The drill looks awesome. A question if I may - in that scenario the hostile was running away from Palmer but as you have been in the GWOT, surely in other more likely scenarios if your primary/rifle failed to engage then the hostile would likely not run, and so whilst transitioning to your secondary you would not run toward the target, but rather seek cover/move laterally whilst transitioning/walk forward whilst transitioning rather than run forward? Again, I am a civilian and your experience is important.
I was not in the military. The Palmer situation was a hostage rescue and therefore speed was a high priority, so he pushed the threat. In other contexts, it would be better to bail and allow your teammate to take the threat.
@@gungnirstrategic Thank you very much for your perspective, I'd also not considered bailing and letting my teammate address the threat, this makes perfect sense! Thanks!
its always the big debate/difference between HR and "normal" CBQ aka fighting terrorists. The goals are different though, so the moving is..the drill is good. for some reasons u can change it..more cover, more shots..whatever u want :)
Completely new to firearm tactics, but have a little martial arts experience. While transitioning, you kept your body square on the target. Why not shift your frame and reduce your profile? It would seem to me that bringing your right shoulder forward would have also made it easier to grab your secondary weapon.
In short, hips towards threat is a better stance for shooting, presents your armor towards the threat (if you are wearing armor), and blading would present your flank to the threat. If shot, you will get double lunged.
@@gungnirstrategic makes sense and it's an interesting bit of inverse logic. I'd take a kick to the side over one straight on in class any day, but I guess kicks tend not to get to my internals. Thanks! Hope you're channel takes off.
in detail, make what u want to do. nothing is writen in stone. some points in combat are in direct relation to your gear/equipment/weapon and for that reason its is the best to do this or that... etc etc.. but most of the time u can say: do what works good in that situation for u...
This is an absolute hidden gem of a channel
Thank you for watching!
Agreed! Been binging for 2 days.

Dang I never even thought of getting double lunged.
