The Double Tap is Outdated

This video emphasizes the significant utility of the .22 LR rifle, particularly for its cost-effectiveness and low recoil, making it ideal for consistent practice, teaching new shooters, and small game hunting. The instructor highlights how the .22 LR allows for more trigger time, enabling shooters to focus on fundamental skills like trigger control, sight alignment, and follow-through without the financial burden or physical discomfort associated with centerfire ammunition. It's presented as a practical tool for skill development and everyday problem-solving.

This video details a fundamental shooting drill originating from the high ready position, emphasizing target acquisition and front sight focus. The drill involves three shots, with a recommended sequence of two to the body and one to the head, designed to improve accuracy and speed in dynamic shooting scenarios.

This video emphasizes the critical interplay between grip, sights, and trigger control for accurate shooting. It introduces a drill focused on placing 20 rounds within a 1-inch square at 3 yards, highlighting the importance of diagnosing shot errors by attributing them to specific fundamental mistakes. The instructor encourages shooters to analyze whether a miss was due to grip issues (e.g., thumb pressure, hand position), sight alignment/picture errors (e.g., not using the top of the sight), or trigger manipulation faults (e.g., slapping the trigger).

Joel Park, an expert competitive shooter, explains why compensating for shooting errors by aiming differently is a detrimental practice. He emphasizes addressing the root cause of misses, such as trigger control issues, rather than applying 'band-aid' solutions. The video demonstrates techniques for improving sight recovery during drills like the one-shot return, highlighting the importance of minimizing input and focusing on finesse over force for consistent accuracy, especially as distances increase.

This video highlights the benefits of using a .22 pistol for training. Key advantages include low cost of ammunition, minimal recoil for practicing fundamentals, and familiarity with duty-size gun controls. It emphasizes that .22 pistols are fun and cost-effective for frequent range visits.

This video provides a fundamental aiming technique for new shooters engaging steel targets. By dividing the target into thirds and aiming for the top third, inexperienced shooters can better compensate for common errors like shooting low and left, effectively making the target larger and increasing the probability of a hit.

This guide details the technique for firing the Micro Uzi in full-auto, as demonstrated by Dave Merrill and Dave Rhoden on RECOILtv. It emphasizes proper grip, stock usage, and recoil management due to the firearm's high cyclic rate (1250 RPM). The instruction highlights the effectiveness of the compensator ports in controlling muzzle rise during intense firing sequences.

This video provides an expert-level look inside a real Ukrainian arms room in 2024, showcasing a diverse array of weaponry from Soviet-era relics to modern Western platforms. Host Iain Harrison, RECOIL's editor, details the logistical shift towards NATO standards and highlights specific weapon systems in use by Ukrainian forces in Eastern Ukraine. The entry emphasizes the practical application and integration of various firearms and munitions in a high-intensity conflict zone.

This entry details the extensive career of Billy Waugh, a legendary figure in US special operations and intelligence. It covers his early life, military service in Korea and Vietnam with Special Forces and SOG, pioneering HALO jump techniques, and advanced intelligence gathering operations in Africa. Waugh's expertise in clandestine surveillance, tracking high-value targets like Carlos the Jackal and Osama bin Laden, and utilizing night operations in challenging environments is highlighted.

This guide details the field stripping and basic operation of the PKM machine gun, as demonstrated by Iain Harrison of RECOILtv. It covers disassembly steps including barrel and bolt carrier group removal, as well as loading and unloading procedures. Harrison, an expert with high authority, highlights the PKM's Soviet construction and unique feeding mechanism compared to Western designs.
