Learned this method while I was infantry in the Marine Corps l, this IS the way to do it, only thing I would say do different is when shooting on the move DONT criss cross your feet you can trip yourself up, rotate your upper torso like a tank turret to face your target moving sideways, keep walking foward
Rah! I was literally thinking the same exact thing.
Someone had to say it 💯
“Don’t cross your feet” is bullshit, you should know how to walk. We’ve been doing it for years believe it or not.
The whole "shoot while walking out in the open" thing is an overhyped concept. It is almost never appropriate in an infantry engagement. If you need to close with the enemy, you should probably be bounding in teams and the maneuvering infantryman should be SPRINTING to wherever he's going. If you're clearing a space around cover, you should probably be doing it a lot more slowly, one pie slice at a time, carefully inspecting and processing the space, and not just gliding around the corner.
@@sullathehutt7720 well ya its only if you abolutely HAVE to shoot on the move, still encouraged to shoot from behind cover after bounding from cover to cover and someone else doing the shooting to cover you while you move
Lean forward lol. I love watching newbies lean back trying to find the sights .
You can always tell by new shooters when they don't lean forward 😅 especially when we put them on a full turbo. LEAN FORWARD!
@@rachellabella107 lol.
Love the little dig at “2much recoil” guys by adding in the clip of Rachel absolutely killing it! 🤣
I call this the “take a shit in the woods” technique…. 😅
Thanks, camera girl. Great job. Appreciate the tips on proper shooting posture.
😜❤
Massive difference visible when she shoots it. Great advice.
Found your channel through your video on why the AK is becoming more popular. It made me get mine out that i bought years ago but was mainly just a range toy. Your videos are helping me immensely and your passion for this platform and for sharing your knowledge really shines through. Thank you.
New AK owner here. Just bought my WBP so I'll be a frequent visitor on your channel. Kudos for an outstanding job. Greetings from Poland!
Thanks Klay!! Tell Rachel to say "mmmBEEP" otherwise it just is odd watching you shoot.
Hahaha! THAT's what was missing, I knew something was off...😁
😂😂😂! Then you're gonna love the next video then!
I hope all the AR guys trying to hipsterize the AK realize they’re just being pansies about the recoil after seeing Rachel shoot
Best. Comment. Ever! 😂😜♥️
You say this like aks aren't the hipsters choice of rifle
@@josuev.2951 they are becoming. But it’s mainly the guys coming from their Gucci copy everything you see in movies ARs lol. Someone that shoots AKs doesn’t need a hot to control AK recoil video lol this is aimed at that target audience
@@josuev.2951nah, that's the SCAR/ACR 🙃
I bought my first AK after watching one of your vids. I've learned a lot from watching you. Thanks man! I share these with the boys.
🤜🤛
Klay runs an AK like a champ. Wise words from first person experience.
Thanks for all these instructional videos. They been helping me out quite a bit. Keep kickin ass.
Thank you Klay! so helpful. Keep em coming Please!
Appreciate the awesome content, can't wait for more!
Again, an excellent instructional video. I'm three-quarters of a century old and after watching this video, I think I might take the AKs out of the safe and go to the gun range today.
Thanks for all the great content and reviews you do! Your content is very undervalued and underrated
Great job Rachel as always!!
Thank You keep bringing out brand new videos
Love the videos keep doing what you guys are doing. Thank you.
Thanks man appreciate all of your content
Thank you, Sir, for the tips. Grand daughter #1 is learning to rock my braced Draco, this will surely help.
Just picked up an zastava m90 yesterday for 800 brand new!
The Fuck? 800? I paid 1700 for mine. It did come with 9 mags though. Did I get ripped off?
I piad 500 for a m92pv not to long ago.. I think you came out good at any price if that's what you want.. i got lucky it was a family deal and can't sell it unless i sell it back to them.. but I will never sell.
@@tomhengel7244 I wanted a good base 5.56 AK to build from
@@TheAir2142 dude the market on them is crazy everywhere online It was 1200 and up I was at a country pawn shop and got lucky
F
I'm loving these refresher videos. can always learn something new.
Keep the tips coming Klay...I need all the help I can get to crush K Bash this year!
Awesome informative video. It easily demonstrates the benefit to this shooting style. Kudos to Rachel and her camera skills
Thx camera "F" . Great instructional video!
Learn something every time . Great job
My ak doesn't push me around I take good care of it and we have grown a healthy working relationship based on trust from our mutual need to take care of each other in a way neither of us accomplish on our own
I tried this with a woman first but it is a way more fruitful relationship with an ak
😆
Very interesting tips in this video. I look forward to what you have to say regarding reloading. Thanks!
Thank you sir, that video will be out this weekend.
Great teaching moment on manipulation of an Ak-47 properly. Thanks again, brother.
This is great! I always felt I was missing something with my AK stance.
F. Thanks. Guys, I have heard this before (from you)but is Always worth repeating to us Blockheads! I have personally tried your method and this one point is singularly the one thing I keep hearing. "Think like You are about to wrestle a Tiger!" It has helped me, 63years old Control my weapon much better.
Man Klay, you're the shit. Keep up the great work.
This is awesome, thanks!
I usually shoot with my body square to the target, and hip is less so. right foot back and turned, left foot in toe to the target. I don't squat as much either. but then again I am shooting an AR15 MOST of the time when I shoot. just found your channel, and I'm loving all that I'm learning about AKs
I've found the Midwest Industries 2-chamber brake reduces 7.62 recoil to a negligible amount.
The caveat is that anybody next to you hates your guts, lol.
Sounds about right lmao. I’m looking at getting a DTK-2 for my Zenitco build and I’ve heard that thing barks lol
Thanks bro!!This helps out a lot. 😮
Cool vid. i already choke up on aks like that just naturally but i never get that low. ill give it a shot next range sesh. cheers
Great video, thanks. Rachael really closed the deal for me. If someone 110 lbs can do it, I should be able to do it too.
Thanks for the Intel brother.
Thanks! I will certainly try this. I love aks but I'm a smaller short guy at 5'3 to 5'5 I struggle with 7.62x39 recoil control.
If I can do it. YOU CAN DO IT! you got this! ❤
Really helpful video, thanks.....
Filming is much appreciated, R! Without it, the action is only rumor.
5:31 Sumo would definitely be more popular in America if there were AKs.
This is very helpful
Great video and information. Thanks for taking your time to show us great tips on these rifles.
Oh okay...I've been doing it all wrong I guess. Happens when you don't have training.😢Thanks.
Great stuff 👍👍👍
it's similar to the "horse stance" taught in kung fu.. it's said to build an immovable base.. which goes directly inline with what you're saying. i do it because it's good for my 40yr old hips.. can't wait to bring the AK out and give it a go
Interesting video!
Great video, great tips and - from an old geezer in his 70s - your wife is just precious, good on camera and good on rifle! You are a lucky man F F F
Thanks!
First time I tried to do bill drill with AK47, I understood what it will no go so easy as with AR :D Came to similar stance. Anyway requires a lot of practice. Thanks for helpful video!
very enlightening. i like it
very nicely done
F. Good stuff here for new and experienced. Gotta inspect the foundations once in a while.
Well done!
That sagia is awesome
The 74 brakes are really best for AKs especially Draco’s also magpul guards for heat/fold stocks and most important matte paint those irons ( i )
Thanks Cameragirl. Lil Tuffy. 😊
Could you do a video on how to control SKS recoil now?
@klayco47 I just started following your channel about 2 weeks ago. I'll admit when I first came across your channel I thought ok another guy with way too much money to spend on toys. Running around in the woods preparing for the just around the corner dooms day. Not that you can't pick up a tip or two from that type of stuff, but there is a lot of that on RUclips already. Then I really started to give you a good listen and the more I did the more I could see your passion for the AK platform. Which in it self was nice but the real selling point for me was your character never came off as jerky, plus your trigger control look like something from a shoot out at sundown in the old West. Now to see your proper handling and stance on controlling the AK and not letting it control you was what sealed the deal. I was holding my mouse pointer over your video right where your muzzle was to see if there was any major muzzle flip and the obvious answer was no. Then you had your Wife shoot as well and she too just freaking killed it. I'm a big guy at 6'3 and 260 and while I think I control my AK in regards to muzzle flip. I'm no where near you or your Wife. Class was in session and I'm here for all the smoke. I have a new red dot that I was planning on sighting in this weekend when I get to my local range. Screw that, now the plan is to record myself while shooting and make sure my handling and stance skills get the attention they need. I've already screenshot you in the proper position and printed it out so I can use it as a reference when I'm at the range. Thank you for taking the time to put these amazing and highly informative videos together. I'm sure you don't need me telling you as I'm sure you hear it plenty but your work is amazing and your skillset is that of "Warlord". Keep up the great work and educational content.
Man, you're common absolutely made my day. I greatly appreciate the kind words. And i'm happy to hear that you're getting some value out of the content. I'll be sure to let my wife know!
Thank you so much for your kind words. I hope my husband's videos do help you later on. Don't be afraid to get out and just do it! You got this! Thank you for being part of this journey with us! God Bless ❤
@@rachellabella107 My pleasure and thank you and @klayco47. You are both amazing and very inspiring. The way you both handle the AK by using technique and not force is extremely impressive. As a big guy I’m learning just trying to muscle the firearm is not the way to go the proper form that you both exemplify has me being a complete believer. Thank you both for taking the time to show the rest of us the right way to do it correctly.
Great video! I’ve seen the center T video. The real question is the right hand reload and how to properly do it. Looks like you need a strong wrist tendons.
Went out and tried this myself. I'm shocked as to how effective it is!
Thank you for some great teaching👍🏼 Nothing like the support of a great wife or woman. Whichever the case may be.
Damn good info and technics that I'm going to try at the Range Wednesday. Oh, was listening/ Watching while Shopping in Walmart. Volume was up and you should have seen the Looks/reactions 😂😂😂😂
Antigun normies faces:😮 😬😒
Awesome content as always when will u have more of the green lids in stock with the black mesh with the krink outline? I ordered one a while back and noticed it was a Lil deformed when I got it. The cushion was wrinkled up a little on 1 side inside of it. But it's getting worse. I no it ain't your fault just wanting but another cause I like it. I'll keep this one for when I'm running drills at the range. They grey krink one way fine it was just bad luck with that one. And I like to support the channel
Hi Tim! Please send an email to Third Pin Threads about your issue. Thank you for your support and business.
i fell in love with the thicker recoil of my zpap m70. so sawft. just like me.
I'm a magwell grip guy my arms get tired otherwise 😢
With sustained fire AKs get hot af quick. The magwell grip is fine. By the time your arms get tired you’re grabbing the magwell anyway
Need to work out your upper body more. Back & biceps together, chest & triceps together.
back to basics fuck yeah
I never once in my life thought that one could take advantage of a half assed Slavic Squat while operating an AK. Thank God I decided to watch this video and learned something from it.
"my mother wasn't a witch" why you do us leftys that way 😢
I felt that
It's a coping mechanism because ak's are truly best and the hands of a lefty
@@KLAYCO47 krebs ambi safeties on all my rigs🤙
Been doing it wrong the whole time.😢Thanks....
hey my brotha n patriot klay, hope you are well there , great great vid there n def. wanna talk more , LOVE talking armament n 2A allday hre , thanks n i will forever support you , i am a u.s. marine vet here 93' to 97' active ! > tom !
cool video
So happy to see Rachel shoot also. I am 5.1 and just practiced the stance. Recently got injured lifting my Mother (RIP Mama) but itching to take mine out and she made it look effortless. I was happy just watching you of course. I learned from my Daddy but seeing how it could look for my old ass was amazing. This is my first video I believe. Got recommended after one of Brandon's. 😊
I guess it comes down to two factors. How much you weigh and how much you lean into it.
Can you do a Video on Underfolders.
Some seem to forget this is recoil management taught by a competition shooter. It looks exaggerated because you need to wring the most out of yourself and your gear. Our enemies are cardboard, time, and sadistic ROs making you shoot tennis balls while standing on a trampoline. Am I going to duck walk in a firefight? Hell no! But in a course of fire where that shaves time? Then I'd quack if it improves my splits.
The other advantage of get low, tight, and inline is accuracy. Not having your sights bob and weave under recoil quickens the followups.
this muzzle break dampen recoil so much.can you do video on bare bone ak ?
God I love the AK all variants
Magwell grip is very comfortable.
It makes sense to me that the ideal position for firing the AK flat was Slavic squat - basically putting all your mass behind the gun.
I use the magwell grip when the handguards start getting super hot, I've tried that center T method, I hate it, uncomfortable, I square up though, but not that way, I can man handle 7.62 without doing that center T method, but too me it's a great method to learn recoil, I think that's why center T teaches it, Bec shows a way to handle it, I grew up shooting 7.62 rifles myself from SKS rifles to AKs and the method yeah it is unnatural definitely a back killer for me, and knee killer for me, but it is a great method to learn to taime that 7.62 caliber recoil
You have to do whatever works for you.
Before long curious minds may understand the shorter euro stock lengths.
Winter clothing also
Thanks for putting this together. Me too….my mother was NOT a witch. Hahaha! Made my day.
We AK’ers have a tough road ahead of us. Sourcing parts /aftermarket worth putting on our beloved AK platforms.
I am on the day banging my head trying to find the right place for furniture/parts for my 556 & 7.62 AK’s.
Any suggestions..??
Thanks to you both keep up the amazing content.
🤜🤛
Got my first AK in the form of a new WBP Jack headed my way 😁
The curve of the AK stock always poked my shoulder. Been thinking of butchering my AK and putting a M4 style stock. Maybe this stance will help with stock discomfort im experiencing.
Best sport to compare this to is baseball. Getting ready to take a ground ball or your on base Getting ready to run. Keeping a good base is important especially Getting ready to move.
You really can see the recoil difference with Rachel's stance for sure.
Because she's not pulling it back firmly enough. Hunching over would help a little bit but recoil control is mostly in the arms & chest.
Just curious as to what you're doing in regards to push/pull with both of your hands. No matter what I do, my shoulder is getting pushed backwards.
Rachel is a boss
I've never had to deal with recoil much since my AKM is a Nornco Type-56 the gas tube has ALOT of vents... So I don't think this will apply to me.
I also weigh 110 pounds but I'm 6 foot 1 inches tall... Maybe it'll actually work for me even with a soft firing chinese ak.
My m70 recoils straight back and easy to control. My wasr is like a bucking bronc so over gassed lol. Muzzle rises so much.
Will you ever review the RAK 556 from Palmetto State? I respect your opinion and i would like to know your thoughts about it!
Sure why not.
Running back stance 👍
A wild Rachael appears!
The gun store I work at has a case of brown bear 7.63X39. Are you interested?
Would that work for a ZPAP92 ? Since it’s a shorty?
That beer belly helps with recoil 😂
😅
Does this work with fals too???
