Post; How to shoot better


if anyone likes to shoot rifles this is the way to shoot straight and accurately.

1. get in a comfortable position
2. slow your breathing to the maximum
3. look through the sites and make sure they line up
4. take the slack out of the trigger and take off safety
5. hold your breath and slowly pull the trigger to the rear

if you are interested in learning how to shooting, go to a school with MCJROTC!!!

BUT first learn about the weapon

Personally, I find that if I hold down the left thumbstick, while tapping the A button before pulling the right trigger (left analog, circle and Right 1 for you PS2 folks) increases my performance on the range and in combat.

But on the new games you have to make sure your prone or it all go's out the window.

slow your breathing to the maximum
When your finger is on trigger
And your fireing elbow hould be sticked to the rifle all the time
it tightens the rifle in your shoulder
And if dealing with carbines i stand in the position like this

Hooah.

What I've always found useful in my combat experience has been getting the biggest freaking gun available and just going nuts with it.

You know, I continue to have problematical arguments with my 3 Y/O concerning the process of proper weapons selection for various missions and applying the appropriate lead on fast moving targets, I’m fairly certain it’s just a rebellious stage in her life and she will soon grow out of the desire to utilize the Barrett .50 cal to engage all her targets of opportunity.

I personally prefer the AT4 and the Javelin for CQB situations.
