Frequently Asked Questions

What is the 'game of angles' in a car gunfight?

The 'game of angles' in a car gunfight refers to the tactical decision of how to position yourself relative to cover, like a vehicle. Peeking over the hood increases your field of view but also makes you more visible to threats, requiring careful angle management.

Why must you cant a rifle when shooting over a car?

You must cant the rifle to compensate for the sight-to-bore offset, typically 2.5 to 2.6 inches on an AR-15. Without canting, your shots will likely impact the vehicle itself rather than your intended target due to this offset.

What are alternative firing positions for vehicle defense?

To minimize exposure during a car gunfight, consider alternative firing positions. One effective method shown is shooting from a prone position underneath the vehicle's chassis, offering a lower profile.
