All feedback was positive, indicating that the techniques are extremely effective in their application.įor purposes of clarity, I consent to Athlon's collection, storage, processing, and transfer of my Personal Data and Non-Personal Data as defined in the Privacy Policy for the purpose of signing up for the email newsletter. The system is comprehensive, complete and proven. Traditionally however, this may have caused many sight-picture challenges. An operator using a monocular night vision goggle has more peripheral vision than with a set of goggles. Inside an automobile, plane, Humvee or even on a motorcycle, C. There is simply no better way to shoot from a vehicle. Putting the gun in my left hand and taking aim with my right eye proved to be very effective. In theory then, my left hand should be very strong. Being right-handed and right-eye dominant means that I am most likely left-brained. Since the possibility of taking a debilitating hit in the reaction side arm or hand exists, any practical firearms training should teach simple, reliable ways to clear and reload firearms with only one hand. The ability to switch quickly from a left-handed to a right-handed grip may allow an operator to navigate hallways and cover corners more effectively. Volleys like these can buy the time and distance needed to transition to sighted fire. The slightly modified grip for the High position becomes comfortable with a little training. The Operator can keep the weapon on target while giving verbal commands, and repel attackers with devastating pistol-punches, elbow strikes and low kicks. High is easy to maintain for long periods of time. Disarm attempts are defended by simply swiveling the torso, causing the reaction-side elbow to sweep in an arc to knock hands away. The sidearm can be drawn and raised to the correct location with virtually no chance of interference. Keeping the Gun In Hand Weapon retention is imperative. Since pistol-caliber cartridges are ineffective for producing instant stops, multiple, rapid shots on target are essential. Repressing Recoil Muzzle flip recoil is virtually eliminated by the C. With the body bladed, and the head slightly turned, the gun-side eye is taken out of the equation by a natural barrier-the nose-completely eliminating dual sight picture. Under threat, or when severely startled, the brain automatically forces both eyes to open wide. Historically, some instructors have taught their students to eliminate dual sight picture by closing one eye, but this technique cannot be duplicated during a fight. When the sights are placed in this zone, aiming feels more natural, and can be done quickly. It builds isometric tension for weapon control using a triangle made with the arms while placing the sights where they should be-within your focal point.
With traditional stances, the sights are placed much farther out, which makes aiming more difficult, and makes you more susceptible to disarm attempts. Have someone measure the distance from your eyes to the paper. Your sight should be placed where you read. The best way to shoot accurately is to use sights: In a gunfight, the winner is the one who aligns the sights over the target first. With the body bladed away from the threat and the gun cradled close to the body, the bones and tissue of the upper arm provide protective coverage of this vulnerable area. Fluidity and range of motion are also increased. The operator assumes a deep, staggered stance, similar to many martial arts approaches. After monitoring the evolution of the system for several years, I was given the opportunity to train under Jeff Johnsgaard, a Master Instructor with Sabre Tactical Training Center the C. It was designed to meet the needs of LE and military operators. In the above picture you see Keanu tilting his gun to the side like that, its not for Hollywood cool looks, but is actually a real shooting technique created by law enforcement trainer Paul Castle.Ĭenter Axis Relock is more than a grip, stance or range application. With the third final? In other words some of them actually went through similar tactical shooting courses. The credit goes to Taran Butler, the man who trained Keanu Reeves to tactical shoot that looks impressive in the movie. Is it Hollywood or the Real Thing? The action in these movies are very cool to watch, the choreograph is well designed.
