CNRFC currently has 132 LMTS equipment sets deployed to each Navy Reserve Activity in the U.S. Purchase of the 5-day training sessions required will augment the 132 existing LMTS deployed at Navy Reserve Activities throughout the U.S. It will provide for more effective and efficient small arms familiarization and proficiency for the drilling reservist.
