I've met active duty seals and other Tier 1s, and they are pretty chill in general. That is just part of their demeanor, likely part of their mental compartmentalization. I was joking with some a few years back when they were showing off some of their equipment fresh from factory, and the compass on their boat was cracked all on the inside layer. They actually have tried everything but shooting it to see what would crack it, they got the factory to replace it before deployment.

There are nice guys.

It’s because he shaved his beard 🧔

Just rolls up like, “hey man how you doin? I’m just gonna DA you real quick and then I’ll be out of here. That cool? Alright cool.”

@@Teddy_______ lmfao

And they come down to our level using ar pistols with magpul mbus iron sights... none of that gucci shit

Pop A Dock lol

Pop A Dock I think any SOF / SOCOM / Tier 1 guy should gain permanent, lifetime exemption from pretty much all gun laws, especially the NFA. If you reached master status with a 10.5” SBR in the military, there is zero justification for barring you from having one after you retire.

bet the terries also watch these on YT xd

drjones762 how bout getting rid of the sbr laws in the first place because it is the most stupid gun law

Great to hear!

I've been doing in speedsoft just for that very reason. I do the same with pistols 😎

Welcome aboard!

************* ikr ...like get on my level 🙄

we are all marine sarge on YT, never forget, all of us already done Hanoi, plus we made coffee hot back in the days .. xd

Thank you

You’re welcome, glad you got something out of it.

He's a busy guy...

@@TacticalHyve concise delivery of knowledge. I will wait patiently!

Thanks!

Glad you liked the video!

Now ask yourself why Delta and Ranger Regiment use low ready. It's not because of shoot house Cat Walks either.

@@LRRPFco52 I'm a Ranger and I can attest it is in fact shoot house rules that had us using the low ready. I never liked it because it's easy to strafe your weapon across your team members legs, but rules were rules. Interviews with Larry Vickers will confirm.

i think where they are in trouble the most is at night, terries don't have NVG's

We will plan some cqb videos in the future.

Yes most everyone has bullets facing rear, beer can grip. I don’t believe they “must” be facing forward. But yes, pointing to the right if you are reloading from a plate carrier and are right handed. And a two point sling.

I love comments like yours, its really what make KZfaq comments just the best😁! Was your time downrange spent being a sling and mag peeping tom? My last firefight (2007), was in flip flops with my mags in a bag and my toothbrush in my shorts waistband, dropped my toothpaste somewhere though, critique that!

Glad you liked the video!

Because high ready takes into account actually melee fighting with the weapon, something sort of archaic by modern standards

LMAO😂

Nah. Not even close. One of the biggest problems we have in the USA is douchebags who think it's cool to disrespect or make fun of another person. Asian cultures have a culture of respect. I grew up in Asia, so I know. I was shocked, even back in 1991 when I returned to the USA, how much disrespect americans have for each other. Shameful. This dude deserves your respect. He was willing to die to protect your freedoms. Just because you live in a country that gives you the freedom to say whatever you want, doesn't mean that it's beneficial to say it, especially when it's hurtful or disrespectful.

Yes

You never sweep the guy in front. Do that and you just kinda go away. Never to be seen again.

I used the 1.93 in mount. Helps

Many people always think one or the other, and units will have their preferences. But the best will always know both and let the situation dictate which one they use. There are pros and cons to each method. Even the low ready, as many in the Army do it (which varies from other units), has blind spots, e.g. imagine someone crouching. A traditional low ready will allow you to see them, but the low ready you described would block one's vision. Pros and cons to all of them. Anyone who tells you one is better than the other has a very narrow view of things.

irishdefense77 Thank you for your service! There’s a video comparing these 2 styles; one SEAL vs. one Green Beret: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bN2UZcl73JbIgqc.html Hope that is helpful.

It definitely is a great teacher!

@@TacticalHyve you’re right. It is a special kind of stimuli. Looking at your site. Classes look legit, thinking of signing up. Thanks for the content.

Glad you like the content! Hope to see you in a class!

Good question. This is Myles from Tactical Hyve replying. If you want to ask Greg directly, the best way is via our forums where he's available to answer your questions. In the meantime, I can share what I"ve learned from our subject matter experts. It all boils down to the reality that there isn't one way to do things and understanding the concepts and principles behind techniques are much more valuable than the techniques themselves--as one technique may not work for another person. I've often been taught that proper finger placement is usually going to be between the middle of the fingertip (i.e. between the tip and the first joint) and the first joint. You'll have to find what works most natural and best for you. I've seen great shooters with different finger placements, both on pistols and rifles, and their placement has fallen between the middle of the fingertip and the first joint.

Being a Ex-SpecOps & a master trainer, I would like to share my experience and what I deliver to my students is, every person has different body mechanics, so handling of weapons will be different accordingly. As far as the placement of finger on trigger, it's always different when you are using Pistol or when you are using Rifle. On Pistol trigger, it must be the center of first joint and on Rifle it must be the first joint to control the jerk of recoil on your finger. Next time when you practice with your Rifle, you can notice the difference between both techniques, try this one out and feel more comfort, you will not feel the jerk of recoil on your finger.

Your finger falls on the finger where it falls and allows you to press the trigger with the least amount of sight disturbance. We are all differently built and you must find what works for you. After hundreds of thousands of dry fire and live fire shots I have my finger with the actual joint on the trigger. If you have small hands, that would not be possible to do without contorting your hand. Spend more time finding what actually works for you than trying to imitate others.

I’d say if you’re pointing at something or someone you’re already prepared to shoot, why risk forgetting about the safety in a situation where you could get hurt
