I forgot one........

No I haven't gone insane, it is detailed in one of the Coaching booklets that you can use the hole in the rivet of the bayonet grip as an Aiming Disk, if no official ones are available.

How they are used:-

The eye disc should be used to check steadiness and sight alignment. The instructor’s eye should be a yard from the muzzle of the rifle.

Hold the stem of the eye disc in both hands and rest both elbows firmly on the ground. The instructor then looks through the bole in the eye disc at the recruit’s eye, not at his foresight. To make the man lay a fresh aim, move your position slightly after each shot.

With this simple aid you can check and correct aiming, holding and, in later lessons, trigger pressing. You should have sufficient discs for half the squad to enable you to carry out practice using the master and pupil method. Improvised discs can be made out of cardboard or a representative snap target.

DO NOT HAVE DRILL ROUNDS AND EYE DISCS IN USE TOGETHER.

That's another one I participated in many years ago even though I didn't do it in my basic. When I taught we did it. Ours looked the same as those...didn't know about the bayonet handle rivets though.
