I am sure these movies are posted on this forum but I was not able to find them.

Some sections appear to be missing (Part 1 sighting and aiming exercises).

Does anyone know where to get the complete set of these movies?

Notice a former RWVA member donated these to the archive (don't have a clue where he got them).  They even reference Appleseed (due to the comments of the former member).
"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles."

Thanks OD, that is the same link though.  I did see that an Appleseeder posted them that is why I assumed they have been posted here.

If you watch the first few minutes, you will see that they have already done Part 1:  Sighting and Aiming Exercises. 

Watching these movies is like going to a refresher RBC.  If we could find the complete set, they would be even better.


Maybe Jack A Sol is reading this and can let us know :)

How about this one.  It takes awhile to download for viewing or saving so I'm waiting to see what the content is.  There is more listed in this one that the last one so it may be complete.

Bringing up an old topic. Found the entire series of these on YouTube.

Rifle marksmanship with the M1 Garand
Great videos, with some of the exact stuff we teach. Great to watch, especially for those of us with a M1 hobby... (My wife says it's a borderline obsession)
