Best explanation of the high ready I've ever heard

Trained for years and made multiple entries low-ready w/mp5. High-ready with M4 is a game changer. Great vid ty

Lots of good info here Jeff. I do not plan to go into CQB situation, but I train for home protection and house clearing. Thanks for the video. You should do a video on this subject. Home Protection and House Clearing using an AR15, and my favorite, the Zpap M70!

Great video Jeff! I really enjoyed your analysis and discussion in this.

I'd love a video going over your sling and how you utilize it.

Very good. Learned a lot. Also i would love to see a video on 3-4 guys or larger teams clearing rooms.

Thank you for this Jeff!

Great stuff! Must implement in practice and reiterate to friends. Subbed!

Definitely a time and place for each. Thanks for the great info!

Great video! Learned a bunch from this ❤

Brilliant explanation of this subject

Great stuff! When I went to SFARTAETC they taught 1 & 2 man to be in low-ready, but the 3 and 4 man to be in high-ready.

In 10mtn were teaching high ready for movement and short stocking to turn a corner in cqb. Seemed easier to point shoot from

Best video to date. Love the content.

Awesome breakdown again

Such great stuff!!!

Clear and concise! New sub here!!

Important details 👍

Green Berets are great teachers!

Well done

From a combatives perspective, the "crash" scenario and going-hands-on leads to the opposite conclusion. If the adversary is controlling my muzzle and preventing it from coming UP, I can bend my knees and just launch him to create enough space to get on target. If the adversary is controlling my muzzle and preventing it from coming DOWN, I can struggle to maybe do those muzzle strikes... but I'm just raising my center of gravity and forcing myself off balance. This is related to the tall stance, heels close, giraffe neck body position that is becoming too common today.

Hey Modern Tactical, Thank you for these videos. It’s super interesting to hear all the history and development in gear. There is one piece of gear that is intriguing. The pipe looking grip on the bottom of the hand rail. In almost all the photos you show from the early 2000s, the M4s have them. Could you explain what they were used for? Do you know why they aren’t seen as much anymore?

Good video man. I have some weird hangups from shooting so much PCC in USPSA that my carbine handling skills look awkward AF because I am instinctively trying to prevent breaking the 180. Should give High Ready more of a chance.

any cqb i was doing in the shoot house high ready was a nono cause instructors up in the cat walk.lol

Thank you for another great video. I like how you wear your sling, most everyone runs the back end over the shoulder, and the front under arm, and this method works but the rifle tends to "nosedive". I also run the back end of sling under my arm, and the front end over my shoulder, I call it "guitar carry". Rifle tends to remain more horizontal, which i believe is more comfortable especially on recon patrol. It does help if sling is attached to lowest part on stock.

Excellent video as usual! What kind of bolt catch/bolt release device are you using?

Very informative video. Can this training be integrated using handguns? Your thoughts?

I am pretty much always in snack ready 🤣😂

Good stuff. Guys who care about this stuff should know that low ready is not low "compressed" or low retracted... whatever your terminology. But high ready is basically identical to high compressed. We find that in a stack or close proximity to teammates, go barrel UP. When you're the #1 man and have space, low is the way to go. A low compressed posture is usually awful, but for some reason LEOs are obsessed with this... probably because they prefer a low ready to high, but can't maintain it without flagging others, so they depress from low ready to low compressed. Instead, try low ready to high compressed when necessary.

Awesome Jeff, were u in 3rd or 5th?

Great video, content and the explanation. I see you also subscribe to the "tell, Show, do." method of teaching. Thank you for sharing.

Jeff, I know it is a photo and may be deceiving but it appears that in the room entry photos it appears you are neither on-line with the 1 and 2 men nor are you on-line with them (shooting past them from behind). If they were to run into a threat that pushes them back into your shooting lane isn't there a risk of a friendly fire incident?

I think there aren't big difference between two methods, most time take observing the situation and identify target

Algorithm.

"ready" means you already have your stock shouldered imho
