This video showcases Critical Task Evaluations (CTEs) used by Special Operations Forces (SOF) units for combat readiness. The instructor emphasizes that exceptional weapon handling, characterized by efficiency, proficiency, and smoothness, is the key to becoming a great shooter, not just a good one. The CTEs, a blend of Team Six and Delta quals, are conducted from 5-8 meters and incorporate various drills such as presentation from the holster, reloads, rifle presentations from different ready positions, multiple target engagement, footwork, and accuracy. The video highlights that these are skill tests designed to reveal muscle memory and areas for improvement, and should be performed cold without warm-up, simulating real-world scenarios. The instructor, Kevin M. Jimmerson, a marksmanship instructor, shares his experience and philosophy, stressing the importance of fundamentals.
