Firearms Instruction Team
  MISSION STATEMENT  
  The Linn County Sheriff’s Office Firearms Team is dedicated and committed to instilling in deputies the skills, confidence and competence needed to protect themselves and the citizens of Linn County. Inherent in such a task is the legal and moral responsibility for us to instruct and encourage each deputy to attain the highest degree of expertise in the use of firearms as possible.  
  COMPOSITION  
  Our team is made up of 12 Linn County Deputy Sheriffs. These individuals are highly talented, certified firearm instructors who possess thousands of hours of combined firearms training and instruction.  
  SERVICE WE PROVIDE  
  Our team provides an array of services to the employees of the Linn County Sheriff’s Office. These services include monthly qualification with on and off-duty handgun, shotgun, rifle and less lethal weaponry. We provide annual in-service training which focuses on fundamentals as well as reactionary and decision making scenarios. We also conduct eight hours of instruction for our citizen’s academy which is held twice a year. This instruction is combined classroom and live fire exercise.
