its really used for team tacticsSkiprr wrote:Suarez is probably the biggest proponent of the position among the nationally-known instructors. And you'll get mixed advice about it.
It's best use is not in extreme close quarters combat, though, but in navigating areas where there are non-combatants scattered around, and possibly in tight building-clearing situations. If you're on the ground (or ground floor), IMHO it makes for a quickly-employed and versatile way to get your muzzle in a (realtively) safe position. The two downsides are: 1. If you're on the move, which you probably will be, you'll almost inevitably be covering your feet/legs at some point. 2. If you do get caught at bad-breath distance while you're in Sul, you'll need to have had some specific training to keep the position from becomming a liability; it's far easier for a bad guy to control your hands from that position than, say, if you were in Close Contact Ready.
YMMV.

Re: Sul Position
You will also find Yeager at Tactical Response and Hoffner use this as well. Along with Gabe they have all been my instructors, it is pretty ingrained in my skill set by now, and think its a great position for the pistol while scanning to the rear and moving without going into a ready position or holster
