Mike, you're a natural teacher. Love the videos, man.

[@fieldcraftsurvival]

Kevin Owens is an awesome addition to FS! He’s a natural teacher, and he obviously loves doing it.

[@fieldcraftsurvival]

Kevin is absolutely the best in the business! We are lucky to have him.

[@MrTec1911]

Manipulating the environment to increase contact points is an amazing technique! This is the stuff I come to the channel for. This is the stuff you guys put out which separates you from the rest- a complete approach to gun fighting and self defense. Great video, as always. Thank you Mattx2, Mr. Glover and Mr. Owens.

[@fieldcraftsurvival]

Sharing our experience is why we are here, glad you enjoyed the video!

[@Rambo-Donkey]

It's not always there but the training across all fronts allows for the muscle memory! Which in turn become natural actions..

[@chrismaurer2075]

I just subscribed. I tried to join the Army when I was 20 (1981) with the goal of becoming a Green Beret,but because of physical problem's I was turned down.I am now disabled and living on social security disability so when I watch these video's I can't help but think what could have been.I was also turned down by the Detroit Police for the same reason. Mentally I think I had what it take's to be a Green Beret, even my doctor's can't believe that I can push myself to keep walking without a walker or cane's.God Bless you guy's for your service and what you continue to do .Thank You

[@fieldcraftsurvival]

Glad to have you on the channel! Everybody’s path is different brother, keep pushing!

My father CSM Raymond D Burbank, was among the first Green Berets, joining in 1962.He served with the 10th, 7th, 5th, and 3rd Special Forces.He is buried at Ft Campbell Ky, 101st Airborne. He is my hero, and I miss him everyday .

[@CaveBear1031]

It's awesome how Mike and The Instructors get straight to the point without all the fluff and EGO B.S. Every one of these videos gives me something to take and build on. Thanks again Mike Glover and Fieldcraft .

[@mongoose621]

As an instructor, it's always a privilege to have the opportunity to train and instruct switched on professionals who want to be there and are willing to soak up excellent subject matter knowledge from their instructors. I had the opportunity to train a certain middle eastern ally's SOF. Let me tell you, it was the polar opposite of this. It was like trying to herd cats. It made the job very frustrating and not enjoyable, unlike what this range day looked like. Great video.

[@stevena.2198]

Mr Glover, this is really solid advice. Thank you and to Mr Owens for sharing. His methods on securing oneself onto the environment changed my perspective.

[@1Teejay76]

Thank you for showing the squatting when transitioning from standing to kneeling. Many don't know squatting position exist.

Awesome!! We are glad to hear that!! That’s why we do it!

[@berata45]

Mike, you remind me so much of my old platoon Sgt, he was a great no-nonsense dude didn't care about stupid stuff just the outcome. If you didn't do it by the book but it got the desired result that's all that mattered. Hope to come train with you soon!

[@t.c.2527]

[@jyd1384]

These trainee guys had been experienced a valuable training course through the honorable soldiers on the training field in the video. SF, the Green Berets is my first favorite army organization in the US military and they suggested this nice video for KZbin users. Nice video and nice drill SGT for sharpshooting.

Too bad they’ll be using it on us when the confiscations start 😂

[@tjlovesrachel]

I think I learned more in this video than I did in an entire class. *Edit: A class I won't mention, nor recommend.

Thank you for clear and concise advise to get more accuret shots out to a target and minimise my chance of getting hit.

[@kopingkiller]

Interesting. Thank you for having a KZbin channel! I attended a defensive pistol class that included positional shooting, but it was a basic 101 class so didn’t get into shooting through position changes. It’s something new I just learned by watching your channel. Thank you.

[@fieldcraftsurvival]

[@stormtrooper7020]

[@KillKyle712]

Everyone focuses on shooting tactics but nobody really ever covers what to do if your weapon DOESN'T shoot. Would love to see more weapon malfunction training vids. Anyway, enough ranting, this was a pretty awesome vid. Thanks forr sharing..

[@amosmoses9247]

Kevin's comment about the 20 round magazine is spot-on. The 20's shorter profile allows the rifle more flexibility in finding that stable position from an awkward shooting location. Even the 10 round mag has a place especially for a swat member whose round count in an engagement is typically low, in the single digits even.

[@lawofliberty3517]

So certain politicians just want us to be more tactical and ergonomic 🤣

[@dangerousfreedom5340]

[@Spoons7414]

My “mountain climbers” consist of variations of this in my house with a mag full of dummy rounds for some sort of weight familiarity. Obviously I’m not cracking off rounds in my basement so I’m missing out on the shooting aspect but the movement mechanics I’m able to keep sharp. Anyways, love the videos and the podcast. Thanks for all the killer content.

[@chloehennessey6813]

Cool. I like that solid, stable, durable mantra. Once you start thinking about it when shooting. Not even this kind of shooting- Defensive or offensive. Just me on the range having fun with my AR you start to think that -solid, stable, durable. Wish I could come to a course. Few more years 😥😢

Absolutely, it applies across any type of shooting, we would love to have you at a class!

Not the "alternate positions" video I was originally looking for but this will do.

[@chriscrusader5412]

Excellent! It just all makes sense!

[@Uknowjustin]

Lovely upload

[@whomagoose6897]

Things must have changed a bit. Decades ago in my Infantry days the technique was to hold the top of the butt stock in your right, or dominant, hand to use the rifle as a way to "break" your fall as you settle into the prone position. Now many people hold the pistol grip with dominant hand and use the non dominant hand to brace yourself as you land in the prone. Just an Infantry ground pounder, 11C. No 18x codes in my DA-201 file.

[@badone588]

1. When breaking shots through position changes, should I hold the butt in my elbow like a brace? 2. Could I use my buddy as a point of contact? 3. Thanks for the video

[@aphysique]

Transverse, sagittal planes... A Strong core & of course good kness are needed, to change to these positions quickly!

[@sentfromdaniel]

13:00 in. Should I lean alittle forward in to my rifle so that the stock is flat with and in “the pocket” of my shoulder? Also, fight stance is how I position my legs while shooting. Is this wrong to do? Sorry, Im a newb to the Armalite Rifle

[@Lemurai]

The only thing I ask from SWAT cops is KEEP YOUR FITNESS, I got a chance to hang out with my cousin a few weeks ago, he’s a SWAT guy and some of his team mates were looking a little soft, I don’t get it when a couple of them were single with no kids, they have all the time in the world to stay right year round. I can’t imagine seeing guys look bad like that in relation to the job they are charged with carrying out. Shooting is good but damn, stay tight too.

[@salted2096]

do swat officers have a fitness requirement like they have in the military? if not they should implement that.

[@frostbitepokin9520]

Salted they do but I think the requirements aren’t as difficult as the military(some units)

Wish you could tell what suppressor that guy is running. It’s pretty quiet....

[@vilchenburgbodesky1]

How do you feel about always reloading in your workspace

[@shibaspeed]

Curious about the taller Matt's rifle setup. Is that a linear comp as his muzzle device? Wonder why he went with that over a suppressor or a flash hider.

[@stevewilson4514]

Most likely because of the cost. I imagine a lot of their gear is THEIRS. Few departments buy all that high speed gear for their teams. If you see guys from the same team different gear and weapons set ups, it’s an indicator the guys are using their own equipment. If you see a team with a high degree of uniformity then they are a well funded team using issued gear.

[@AaronWanamaker91]

Thank you for posting this! I just want to double-check to make sure I understand this, when getting into a firing position, you showed holding the gun at the barrel, with the rest ice your hand coming to the stock. I have left hemiplegia, so, my left arm/hand has limited range of motion. Would that be a safe enough point t to hold the gun, as opposed to the stock resting in my left hand?

[@richarddeveas4537]

What range was this held at?

[@elbryan9]

I know this is bit off topic but, is there a good reason to have that peq-15 so far back? Seems like with his hand placement that he would very likely block the laser whenever he tried to use it.
