China News Service, Jilin, September 21 (Reporter Shi Hongyu) A 92G (modified) pistol is heavy in your hand, pressing the bullet into the magazine, pulling the safety open, aiming at the bull's eye - when firing, standing next to the gunman, you will feel the powerful air wave, and then there will be dust after the explosion on your head.
For 36-year-old Tan Xinyu, such a scene is happening almost every day. He has been with various pistols for the past 13 years.
is at the internal shooting range of Jilin Municipal Public Security Bureau, at least more than 600,000 bullets are fired every year. Tan Xinyu and other instructors are responsible for training to allow the majority of police officers to improve their shooting level. They must ensure the safety of law enforcement police and citizens in terms of technical and tactics.
As the deputy captain of the Police Training Brigade of the Police Training Detachment of Jilin Public Security Bureau, Tan Xinyu trains more than 7,000 people every year. When the police force encounters any questions about guns, he will find the answers.
After training, young policemen all believed that Tan Xinyu was the "combat power ceiling" of the police force - the pistol was extremely fast-firing, and it usually took no more than 25 seconds to disassemble and reassemble the pistol. "The gun is very powerful. I hope my colleagues have a high shooting level, but I hope they will not use police weapons when enforcing the law." Tan Xinyu explained that the use of police weapons in law enforcement means that the intensity of the case is escalating, and the use of guns is a critical moment. He does not want such a situation.
html September 21st is the day of the police force assessment. Tan Xinyu told the police who came to the shooting range about the key points of using guns. He used simple and easy-to-understand words to explain the principle and always emphasized safety: from small to pay attention to skin scratches, to large to reset the action after shooting. During the lecture, the sounds made by the pistol safety and magazines attract everyone.This knowledge comes from his 13 years of work experience. After graduating from university, Tan Xinyu was admitted to the police force as he wished. He is familiar with Sanda technology in college and teaches more bare hands. "I also wanted to talk about shooting at that time, but the conditions did not allow it."
"At that time, we were also fascinated by guns. Every time we trained live ammunition, I wanted to shoot more shots." Tan Xinyu recalled that when there were no bullets, he would try to touch the pistol a few more, dismantle the gun and then combine it. How to improve shooting level without bullets? Tan Xinyu's approach is to practice basic skills hard. It is not light to load a gun with bullets, so he went home to replace it with other heavy objects. His family felt his persistence from the changes in his skin and wrists - the calluses became thicker and the wrists became thicker.

Around 2016, the quality of equipment of the Chinese police force has been greatly improved, and Tan Xinyu can finally get more live ammunitions. At that time, he almost lived in the shooting range, which was open almost all day long - the police wanted to "make up classes" and ask for gun maintenance and other issues, so he could be found at any time.
Over the years, Tan Xinyu has fired countless bullets. Experts can see his level from his hands, wrists, and body movements. He breathed lightly while holding the gun, and his pistol was very smooth when it was rapid fire.
colleagues said Tan Xinyu's love for guns and shooting "always online." Without a team to train, he would improve his skills at the shooting range. "Improving shooting technology is boring, but he can always stick to the end." Over the years of working in
, Tan Xinyu has achieved a series of major educational and teaching results, and has also become an indispensable business backbone of the provincial public security education and training system. "No matter what kind of police we are engaged in, we must be rigorous and hard-working in our work." Tan Xinyu hopes that his efforts can protect the safety of the people. (End)
