Moving ?
Parked ?
Something to think about because it poses another set of problems.
I prefer to shoot from the .50 caliber turret topside... :lol:

We didn't have those in the Navy, but it sure did look like a good spot to do so from... ;-)

Charles recently showed me a way to move that will help regardless of which stance.

If I were to get technical about it, I would venture a thought out there that a Mod Weaver/Weaver stance affords you the ability to maintain a good balance and a chance to move more effectively from a position where you have discharged your weapon in a stress-fire situation...Without really thinking about it...

Firing "square on" a target or threat in my opinion does not afford you a "good" start to move laterally to a threat or target to present less of a target for them...

I'm of course, strictly speaking from a personal viewpoint...I would prefer not to give a threat any chance to think of getting one-up on me for any reason...I would prefer to make it as unfair a deal for them as possible...

Does this mean I do not subscribe to "Isosceles"??? No...There's balance there if you do not intend to move much (laterally)...

But sure, if you're quick enough anything can be done...

Just my opinion...

When I have time to think about it, and I am practicing...

I do the Weaver, or a "Steve" modification thereof...

My signature says a lot... :lol:
