Neil from Geauga Firearms Academy explains the 'let it breathe' technique for one-man close-quarters battle (CQB) entry, emphasizing its use as a last resort for home defense. The core concept involves opening a door and pausing to observe before entering, creating an ambush opportunity for the defender by making their entry unpredictable. This method aims to gain the initiative by acting faster than a potential threat can react.
This three-day private course at Thunder Ranch, led by Clint Smith and instructor Jack, focused on a pragmatic approach to gunfighting. Key takeaways include prioritizing accuracy over speed under stress, understanding acceptable target zones, and applying one-man CQB principles, particularly when utilizing night vision. The training emphasized practical application in realistic scenarios, including unconventional shooting positions and developing proficiency with the off-hand.
