How To Control Rifle Recoil

[@DThunder85]

I just hit 16 years in the military. I'm not a terrible shot but could always improve. This kid just gave me the most efficient explanation for recoil management I have ever heard/seen.

[@50shadesofcerakote]

cant rely on the military for a damn thing. even shooting. haha

[@russ8059]

Then you have terrible marksmanship coaches

[@atlanticdefense3818]

With some obvious exceptions, the US Military's Small Arms Training has been in dire need of new thinking and overhaul for a long time now. Most of the personnel I've seen fresh out of basic and advanced training are lacking in even fundamental skills and to the point they need and should be re-trained so they can be moved to more advanced weapon handling skills that build and allow them to confidently maintain those perishable skills. The Military does in fact have very good basic and advanced marksmanship instructors and advanced weapon skill instructors but the overall basic and advanced programs could use some valuable forward thinking changes. Some may agree or disagree with my, it's just my 30+ years of experience & seeing what does and doesn't work well over those years.

[@jacobstaten2366]

Best part is how calm and humble he is about it. No macho posturing.

[@gdoumit]

@@atlanticdefense3818 As a former 6 year Army Infantryman, I completely agree. I entered the Army without ever having handled a firearm in my life. I was age 20. I was actually surprisingly good, but my Drill Sergeant chocked it up to me not having bad habits related to prior firearms experience. After I was in the Army a few years, I noticed many people coming out of basic and into my unit with really mediocre shooting skills. I eventually retrained most of the people who were fresh out of basic. Don't even get me started on shooting with anyone who aren't in combat roles. Their marksmanship training is laughable at best. It all needs a big overhaul. This video is excellent and this guy has zero military experience. Just good training. I love it.

[@jmar3011]

WOW! I've been in a tactical unit for 4 years and have trained with a large number of experienced instructors, but I've always found that my accuracy was not where I wanted it to be will rapid firing. Instructors would always tell me to "tighten that up" but none would take the time to explain how to or tell me what exactly I needed to change. No one has ever explained me how to manage recoil in such a detailed way as you just did. Thanks Lucas!!

Lucas I really hope you see this. After watching this video I went out to the range the following day with the Combat Arms instructor in my unit. I was able to make headshots in rapid succession with an AK and keep my muzzle almost completely flat. Before your video I would need seconds between hits to require sights and get back on target. This has changed my life, and I'm a better first responder as a result. I can't thank you enough. Hopefully you'll put one out on pistol as well. I'm ready to have my world changed again. God bless

Most won't even know how to properly lay an ambush or even conduct fire and maneuver. Hostage Rescue, Counter Terrorism, Special Reconnaissance, Psychological Operations. Even Basic things like Sniper camouflage aren't really taught to much. Not to mention you won't neccesarily be as good as someone who does it for a living, (for example T.Rex Arms shoots better than most people because he does it for a living...) and guess what when you learn military tactics as a Civilian who the fuck is teaching you....

Sound and solid technique here. Some things you pick up by years of practice and some things you have to be taught. I’ve been shooting pistols and rifles of various types for over 48 years and I still learn something new. They taught us this in room-clearing maneuvers a long time ago and while practicing double taps. I can assure you, this man here knows what he is talking about and he presents it in one of the most simplistic ways. I wish he had been our instructor back then. I like this guy’s way of teaching.

[@idlehour]

Predictive (as predictive as a gun is capable of consistent grouping) and recoil control can be the difference between bullets hitting on point or controlling a fully auto to throw some rounds down range, to some bullets jumping up more than you could imagine. Knowing your gun, and essentially making it an extension to your own body is crucial Thx for the video.

[@JohnSmith-td3vq]

When I went through MCT in 2013, the instructors taught the "feet shoulder width apart, only slightly offset" and I remember it pissed me off so much because it's horrible for recoil management. I would try to sneak my right foot back to get a better base and I would get smoked when I got caught. Pretty sad Lucas is doing a better job teaching rifle shooting than the Marine Corps at the time.

[@untitledname1703]

Your instructors sucked because when I went through in 2010 they told us to get that leg back more and lean into it to reduce the recoil. When I trained my Marines I taught the exact same as this video. This kid is doing a wonderful job and actually keeping his content reliable and accurate.

Yeah dude, I went through in 2015 and our instructors told us to get in almost a basic warrior stance to help with the recoil

I started out shooting AR-15's in service rifle competitions when I was a teenager. When shooting service rifle, you always mount your stock high to avoid having to cock your head to see the sights.

Mr. Aimbotkin, I'm just about your age. Thank you so much for this priceless content. It has helped me progress rapidly. Sincerely, A teacher who can barely carry because of draconian laws... damn liberals 😡

[@abeljuarez2275]

Best video I've seen Mr. T Rex. I really like the concentration on small circles. Helps me see which way my different rifles move when shooting. Thank you very much. Very well explained. Keep up the great work. I def subscribed.

Hey man I own a lot of firearms and have been around guns all my life and you showed me something new nice job keep it up

[@chadl.981]

Lucas, love everything you put out and appreciate all the tips and advice, however what is with the darkish-blue/green filter you are using on your recording device? It just does not look natural. Regardless, keep up the awesome work!

[@dmoose7066]

Branding, everyone recognizes these videos super easily due to the filter

[@hellooperator6639]

Can't stand the green tint either. The info is good, but it's hard to watch.

[@AlphabetBoisAreSmelly]

Not sure how old you are but you shoot better than most marines ive worked with and that’s saying alot, we shoot very well, i will be incorporating these techniques from this point on

[@Frostbyte911]

Goddamn, I wish I could train with you for a week.... great video man, keep them coming, I try and soak up every one you make

[@josephmoore5069]

Great video Todd, really good information. Your teaching skills are as sharp as your shooting.

6:44 uses video game analogy to explain recoil management... this man knows his audience.

I just wanna find ranges like yours! 😭 you’re seriously goals, both in guns and skills. 🤘🏻 really learn a lot and love your videos. 💙

Great video awesome tips, after watching this I managed to close my groups a lot closer together after 5 mins of applying these tips. great video

[@Michael-mn4ef]

Aside from reloads, what is it that makes bull pup weapons so much less common than standard rifle types?

[@fosty.]

Not sure if this has anything to do with it, but I've heard guys say they don't like a little explosion going off just under their cheek.

[@chrispoole8630]

Shity triggers..

[@hgarza1136]

All the free info in these vids are great. I've seen so much improvement in just taking the info from these vids. The dry fire training tips really show. If i were to take a class though I would feel the money would be well spent at TREX.

[@clinthavoc4331]

Holy shit a video game technique actuality translated to real life

He's so good at giving instruction, I could care less if what he says is BS or facts. He might be the best I've ever seen at firearm instruction. The pace is perfect. Everything is concise. He knows his shit. IMPRESSIVE as hell! This young man is a star in the making.

[@jbparker37]

I hate watching these videos... because of Lucas and Daddy I always end up putting huge white or blue numbers on sides of all of weapons, magazines and optics. I am still not sure why I am doing this.

[@jbparker37]

@Tyrannical Grim Daddy refers to Daddy Garand, or Mike rather, from the KZbin channel "Garand Thumb".

[@jbparker37]

@Tyrannical Grim "Garand Thumb" is the name of his channel. Daddy Garand is his stage name and Mike is his government name. You should visit his channel. It is just as informative as Lucas' channel here.

[@bulletprufpudin]

Numbering your mags is so you can keep track of them. If I’m running different drills and start having issues on mag JH54 then I mark an X on it, if I get to 3 X’s the mag is dead to me. But when you’ve got 100+ mags you need a way to track them. That is what most guys number their mags for I’ve found, JH being my initials so nobody can steal my stuff too.

[@juki009]

@@jbparker37 @Tyrannical Grim .... Garand Thumb's channel is as informative but 100 percent more homoerotic.

[@NTurman]

They always make it look cool. Mine look like a child did it. I started marking my mags. It’s a good habit once you get a few. If you have problems you can narrow it down.

[@bronxwarrior319]

This guy is good not just his shooting. His method and mindset is solid.
