Videos tagged with Prone Unsupported

This video challenges the notion that short-barreled AR-15s (specifically an 11.5-inch BCM) are inaccurate at distance. The instructor demonstrates grouping from various unsupported and supported positions at 140 meters, showing that acceptable combat accuracy is achievable. The content emphasizes practical application over theoretical limitations often cited by 'fuds'.

This video details a marksmanship challenge where the US Army's 25-meter rifle qualification course is shot using a 1911 .45 ACP pistol. The instructor demonstrates prone supported and unsupported shooting positions, and later attempts standing positions. The challenge highlights the difficulty of engaging reduced-size targets with a pistol, especially with iron sights, and compares performance across different shooting styles.

This video details the prone unsupported firing position, emphasizing the importance of the gun target line, natural point of aim, and shooter gun angle. The instructor, from the Trench Grenade channel, explains how to establish a stable position by aligning the body with the weapon, using the 'chipmunk cheek' method to find the natural point of aim, and adjusting body position (hips) for alignment. Recommendations are made for specific magazine types and techniques for added support when wearing body armor.

This video provides a reaction and analysis of basic marksmanship training for Air Force reservists, focusing on zeroing procedures and shooting fundamentals. The instructor highlights the importance of battle sight zeroing for effective engagement at distance and critiques common errors, such as nose placement touching the charging handle, which can negatively impact accuracy and follow-through. The analysis also touches on proper grip techniques and factors affecting overall marksmanship.
