You CAN graduate without doing live fire. They will try to get it made up for you, but if they can't they can't. In those cases you will graduate as long as the recruit participated in all the classroom portions of firearms training except the actual pulling the trigger. They do need to be present at live fire however. If thats the case they will complete the training requirements and graduate boot. If they miss it from being SIQ or anything though they will have to either make it up or ASMO back to get the training. They usually make it up. If they don't shoot but take the courses they will not have a marksmanship ribbon. You also may not get the ribbon if you shoot twice and both scores are below ribbon qualifying. Those are the only people who will not have a marksmanship ribbon at PIR, those who didn't shoot and those who didn't get a qualifying score. Mostly its those who didn't shoot.
