These Boy Scouts, working on their Marksmanship Merit Badge, would be safe companions on a hunting trip after their lessons. r : The NRA Hunter Safety Course may be conducted by any qualified adult instructor who meets the requirements of, and is appointed by, the National Rifle Association of America. Instructors are appointed on the basis of experience and a written examination. The minimum length of time required for this course is fous hours: including the final examination. It is most desirable to give the course in four l-hour sessions. It may be given in two 2-hour sessions. Where absolutely necessary. it may be given in a single 4hour session. The main consideration is that at least four hours of instruction and testing be given each student. Whenever circumstances permit. the time should he extended bevond the minimum. The course may be conducted indoors,. but instruction out-of-doors gains the advantage of more natural surroundings from the hunting standpoint. A regular shooting range is preferable for firing. although portable or temporary backstops may be used. 5
