Duration: 45:00

This range day features UFC fighter Michelle Waterson-Gomez training with GBRS Group, focusing on their Basic Shooting Standards. Key takeaways include mastering weapon presentation from low and high ready, understanding height over bore for accurate close-range shots, and efficient combat reloads and rifle-to-pistol transitions. The session emphasizes foundational mechanics and the parallels between martial arts and firearms proficiency.

Quick Summary

Height over bore requires a 'CQB holdover' at close ranges, where shooters aim slightly above the target's center. This compensates for the optic being higher than the barrel, ensuring shots impact the intended point of aim.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the GBRS Basic Shooting Standards?

The GBRS Basic Shooting Standards are a series of drills designed to establish a baseline for shooter performance. They include Low Ready, High Ready, Rifle Bill Drill, 3 Body/2 Head, Combat Reload, Rifle to Pistol Transition, and the Check Drill, testing weapon mechanics, presentation, and accuracy under time pressure.

How does height over bore affect shooting at close range?

Height over bore means the optic is higher than the barrel. At close ranges, this requires a 'CQB holdover,' where you aim slightly above the target's center to compensate for the difference, ensuring your bullet impacts where you intend.

What is the purpose of the High Ready drill in tactical training?

The High Ready drill simulates close-quarters battle (CQB) environments. It trains the shooter to present the rifle quickly and effectively, using it as a striking tool if necessary, while simultaneously engaging the safety.

What are key principles for combat reloads and transitions?

Key principles include performing reloads and transitions within your 'workspace' to maintain situational awareness and weapon control. This emphasizes economy of motion and seamless integration of actions under pressure.
