CQB FOOTWORK - Entries

Close Quarters Battle (CQB) or Close Quarters Combat (CQC) are skills utilized to fight within an interior of a structure. As a team there are ways and variation to conduct these skills and apply this knowledge. This one particular video is designed to help explain 'Why' and 'How' the #1 or #2 of a fighting element can enter a room smoothly, while in balance and able to take a well-aimed shot if necessary. The importance of being in balance while moving will assist with two major factors of successful CQB scenario upon entry; 1. Read the room and make sound decisions, and 2. Be in an asset to the remainder of the stack, not a clumsy liability.
Train smart, be consistent, always stay in the fight!

[@KEVENSIN]

I appreciate the video, thank you Something i learned, instead of being quick to critic. Just let them teach, even if its a repetitive class. There is always that possibility you learn something new. God bless 🤙

Excellent video. Solo room clearing. Have you done a video on that?

[@direct_action_combat]

Hi Jake, haven't made a video on that, but can add it to the list. Thanks.

Great footwork. So many people step inside foot first and it’s just so wrong

[@themeanestturtle]

Could this be considered a buttonhook?

[@CardShark440]

What brand of pants are you wearing? I like those reinforced fronts.

[@JohnSmith-ei6sc]

Watch his tactical clothing video. He mentions the brand believe it’s something from Sweden if I remember correctly.

[@jl4085]

Noticed the same thing and had the same thought. Looks like Fjallravens (either Keb or Vidda)

[@direct_action_combat]

Torakka - Swedish built. @morningstarsstrategic Canadian distributor.

Would you not want to retract the rifle, to minimize the chances of over exposing the muzzle?

[@gootusfootus3229]

Because him and the gun were already around the corner, why would he need to retract his gun if he can fit through just fine, that is so much better he can instantly engage the threat.

[@crisis-_0]

⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠@@gootusfootus3229man both of yall have good points here lol but retracting the rifle before entering the threshold will minimize exposing yourself as the threat wouldn’t be able to see and react fast enough to shoot depending on the skill of the threat. Now having the sight drop before hooking the corner also gives you way more time to eliminate/scan the situation vs having to punch the gun out of retraction to finish the job. Like I said depending on the threat and threat skills is when you should determine what movements and basic tactics should be used. :)
