Mastering cover and concealment is crucial for survival in gunfights, which often occur at close range (under 7 yards). The primary goal is to break contact and set up a counter-ambush by observing the threat without being seen. Avoid 'flagging' by exposing body parts past cover, as this allows the adversary to time their attack. Effective tactics include maintaining minimal angles, using a stable shooting platform, and being ready to engage instantly.
