@mgibbs88 According to statistics, I would have to say Vietnam where the troops were taught to lay down a blanket of fire (which would make sense in a jungle environment, but doesn't work so well in large open areas like Afganistan or Iraq). I'd have to say that using a 3-round burst instead of full automatic helped alot.
@RELeeOnTraveller it is genetic, but it has nothing to do with firearms and a lot to do with evolution. In order to protect you eyes, your body automaticly closes you eyes when a loud and quick motion is made near you eyes, it was great for protecting them, but lousy when we created firearms that could be accurately fired, hence why you learn to squeeze the trigger, that way your eyes get tricked to blinking after you shoot (which they will always do) and not before or during
@wikieditspam thank you for your comment, and your point is? Just watch the movie (which is old yeah so?) or stfu and go comment something else. Thank you!
A squeezed trigger is correct. However, firearms have been around for quite a few centuries. Early firearms had an external primary ignition device. If you did not close your eyes you were royally f'ed. Perhaps this eye closing has become almost genetic. Does anybody close their eyes when releasing a bow?
lmao plz do time travel before hearing my approval.
22:37 is not the way you shoot on a competition range, there is absolutely no bone support. If someone said that was a combat stance and if he bent forward a little, Id agree, but I can already imagine the sway he'd be getting from using that many muscles

@LearnToTurn7 since when did the army start teaching spray and pray?

I wish the army would still hold this idea of rapid fire, instead of spray-and-pray.

@RELeeOnTraveller I shoot flintlocks. You are not "royally f'ed" if you do not close your eyes.
