VERY Damn Well Presented.
thanks
Hate the squared stance. No one who has ever played cops and robbers would leave their chicken wings exposed. It will be pulled in, no need to adopt that "platform". Note poor Fred's wrist, ouch! He now needs to go out and invest in a new pistol grip for his rifle. Is there anywhere that trains normal people for abnormal occurrences?
Fred is already short he’s making him shorter haha
Very informative, concise video. Really helped me as I "recently woke up one day" and FORGOT how to hold a rifle and/or carbine. I could not sight down the barrel with my red dot or align my eyes when co-witnessing. No talk about keeping both eyes open? Btw, Fred IS the man! Wonder what his workout routine is? In all seriousness, thanks for video.
Love these tips!!! Got my first AR last week! Hats off to Fred for keeping it still! Dang, these rifles kept heavier by the second!
maybe soemone can help me with this….i do all these steps but my reddot is still moving around in circles around my target…i cant seem to keep it steady no matter how hard i try even with holding my breath please help im getting so disapointed 🙁
" i wanna choke up on that tang, or beaver tail" cooooome on that's some funny stuff
I'm a kid and it annoys me SO MUCH when people do the chicken wing crap with their elbow flared out Ive seen experienced shooters doing this and I know that it's wrong and I'm A KID
Awesome vid! I see that there's some type of laser/light on top of the foregrip but i prefer to fully grasp the foregrip with my thumb wrapping around to really pull it in. I'll also stick out my index finger to literally point at targets (since Im not going to be accurate righty anyways) when I'm firing from my off hand (righty … I'm a lefty).
Anyways, awesome vid! Showed this to my gf prior to our range date so shes tracking the basics.
at 1:13 you have a better stance just standing there than he does.
he looks like Rex kwon do from Napoleon Dynamite!
I just made this video 666 likes. Great video! 😈
I gotta ask were you born in New York because I learned a lot of good info from this from a guy in a state that hates people defending themselves. Especially with an ar15 mind you. lol. All joking aside I learned a lot thanks for the tips!!
Must have been hella heavy rofl!!
Nice video. I can vouch from personal experience that Chris Fry is an excellent instructor. We are lucky to have him here in New York.
If u watched this video, u may try out for the HEAT sequel.
If I held my AR for as long as Fred does would that be a good workout?
Gonna get Fred killed with that shit, that might work on a range but not in combat, Fred forget this shit and learn how to shoot, I hope this guy doesn't get paid for teaching people how to get killed
but no demo on how to move
Im telling you fred was under pressure the whole time standing like taht is arm and back was probably killing him
thanks sir this was very helpful
Well said, very good video!
Great info thanks
Grunt humor: Is it just me, or is Fred the shooter equivalent of Blue from the movie Old School? You're my boy Fred! jk
Great block of instruction!
