ETA: that's not stupid.  It's faster to deploy a second gun than to attempt to unf*ck your primary while taking rounds.  Deal with the threat, get somebody else to cover you, then get your main gun back in action.

my thoughts exactly.

 



The transitions I was taught generally involved letting the rifle go (because it was on a sling) and doing the draw, clap, push, and shoot move - two hands on the pistol. (unless you are using a barricade, lost the use of a hand, etc.)

One one hand, he's an HK queer with no sling...

On the other hand, he has a Hi Power....


Quite the conundrum.











There is a sling, just hard to spot. Look just to the left of the stock at the receiver, you can see it there.

Look closer guys there is a single point attached.  I would not contiue to hold the VFG of the rifle though.  Drop it clear and use both hands on pistol.

This is a good transition drill.  I teach it to the troops at Ft. Huachuca and I learned it from Ayoob at LFI II.  Putting an IBA on makes it a bit awkward and this fellow is actually doing it quite well.  There are several variations of this drill but the key is getting your secondary weapon into action very quickly.

If it's a single point he's got it attached from the wrong shoulder which is why he's having to hold it.

That's a good answer for typical couch commando.
It's called a "transition," and everyone who knows a little about CQB training etc, knows that a rifle to pistol transition can save your life in the right
scenario.

Knowing how to do a transition to your secondary weapon is pretty basic weapons' handling.

Or if your weapon malfunctions.

+1 on Transition.

I may not be a Level 99 Operator, but it's something I practice when doing HD drills on a routine basis.  You never know when that trusty rifle of yours, or shotgun could malfunction at a key moment.

Does that G36 have a STANAG conversion? Looks like an M16 magazine in the magwell.

He's met the weight requirement to be an airsofter! Plus thats one of the worst transitions that I have ever seen. Drop the stick (thats what the sling is for and get the pistol out and up.

but always fun to have the AR hanging on the single point bounce around and smack me in the nuts.

The book Green Eyes and Black Rifles has a great write up about the proper way to transition.  With a two point sling you just drop the rifle while reaching for your sidearm and it should lay nicely across your chest. You then bring both hands to the pistol and engage the enemy.

I believe the technical nomenclature has been revealed here.

This maneuver is also colloquially referred to as a "New York Reload".
Specifically in reference to pistols.

It wasn't that bad. He looks to note the nature of the failure of his primary, at least. I prefer to toss the gun all the way around and two hand my secondary, though.

During one carbine match one of the other shooters called me a "rotten bastard" during a transition stage because I shoot a rifle "right handed/shoulder" and shoot pistol "left handed" so transitioning to my handgun was much faster for me while retaining the rifle.
