For the purpose of increasing the proficiency of members of the Police Department in the use of firearms the Board of Police Commissioners is hereby authorized and directed to prescribe such course of training in the use of firearms as it in its judgment deems proper, and may promote and conduct competitive contests in the use of such arms. It shall have power to authorize or require members of the Department to engage in competitions in the use of arms both within and without the State. The Board of Police Commissioners may in its discretion grant leave with pay to selected members of the Department while engaged in such competition; provided, however, that details for such duty shall be so arranged so as not to prejudice the efficient performance of duty within the Police Department.
