Frequently Asked Questions

How do you perform a one-handed 'tap-rack' for a rifle malfunction?

Move behind cover. Tap the magazine firmly against your knee or thigh to ensure it's seated. Then, brace the rifle against your sternum or body and rack the charging handle to clear the malfunction and chamber a round.

What is the technique for a one-handed bolt-lock reload?

After reaching bolt lock, move to cover, engage the safety, and drop the empty magazine. Secure the rifle between your legs or under an arm. Retrieve a fresh magazine using a 'beer can grip' and insert it firmly into the mag well.

How can you stabilize a rifle for a one-handed reload?

You can brace the rifle against your body, specifically your sternum or chest area. Additionally, using your holster or belt can provide a stable point to help manage the rifle while you manipulate the magazine with your free hand.

Why is it important to use cover during rifle malfunctions or reloads?

Moving to cover before addressing a rifle malfunction or performing a reload is crucial for safety. It minimizes your exposure to potential threats, allowing you to focus on weapon manipulation without being an easy target.
