shooting while moving

The GBRS Shooting Standards aim to cultivate well-rounded firearms skills that translate to effective performance in dynamic and demanding situations.
