Air Marshal Qualification Course:
Stage 1
From a concealed holster, face a single target at 7 yards. At the start signal, draw and fire one round, hitting within the scoring zone. Carefully holster and repeat for a total of two single-round strings. The combined time for both strings cannot exceed 3.3 seconds—an average of 1.65 seconds per string.
Stage 2
From a low ready position, face the same single target and, at the start signal, deliver two rounds (as a controlled pair), hitting within the scoring zone. Repeat this once for two pairs, firing a total of four rounds. The combined time for both strings cannot exceed 2.7 seconds–an average of 1.35 seconds per string.
Stage 3
From a low ready position, fire six rounds into the single target scoring zone, in one rapid and continuous string. This is done once, and the par time is 3 seconds for the six rounds fired.
Stage 4
With a fully loaded handgun, face a single target at 7 yards from low ready. Fire one round into the scoring zone, reload, then fire one more round into the scoring zone. Repeat for two strings and four rounds total. The par time for the four rounds is 6.5 seconds—an average of 3.25 seconds per run.
Stage 5
From low ready, fire one round each at two targets spaced 3 yards apart, striking within the scoring zone. Repeat this once for a total of four rounds in two strings. The combined par time for both strings cannot exceed 3.3 seconds—an average of 1.65 seconds per string.
Stage 6
Place three targets, three yards apart. The shooter starts from the holster under a concealment garment, facing up range with their back to the targets. At the start signal, turn, draw and place one round into each target, within the scoring zone. Repeat this for a total of six rounds. The shooter will be required to turn to their right for one string and to their left for the other. The total par time for both strings cannot exceed 7 seconds—an average of 3.5 seconds per string.
Stage 7
Load one round into the chamber, leaving the empty magazine in the gun. From a standing low ready position, fire one round. The slide will lock back. Drop to one knee, reload and fire one more round. Both rounds must be within the scoring zone.  Repeat for two, two-round strings. The total time cannot exceed 8 seconds—a 4-second average per string.
Kahr Shooting Challenge Scoring
A bullet hole sitting on the target scoring zone border line counts as a hit. However, outside of the scoring zone border line is a miss.
