Many, When I was in a combat engineer company, during my National Guard days, my squad was detailed to run the ranges of every weapon fired by an infantry soldier, for the battalion, and we had to learn how the handle them before we could do our job. We passed on the M1 Garand, and M2 carbines because everybody had to qualify on those weapons very year anyway, but then we fired the 30 cal water cooled tripod mounted, 30 cal air cooled tripod mounted, BAR, 50 cal tripod mounted, 50 cal ring mounted on an APC, 45 cal grease gun, 3.5 rocket launcher, and then tossed hand grenades. We were going to fire the recoilless mounted on a Jeep, but it rained. Too bad you didn't have the real target.
