Building upon the Basic Evolution, the Infantry Evolution is to further instruct and test the shooter on drawing from the holster, weapon reload procedures, weapons malfunctions, and transition drills from their primary weapon to a secondary weapon. This Evolution will test the shooter on situations which qualify for rapid implementation of a malfunctions drill or to transition from their primary weapon to a secondary weapon. This Evolution will begin mid morning of Day 1 into mid afternoon Day 1. Shooters will be engaging targets from static positions.

During the SOF Evolution all prior drills will be implemented in a dynamic environment where the shooter will advance down range, to eliminate their targets. These drills will focus not only on accuracy while moving but test the shooter in proper firing positions dependent upon the obstacle they move to. Shooters will be expected to engage targets with random malfunction, magazine changes, and transitions, all while advancing down a 100m flat range. This Evolution will begin mid afternoon Day 1 and culminate late morning Day 2. Shooters will be engaging targets from static positions and while moving. Our Cadre will determine if the shooter is qualified to move forward into the final Evolution, the Tier 1 Evolution.

During this Evolution shooters will be expected to address any and all issues with their weapon platforms, manage magazine reloads, malfunction drills, engaging targets from a static and while moving, and over a long distance, while navigating obstacles and dealing with Cadre induced stress, all to simulate a high-stress environment. This Evolution will require physical endurance and mental fortitude. This Evolution will last all afternoon of Day 2 until event conclusion.
