regarding weapon handling..... we can see a lot of difference from western armies and that of some Asian countries [including IA]...

especially in the weapon holding position in battle situations , here people preferred to hold below chest but US/european armies preferred to keep in line with their eye....

am not sure which is best , obviously second one looks cool....

is it because of the rifles that we are having , we are following these holding position..? i meant traditionally we are having heavy and no scope rifles, so our army used with these holding position....

@COLDHEARTED AVIATOR

If you ask me then this is the correct stance when in hunting mode.Notice the position of the shoulders and his face plus his grip of the weapon.This stance provides the best accuracy in my opinion.

Keeping the gun on the shoulders in not a good way as it reduces the reaction time.Your barrel should point at the direction your eyes are pointing this is what i was told.

thanks for the reply............... But these positions will be helpful for the weapon with smaller length , doing the same with our INSAS will be difficult ...... that may be the reason we were not following this position
what u think...

No holding the longer weapon wont be too different I guess...There is a Rocky and Mayur show on CIJWS...in which there is a small part showing room intervention procedure by Infantrymen using INSAS where you can see them holding the gun in the same way...sorry I can't post the video as I am on mobile.

@COLDHEARTED AVIATOR ^^AK and clones have no cheek weld to begin with... the reason was due to philosphy of use... Western rifles and older generation of russian rifles were built with good combs for effective sight picture and good grouping. AK users strayed away from shot placement into suppressing fire modes of ensuring putting maximum lead down range while leaving shot placement to DM's. Western forces on the other hand continued their tradition of effective shot placement leaving the suppressing modes to specialist carrying LMG's. Hence due to their phil of use, there is no shooting from the hip or half a$$ing the shouldered rifle.

Good cheek weld

Incorrect cheek weld

Ak buttstock upgrade with adjustable comb:

Thanks for the info...but I was talking about the shoulders and the positioning of the barrel but you pointed out something which I had little clue about ie the position of the face.

If you are shooting a rifle, you would need to shoulder it... I have a hard time understanding what exactly you are trying to say.

If you are referring not to shoulder the rifle before shooting for response time? because that in my opinion would not make any sense

My point was the way u shoulder a rifle.I am finding it hard to explain too but I have seen Police units and para military units not shouldering it properly...I wasn't talking about Rambo type firing. Lol

I was told by my instructor that you need to shoulder the gun properly for accuracy and to reduce the effects of recoil.
