This guide, presented by a Tactical Rifleman Instructor, demonstrates how to utilize a vehicle for cover during a live-fire scenario. It highlights that the engine block is the primary reliable cover point, with the wheel hub serving as secondary. The demonstration includes firing 5.56 rounds to show penetration and fragmentation patterns, emphasizing that most other under-car areas are not secure.
This video from Tactical Rifleman debunks common Hollywood misconceptions about using vehicles for cover. Rob explains why the engine block isn't always the best option and emphasizes the critical importance of seeking cover behind the rear wheel hub, specifically the solid rim, to avoid shots skipping under the vehicle and incapacitating legs. He further advises on maintaining a stable stance, like feet one in front of the other, to maximize protection. The video promotes proper cover techniques for survivability and directs viewers to Tactical Rifleman's Patreon and other resources.
