This is something I've run into as a new shooter who was never athletic. I've been hitting the gym hard to remedy this and also after watching Garand Thumb's video on SHTF (If you're not fit you die). What muscle groups are most important to train to hold up a rifle? I feel like the left delts and left forearm would be most important. Any I missed?

Yeah and going even further down the origins of hunting shooting vs practical competition shooting vs combat shooting, now i just need to get this to my fathers thick head. Sure his excellent hunter, but for practical or self defense/combat shooting that does not work most of the time. Just to get the good from the hunter shooting and learn combat shooting on my own. Not that there is much use for it since self defense in general in here is highly illegal, but case there is situation of needing to use those skills its better to have them than not.

Just watched some retired SF guys hanging off the side of the cover with their long guns and stepping completely out from cover to shoot their pistols. One method does not fit all scenarios, stop passing them off as if they do. Know your audience and adjust fire accordingly.

So, John-- My usual training scenario for 'slicing the pie,' is to buy a pizza before hand, bake it, then *slice* it being careful to measure the angle of the pieces as I do... I then apply those *exact* angles to my body as I'm shooting. I guess my real question is: *should I be using an actual pie instead?* And, if so, what flavor? I'm sort of partial to coconut-- but I always find myself worrying about the filling spilling out a bit and ruining my accurate 'angle readings!' Do you think chilled pecan pie might be a better way to go? 🥧

Look up Las Vegas gunfights. They use actual guns but they fire paint rounds. It's bad ass. I guess they were originally used by the likes of swat for training. It's kinda like paint ball, but with real guns and they're way more accurate and life like. The guy who started it was my CCW instructor, which is how I learned about it. And when I learned about it, I was like " how did I not know about this sooner?!"

My father was the firearms instructor for our local police department and also on the swat team (since retired). He suggested one time to actually move back from cover instead of being directly on it because then you have more mobility and can take smaller slices of the battlefield. when demonstrating this he had me stand in our living room and he stood behind a wall. When he was right next to the wall I could see maybe 35% of his upper body. Head shoulder arm and rifle. But when he moved about two feet back from the wall he had the same field of view of me, but I could only see maybe 15% of his upper body. He was more concealed by the wall. Now this was for indoors and idk how well it would transition to out side combat . . .

If you are against a single attacker or if all of the attackers are closely grouped together then having some distance from cover works well. But if they are spread out and can see you from multiple angles then hugging cover is often better. If you are up against some weapons that can create spalling or fragmentation effects (like grenade launchers) then being too close to cover can be a liability.

I've done the sneaky in room clearing. Thought I was doing well. Good point that I need to incorporate. One thing I think about is: taking the knee. I feel like that's a good way to get a round in the face- I think about that because most people hold at center mass height. If your head is at that height.. Your plates are useless, your head is in the natural point of aim window. Just something that I'm questioning.
@Sophistry0001
@Sophistry0001 2 жыл бұрын
I'm not qualified to really talk about any of this, but I think the idea is to change up your location, both left and right as well as high and low. So that would increase the likelihood that someone trained on your cover will have to adjust their sights to get on you rather than you jumping out into their sight picture.
@ep6727
@ep6727 2 жыл бұрын
Believe it or not this is not as relevant as you might expect, it is actually very common to not get full or even half of a target visible in combat so the center mass concept goes right out the window and transforms into aiming center of the visible target, which is much different. You combine that with the general concept John in discussing here of minimizing your exposed area to incoming threats and you realize that isn't likely to be an issue.
@SergiuM42
@SergiuM42 2 жыл бұрын
I think that we train to aim at center mass, not at center mass height. The way I think of it is that even though your head would be at center mass height, an enemy would probably still go for your center mass (which is now lower because you’re kneeling). Plus, your head is still a much smaller target than your torso, even if all that the other guy was aiming at was “center mass height”. If that makes sense.

John actually missed the biggest mistake I see most people make when shooting around cover and that is compromising their ability to react to threats coming from another direction. He covers the main principle of this by explaining that you want to keep a solid base so you can move, but he didn't explicitly call out the need to be able to react to other threats or changes in the battlefield. This is especially common to see when people switch shoulders to shoot support side because then people often have the feet, body, and firearm in a unnatural position that they are not able to react from.

Excellent video. Competitive shooting is great for teaching you how to shoot accurately under pressure. But it is totally different from an actual gunfight, where people are shooting back at you.

Excellent block of instruction. Thank you. I did notice that when you gave your trainee the rifle he wanted to put his finger on the trigger. He caught himself, though. I learn a lot from these types of videos. Wish I had known this 20 years ago. Your stances appear to be way more stable than what I was taught and in turn I taught the same thing to my co-workers.

I played Professional Paintball for the team “Edmonton Impact” in 2004/05/06, and we trained exactly what you guys are doing here except it’s called “snap shooting” in Paintball. We did it allot faster, and played the cover tighter (We didn’t stick elbows out so much). We would train by having 2 covers and just standing in one position snap shooting each other until one of us is hit, then starting over. One good tactic was changing levels between shots (Squatting).

John Wayne said it in the Shootist on mentality. It about "being willing" kzbin.info/www/bejne/pouaY3uvr8qGapI. "Some men will blink, take a breath before taking the shot. I won't." Sums up the difference between tactical and competition. The target does not shoot back in competition.
