tactical crouch

who else runs around in a tactical crouch. i think it is a very great thing for not getting hit. also its possible to run fairly fast gears of war style in this crouch. although it is a bit hard on the back.
who else does this?

I tried it once, and broke my first springer (a WELL M16A2) in half. Then I used it as a pistol.

So no, I don't use it. I'll walk in a crouch, but run? Nah.

I normally try, but it is difficult for me to run fast in it. So I normally just run up right...

The ROADIE RUN!! I personally hate GOW as a game but the Roadie Run as its called is a really effective way to stay low and move fast, but it is hard on my knees.....its really cool to see people dash around like this in games..

In areas like where I play there are too many things I could trip, then die from to attempt this.

I use a version called the groucho walk that SWAT tuses to move fast, but keep accuracy high. You can cover a lot of ground, that's for sure

If I'm changing cover I'll just sprint and keep my guard up, and slow down if I need to shoot. If I'm making an assault or something I'll quickly move between cover shooting in between.

Crouch-run doesn't really work out for me

In airsoft...no thank you plz.
I have yet to impale anything with my crotch running around in the woods...but I guess I'll say im stupid for that later XD.

groucho walk jarhead? it sounds familiar. could you show a pic?

I used to do the tactical crouch run. Then I tripped, broke my gun, and got some spring stuck a little bit under my skin. Was a bit painful, but I loved my $50 gun :'( I no longer do that, but I haul ass like a motherf***er when im getting shot at.

I try to stand, walk, and run with the combat stance I saw in a Magpul training vid "The Art of the Tactical Carbine". Makes it easy to transition between looking and shooting, and it's easier on the back.

It really doesn't look all that different than regular walking. This is what you do. You bend your knees like in the picture and walk almost heel-to-toe. Pretend you want to put your knee in back of the knee in front of it, just don't actually do that, haha.

edit: sorry for the size, if anybody knows how to make it smaller, please share the secret

ah i do that a lot. its really helpful for keeping aim

Which is exactly why I use it!
