The over the shoulder compression technique actually predates vehicle CQB as mentioned in the video. It was used in the late 80’s when using the M-16A2’s with a 20 inch barrel and a fixed stock to perform building clearing before CQB was a term. Without the over the shoulder technique you were significantly slower getting muzzle on target entering a door/rounding a corner, etc. The technique also preloads the rifle for a barrel strike in the event you encounter a person at close distance.
The technique is extreamly useful for multiple reasons. Not only for the proloaded muzzle strike like a spear coming through the door way, but also as a technique to limit barrel exposure as you enter the room. Honestly it just sounds like this guy doesent know what hes talking about when it comes to the technique, and or he was too lazy to put in the work to make it a functional part of his tool set. As JTF2 is supose to be the best canada has to offer in cqb skills, this is a complete embarrassment.
Yes, the preload is also going to allow me to point me weapon AT the target and push the weapon AT the target, rather than trying to swing the weapon AROUND into place from the shoulder.. It's not "from" vehicular combat lol, idk what he was on about. I under shoulder a weapon through a doorway unless I am already panning the doorway for a target in a known position. It just works for some of us, maybe it doesn't seem to work for someone who is less coordinated?
@@notsure9301You'd be surprised how dogmatic mindsets regarding CQB can permeate even the best units. But it's typically not indicative of the entire unit's quality. For example, this mentality he's touting is also commonly espoused by a specific group of former CAG guys, namely dudes who come from A Squadron. They're always going on about how one shouldn't ever break the rifle down, how dynamic clearance is the only valid form of clearance, etc. Basically ignoring all the lessons learned from the GWOT. Meanwhile guys who have retired from the other assault squadrons preach much more current ideas and tactics. Tellingly, A Squadron took heavy casualties well into the later GWOT compared to the other squadrons. So even though this guy might be saying one thing, other JTF2 squadrons might think different.
@@themeanestturtle jtf2 does kind of have to do cqb this way by default as they do have hostage rescue mandates so they have to be hostage rescue ready at any time... im just super suprized this guy buys into it to the point that he thinks its the best thing to do. Some people never learn xD
I love this!!!! Like in the middle of the night, in my house. I hear something. I pick up my phone and call my CQC/CQB buddies. They come over and we clear my house.
@@NolzySZN JTF2 or not I'm definitely not following any advice from this guy that's for sure, that bs he did inside the room is a death sentence, but continue.
@keystrokesproductions personally I'm not 100% on board with this guy either but what's your alternative method? You don't really point out what exactly is wrong nor do you give any counterpoint. What should one do when alone in a scenario where someone might be in your house? Do I just go back to sleep and let the wife deal with it? Ya, sometimes the situation is shit and you have to do SOMETHING.
Alternative method is.... Do not try to clear the home alone. Stay in one room,back towards the wall. Behind some cover.(Bed?)Near an escape option like a window. Wait for the intruder to come to you. Be armed and ready.
So why did you go right and basically flow in when you seen that was pretty much clear instead of button hooking into the area that was mostly unclear? You pretty much gave your back to the target you engaged!
I was thinking the same thing. Also I think the only time collapsing is acceptable is when you are button hooking. I mean you don’t have to collapse when doing a bottom hook but 🤷♂️ it all just depends on the person.
Because they don’t teach the button hook anymore like we did in the old days,,,,and why wouldn’t you take a quick peek to your left as your breaching the doorway to the right. Too much lag time going into the right then turning behind you to clear the left. And what about slicing the pie? Right to left to clear that corner? Unless it’s a dynamic entry then just look left fast as you go right.
@@buckgs1465 pretty sure they’re still teaching buttonhooks. I also prefer pieing off the entire room before entry if time permits, sometimes the situation warrants more dynamic entry, but that always increases the pucker factor. The reasoning behind not doing a “quick peek” to the opposite direction, is because it is generally considered a no-no to take your eyes away from the direction of your weapon for safety reasons, also if you look left and see a bad guy now you have to swing your weapon around to match your field of view which let’s face it, if that happened you’d probably eat a bullet. But it could depends on what the walls are made out of. If they offer ballistic cover, you could certainly tuck back in the strong side and quickly reevaluate, maybe frag that turd if you have grenades. Either way, one-man is risky business.
That's exactly what I was thinking. If your right has a threat or not you would be able to see it with an open door. No threat check left. I learned how to pie helps with entry or windows
First, awesome video and thank you for posting it. I just have a few thoughts. Because solo CQB is a last resort type of situation and not optimal, going slow and methodical is sometimes your best friend. On his POV cam/ when he approached the fatal funnel, he saw that the right side was near clear. He could have also walked around the open door on the right side and peeked through the crack to partially clear the left side of the room. He could have even taken shots through the crack if needed to end a threat. When solo clearing most of the time patience is your best friend. Violence of action works best in a stack at war time but when solo, surprise and silence work wonders. I'm not a tier 1 operator like this gentleman, just a retired Law Enforcement officer from the states. I’m sure this comment will get flamed and that’s okay. I’m definitely Monday morning quarterbacking, but I just wanted to leave some thoughts because most folks going to YT for solo clearing advice are not well trained and they shouldn’t feel like they need to rush into a center fed room. Again, I know this class was likely training SWAT or military folks who will usually have a plus 1, just posting this for all the civilians watching.
No you’re right but as he said this is a last resort type situation. He’s said before that clearing sectors is far better than taking the room by yourself.
@Make_Canada_Trudeau-Less-Again I get it and we know.. but you gotta admit this leaving like half the commenters thinking about this should tell you something. I get the step but he also says “if I was in a 1-man situation, this is what I’d do” kinda thing
@@thamomentum you always have the time, thats a dumb response. always ask yourself why... why are u running into the meat grinder? like if your willing to die for no reason, in order to secure one room everyone's going to leave right after anyways, do you my guy.
THANK YOU for FINALLY dispelling that ridiculous over the shoulder 'Snap the gun out' move! Every time I see a young guy do that in training I just shake my head and I know who they've been watching on TH-cam. Want to know when they stop that silly 'look at me move' ? When they get greased by a bad guy in the corner ten times in a row because they took an extra 2 seconds to snap the gun and then try to aquire the target on the move under stress. Get the Gun in the Gunfight as soon as you can. Milliseconds count - especially at that range! Thank you again.
wait a second... are you trying to say that just because the most optimal way is hard that you should forget about it? instead of training it until its a repeatable action? it sounds like your too stuck in dogma that got alot of people killed. have fun with that 👍
Im not disagreeing with you he is running a short barrel without a suppressor. Imaging running a 16 inch barrel suppressed to get through the threshold there may be a time and place to bring that over your shoulder to get through the door.
@@MTG9878 the problem arises in short barrel and long barrel that as you enter, you have this big stick coming through the doorway before you have eyes into the corner. giving the enemy more time to react as you now still have to train the gun left or right into the corner where the bad guy is. not doing it is just objectively wrong, from the objective of limiting your barrel signature pre entry. and if barrel signature into the room doesent matter, then why not just stick your barrel into the threshold when u first stack on it... its all an absurd argument, made to keep old dogs feeling like they are high speed with their outdated tactics.
@@notsure9301 I think youre putting a bit too much emphasis on barrel signature. Sure, you dont want to blatantly have your barrel/rifle sticking deep into the room/past the threshold before you make entry, but ultimately if there is someone in a room like that, they already KNOW youre there as theyre going to hear you progressing towards the threshold at some point of the progression through the house/building/room(basically no matter how surreptitiously you move, you will make enough noise to tip off a bad guy that youre somewhere looking for them). Thats why the priority is to be able to have the rifle in the strongest position possible for you to deal with a threat as fast, and accurate as possible. Therefore pulling the butt over your shoulder and then driving it forward is just a waste of precious time where youre NOT in a favorable firing position ready to fight, all so that you can do what...have your barrel a handful of inches further back so they dont see your barrel as long as possible...? Which like I said, likely is irrelevant as they will still HEAR you regardless of if your barrel is a handful of inches further back. 1 man CQB is very much not ideal, you only win through speed, efficiency, violence of action...and a little bit of luck, but speed is primarily the important factor there(how quickly you can effectively make entry, then process whats in front of your rifle, identify a threat, and deal with the threat is what decides the winner and loser, milliseconds count). Managing your barrel going through a threshold is primarily more to mitigate against it being potentially pushed/taken control of by someone youre not expecting to be so close(which wouldnt happen with the strong position the JTF2 guys rifle is in, tight to his body and ready to fire). But obviously not every situation is the same, I think at times both strategies have their uses, although more often than not what the JTF2 guy is preaching is favorable.
@@Handcannon77 im sorry but your simply downplaying how important the barrel signature is, theres a difference between "they are in the building moving around" and "they are entering the room right this second". and the longer you can delay their thought of "they are entering right this second" while actively entering the room, is seconds that you are winning in order to put the fight into your favor, as you decrease the window in time they have to react and react correctly. further more you talk about how its a stronger position to fight from if someone gets hands on... complete and utter bull. if you short stock or high port before entering you are preloading a spear thrust prior to your entry... if theres a guy there then 1. you remove their ability to grab your gun as it wont be sticking into the room before you enter into the room. and 2. if theres a guy standing there and you extend out your rifle your busting some ones head open and either killing or atleast knocking out the guy standing there theres literally no reason not to do it besides "i dont want to train more" it is the most optimal way to enter a room, its just a question if you've trained it enough that its functional. coming from a community where millions of rounds go through Glocks and rifles to make every bullet accountable, i find it dumbfounding that repetition to achieve optimal performance is now the devil :/
I think he’s demonstrating a scenario where getting in the room is pretty important, I guess. Wish he would’ve said. But if you’re alone, a dynamic entry is on the last of your to list. Clear as much of the room as you can from the outside, slowly and quietly.
This would make far more sense if he said this is a scenario where you are alone and cornered and need to bust out. Then that would make sense that you are basically making a 50-50 chance of (hopefully) only running into one threat against you with the split-second advantage. Otherwise, you're better off just turning around and leaving, especially if you're just some regular guy. Training and drilling the procedure is obviously important but it doesn't make you invincible.
Not criticing more like asking, but I could see in your personal point of view camera shot.As you're coming up to the threshold, you can clearly see that right corner is open.Why are you still putting your gunned down that corner instead of to that unknown corner behind u... Would you not prefer after knowing That corner is clear as you can see in the camera angle, Entering with your rifle down to the unknown corner.Either driving down to that corner or quickly moving across the room to make the bad guy track you as you enter. ? Curious your thoughts
You are EXACTLY CORRECT. When he hits the doorway and observes the right corner, he can see the nearly the whole wall so he would know that no threat can be there. In that situation he 100% SHOULD HAVE BUTTONHOOKED to the left corner as it was the only unknown. The only thing I can chalk it up to is that he was using that entry example generically-assuming that each side of the room was equally "unknown". But the devil's always in the details and in CQB every scenario is different. You always need to take into account those things. But even so if you approach an open door from the left, unless the room is extremely long, you can usually see all but the deep corner on the right side. But the Left side you can't see anything. Even after you center-step you still have much more of the left side that's unknown. In that scenario you really should always buttonhook left UNLESS you have seen/heard something that suggests there's a badguy in the the right corner closely hugging the wall. Short answer is that your instincts were good.
Active duty Ranger, Space Marine, Navy Seal, Devgru, CAG, ODA, SAS, Marine Raider here. There is a lot of steps that can fail here. Always throw in a quick C4 or slide in the room and neutralize the bad guys with controlled automatic hip fire 😎😎😎
need to gain situational awareness obviously here he is moving at an instructional pace... Kyle Morgan teaches the same thing about working a threshold, these guys have done it at the highest level which is why they are qualified to teach it. no more no less
Few thoughts. after your power step in to the right you were shot in the back. To mitigate this I would have "sliced the pie"to the left without breaking the plain into the room, then I would've power stepped into the room to the right, the next guy goes to the left. I heard him say it's not realistic to do this with one guy and I'm assuming this is why(because you leave your back open having not checked the left first). Great video
How do you do if you're the first in an assault column? The one behind you enter and point left in the same moment that you do your power step? Btw in the vehicle, I do preferd to have my rifle on my weak hand side, grip upside. But then same as you putting the rifle butt upon my shoulder and then pointing.
makes no sense to go the direction that you have cleared the most and expose your back to the "unknown". if that paper target was an live target he will hit you 9 times out of 10. pie the door, and enter, or go to the danger area or path of "least resistens" ? or am i missing something here ?
We got taught the over the shoulder stuff in building clearing because we all had full length ar’s as our department didnt start upgrading until much later on
over the shoulder and under the shoulder stuff is legit AF. its to reduce signature as you check the corner, this guy is simply a joke. if you got taught the over the shoulder stuff, you got taught better then this clown.
Fairly new to this stuff. But given the shape of the room, and how easily the right side of the room was seen before entering the room, im suprised that he was instructing to entee the room and take actual steps before checking behind himself in the one corner he wasnt able to check. Would it have been better to take a breath of confidence, and take a step across the door to check the other corner before entering the room?
Excellent! A video with footwork. Thank you. Question. Do you specifically pivit around with your wall side foot forward? Always? I have been, well used to, practicing the pivot foot. But not the lunge. Also, when you see someone and you finally register, they're a friendly. What way are we to slide the muzzle? I'm in. Liking and subscribing.
Aren’t you going to be shot in the back when you step into the room? It seems like you can see there’s nothing in the direction you started before you entered the room. Why not start aimed where you can’t see? Just trying to make sure I’m understanding this properly. Thanks in advance for clarifying.
Can Canadians own or use any of this equipment? What would happen to the average Canadian who used these tactics during a self-defense situation like a home invasion?
Why not go left in that situation? When you set up you are only missing that tiny 3 feet of the riggt side corner. Ide rather turn my back to that 3 feet that my hard corner behind where your target was. That target shot you. There wasnt enough room to hide that target to the right side and you see Most of it from outside already.
This is awesome. Why not go left because you've already cleared much of the right? Or I guess you're just speaking in general terms in choosing one of two corners to drive to?
Good grief…🤦🏻♂️ Ooorrr position back from the threshold as you sweep left to right looking into the room to view as much of the backside as you can with ya muzzle up…approach the threshold from the opposite side muzzle up but not breaching the threshold and take a peep to secure the backside…cycle back to original side muzzle up scanning and theeen punch through the threshold. With this guy’s method in this scenario if there is a backside treat the minute that threshold is breeched ya dead homie. Two man assault…first guy in goes left AFTER a 180 degree step back and scan to evaluate the room’s backside BEFORE punching through. I have never bet my life during a breech on me being 1/4 second faster than the other guy. Eliminate variables beforehand…end of story
Video is labeled for single man cqb... Then proceeds to not pie the threshold and makes entry to get his back blown put without a 2 man.... I can understand breaking the shoulder to not ALWAYS be the best course of action but it has its place and wasnt gone into in any depth he wants to get gun in the corner asap sacrificing the shoulder break but exposes himself early negating any benefit to being on the gun also acting like we wouldn't be able to point shoot with rifle over the shoulder
No amount of choreography will make up for the guy on tour weak side waiting for you to ignore him, as you enter, lookin around the big side of the room.
He had already pie the right corner before entering the room. He should check his left, but no, he decided to turn his back to the part that he never checked. This video is stupid.
And with the bad guy where he was, you'd be shot so many times... seems like you could have easily looked into the other side of the room where the bad guy was by simply opening the door or looking from the other side of the door?
as a old Ranger ! From the 80’s get ready to move from there to back to jungle ! All this training is about to go back out the window well maybe not all but Cartel hunting is going to be a lot different
Fantastic work, best lesson I've ever seen in how to get shot in the back, try this in real life and you'll end up dead, im not standing in front of no closed door if i have space, the same way limited entry was used to clear the right angle, I'm also using limited entry to clear the left, before I commit to entry, and that ballet dance at the end to try and turn around once I'm inside and realize the threat is left, is NOT going to save me. This is top level garbage.
Single man structure clearing is literally the most dangerous thing someone could attempt. Eventually in most structures you will have to make a decision along the 180 degree line for which direction to commit to (for the purpose of going deeper inside the structure). I get your point about using limited entry to try to gain as much info as possible, but in some situations that will only help so much and you'll still have to pick a direction to commit. Add in additional stressors like active threat situations, and yeah you can see why single man structure clearing is asking for death.
Luckily only around 1% (probably less) of viewers will ever have to clear a room like this. These types of videos are cool and all, but it's cute how anyone actually thinks that they're going to put these ideas into practice as a civilian.
IDK why comments are talking about why not do a full deliberate clear from the threshold. This man is clearly not demonstrating that option, he's showing step centre.
the onlt reason hes showing this dog water is because it looks like what they show in hollywood and it looks good in the videos. this approach is terrible and further more wtf is up with his aversion to collapsing the gun?! this whole demonstration is a complete joke.
@@notsure9301 The question of when to approach as combat clearance or direct entry is far more nuanced and contextual than you believe. The two are very different and are applied to different scenarios, and people shift between them as needed. Even in the same mission profile.
@@parappasan are you telling me that going dynamic when your 1 man is ever a good idea? Especially when you have nothing stopping you from going deliberate? We are not talking about a mission set with a full clearance team.
@Make_Canada_Trudeau-Less-Again the stuff i know comes from basic 10, barricaded flow and other room clearance methods. Its safe to say that i have forgoten more then you know, if you think what i have to say on the topic is wrong.
Everyone complaining about why he did not go left. THAT was the whole point! Hence the "not optimal". It not COD people. Real world entry, point man is ALWAYS right. Always. That's why you need a minimum 2 stack. You could make all the perfect entry as per TTP and STILL get domed by a threat in a corner under some desk or concealed behind trash.
He pretty much cleared the right which you can see at 4:03 in the video. The dead space was to the right which you could see when he had to do basically a 180 to engage a target which would have shot him in the back! Definitely should have button hooked in my opinion! You are right when more than 1 is better! Also just because the point man leads the way doesn’t mean he is actually right all the time!
point man cant be wrong... but he can be dumb. and that's what everyone is getting at, he made a very dumb call. and if you arent trying to find the most optimal way to clear a building, what are we doing here? honestly ask yourself that. are we just running into buildings in order to look tough and die like morons? or would we rather dominate all the angles and not allow the enemy a chance to hurt us? your mind state over this is all jacked up on outdated CQB dogma and Hollywood propaganda of what a "good soldier" is...
@@LRowe-ld1og point man is never wrong... but he can be Re***ded. and this is a blatant example of that saying. simply saying "this is not cod" does not mean it gives you free reign to enter into the meat grinder of cqb and do this outdated BS...
So why don't you clear the blind first so to speak? You an see the majority of the room, and it's empty, why not move to clear the small of the room to avoid being shot in the back? I should have probably added that I really want to know, and not that I'm being a wise guy
Its really a center fed room so there are actually two deep corners. In a corner fed room there is only one deep corner. If you are doing 2 man entry the number one man chooses and is always right whichever way he chooses to go. If that makes sense. Im not questioning his tactics that is not an optimal room to show which corner is deeper as it is a center fed room. Hope that helps. You are right you should always drive the deep corner or the unknown first unless the threshold assessment gives you stimulus to go the opposite way.
Why go right when you cleared the right off the bat ? Wouldn't you Wang to go the Last place you haven't cleared * actually curious from a learning perspective *
I am sure this is a dumb question but does it matter which direction you go based on what side of the body the rifle is on? Also will I be able to shoot left handed in the CAF? (assuming they stop making signing up an absolute chore)
Yes, you will be able to shoot and operate the rifle left handed in the CAF and no, you don't choose a side based on the side of the body you operate the rifle from.
Wanna Trust this guy given his resume but that right forearm tattoo is messing it up ! Why does retired JTF2 aka Canadian Tier 1 have American Flag Tattoo ??
Why not throw in a FB - check left - since you can't see LEFT -- and then go right. Not dogging the cqb technique in the video -- it just seems you left yourself open to get shot right out the gate since you couldn't see LEFT -- and you went right...
You stepped right into the middle of the doorway. Had a bad guy been to your left or even directly in front of you or hiding around the corner on the right side of the room you most likely would have been toast or hamburger. Just my observation. I'm no pro.
Making the best of a shitty situation. Circumstances will dictate, as for myself I want to get as much visual into the room as I possibly can before pushing off. I'm also going to deploy a banger, and yes they can be obtained by citizens [ this has been impeded by current White House policy ]. I hope I never need to go this route.
@@direct_action_combat thanks. I didn’t see the Patricia badge in the first video. I figured it was something along those lines but I’m sure you know as well as I do, that American flags aren’t too common in the CF. Chimo.
Dude just fuckin lives in that threshold. That "snapshot" at the cut will get you shot in the face. If that's the best that Canada can do, y'all need to send some more dudes to train with the US Army. I kicked in doors for a little over 3 years in Iraq, and I say with full confidence this guy's teaching will get people killed. If you're trying to get eyes into a room to develop the situation, you don't do it from the threshold, you do it from as far back in the room you're in as you can, as that presents a minimal target for anyone in the other room vs just stepping out in full view of the cut. Which gives you better options for moving off the X and into cover/concealment, being a foot away from the door which is just concealment, or being 10 feet back into a room where you can action to one side quickly and be completely concealed by the walls separating the room? And he's wrong as hell about driving the stock past the shoulder. Homeboy has obviously never muzzle thumped someone, or he would know that extra movement to drive the rifle forward in a hands on situation generates way more power. To be fair, Canada hasn't conducted near as many real world CQB operations in the modern age, so it makes sense that they're stuck in early 2000's style tactics like this.
Y'all???? 😂 You have not won a single conflict in 80 years.....I think the only thing you have ever done is played call of duty......Why don't you go to Ukraine and prove yourself in a real war....
@jonnywishbone1342 so, instead of arguing the content of my statement, you resort to an ad hominem attack. Quality keyboard commando behavior. How long have you been fighting in Ukraine? I only ask because you telling me to prove myself is fucking hilarious if you haven't. If I gave half a shit about Ukraine or their war, I'd have already joined their International Legion. I'd also love for you to go up to someone from your country who served in Iraq and tell them it wasn't a real war, see how they respond.
Yet, JTF2 was selected to do a capture mission early in Gulf2 by US command (there's a picture of them disembarking from a USAF CH-53 with pajama boys in tow) and JTF2 don't even really train for capture, only kill, yet they were chosen. Not Delta, not SEALS, not SAS etc, JTF2. Pretty sure they had to kick some doors with real bad guys behind them, and not the women, children, bakers and cab drivers you mashed 😉 The Canucks might be grossly underfunded and screwed by their Chyna loving PM to no end but just using Wainwright as an e.g., they consistently smoke the US in war games.
@swh0rd682 that raid was in southern Iraq, and that battlespace was British and Canadian to deal with. Ever notice how when you'd watch the news you'd never hear stories of US anyone doing anything at all in cities like Basra? Because there weren't US troops operating in a place that was an allied nation's AOR. Gee, I wonder why the Canadians did a unilateral raid in their AOR....... I love it when the keyboard commandoes start their shit when they have absolutely zero frame of reference for the topic they're talking about so confidently. Also, in Sadr City, both deployments I ended up there, it was mostly members of JAM we were raiding, and those dudes even had foreign mercenaries fighting with them like Chechens and shit. Lots of speculation from people who've never done shit with their lives, but that's why YT entertains me.
@swh0rd682 oh, also, literally every combat arms soldier trains on EPW drills. That means capturing people alive. You just implied that they don't train in a skill set that even the basic Canadian infantry trains.
One man CQB is not ideal but who do you think you are teaching on TH-cam? certainly not operators or even PD, its regular 2A community people so one man CQB IS the norm, unless you and the wife are squared away like that. How do you account for the guy to the left side of the room? cant you pie [more of] the room off even before entering? the "bad guy" target you have behind the door on the left side tells me that i'd have to be dealing with a complete idiot of a bad guy to not catch some metal in the back. heaven forbid he is already aiming at the door....you'd be toast as soon as you walked in.
The over the shoulder compression technique actually predates vehicle CQB as mentioned in the video. It was used in the late 80’s when using the M-16A2’s with a 20 inch barrel and a fixed stock to perform building clearing before CQB was a term.

Honestly it just sounds like this guy doesent know what hes talking about when it comes to the technique, and or he was too lazy to put in the work to make it a functional part of his tool set.
As JTF2 is supose to be the best canada has to offer in cqb skills, this is a complete embarrassment.
Yes, the preload is also going to allow me to point me weapon AT the target and push the weapon AT the target, rather than trying to swing the weapon AROUND into place from the shoulder.. It's not "from" vehicular combat lol, idk what he was on about. I under shoulder a weapon through a doorway unless I am already panning the doorway for a target in a known position. It just works for some of us, maybe it doesn't seem to work for someone who is less coordinated?

Imagine the kinda confedence you most have , having this man as a pointman in your stack... Class work
So why did you go right and basically flow in when you seen that was pretty much clear instead of button hooking into the area that was mostly unclear? You pretty much gave your back to the target you engaged!
I was thinking the same thing. Also I think the only time collapsing is acceptable is when you are button hooking. I mean you don’t have to collapse when doing a bottom hook but 🤷♂️ it all just depends on the person.
@@Not_very_grey Yep. He 100% should've buttonhooked.
Because they don’t teach the button hook anymore like we did in the old days,,,,and why wouldn’t you take a quick peek to your left as your breaching the doorway to the right. Too much lag time going into the right then turning behind you to clear the left. And what about slicing the pie? Right to left to clear that corner? Unless it’s a dynamic entry then just look left fast as you go right.
@@buckgs1465 pretty sure they’re still teaching buttonhooks. I also prefer pieing off the entire room before entry if time permits, sometimes the situation warrants more dynamic entry, but that always increases the pucker factor. The reasoning behind not doing a “quick peek” to the opposite direction, is because it is generally considered a no-no to take your eyes away from the direction of your weapon for safety reasons, also if you look left and see a bad guy now you have to swing your weapon around to match your field of view which let’s face it, if that happened you’d probably eat a bullet. But it could depends on what the walls are made out of. If they offer ballistic cover, you could certainly tuck back in the strong side and quickly reevaluate, maybe frag that turd if you have grenades. Either way, one-man is risky business.
That's exactly what I was thinking. If your right has a threat or not you would be able to see it with an open door. No threat check left. I learned how to pie helps with entry or windows
First, awesome video and thank you for posting it. I just have a few thoughts. Because solo CQB is a last resort type of situation and not optimal, going slow and methodical is sometimes your best friend. On his POV cam/ when he approached the fatal funnel, he saw that the right side was near clear. He could have also walked around the open door on the right side and peeked through the crack to partially clear the left side of the room. He could have even taken shots through the crack if needed to end a threat. When solo clearing most of the time patience is your best friend. Violence of action works best in a stack at war time but when solo, surprise and silence work wonders. I'm not a tier 1 operator like this gentleman, just a retired Law Enforcement officer from the states. I’m sure this comment will get flamed and that’s okay. I’m definitely Monday morning quarterbacking, but I just wanted to leave some thoughts because most folks going to YT for solo clearing advice are not well trained and they shouldn’t feel like they need to rush into a center fed room. Again, I know this class was likely training SWAT or military folks who will usually have a plus 1, just posting this for all the civilians watching.
I play fps video games but even I know that some retired cop from the us is gonna b giving dumb advice. Get out of here.
You have very valid points.
No you’re right but as he said this is a last resort type situation. He’s said before that clearing sectors is far better than taking the room by yourself.
@@oshadan2444if you watch the video he ends up back exposed to the bad guy… cop is right
@Make_Canada_Trudeau-Less-Again I get it and we know.. but you gotta admit this leaving like half the commenters thinking about this should tell you something.
I get the step but he also says “if I was in a 1-man situation, this is what I’d do” kinda thing
Why not continue the pie outside of the threshold to see as much into the left side of the room as possible?
was thinking the same thing. plus you can pretty much see the entire right side already.
@@dereksanchez6751 That's another question. Why dig right when you've seen 90% of that side of the room?
@@iamjocanadianBecause number 1 man is always right. ;)
Sometimes you don't have the time. You just threw in a flash or cs
@@thamomentum you always have the time, thats a dumb response. always ask yourself why... why are u running into the meat grinder? like if your willing to die for no reason, in order to secure one room everyone's going to leave right after anyways, do you my guy.
Correctly best vid that I see for start to CQB❤
THANK YOU for FINALLY dispelling that ridiculous over the shoulder 'Snap the gun out' move! Every time I see a young guy do that in training I just shake my head and I know who they've been watching on TH-cam. Want to know when they stop that silly 'look at me move' ? When they get greased by a bad guy in the corner ten times in a row because they took an extra 2 seconds to snap the gun and then try to aquire the target on the move under stress. Get the Gun in the Gunfight as soon as you can. Milliseconds count - especially at that range! Thank you again.
wait a second... are you trying to say that just because the most optimal way is hard that you should forget about it? instead of training it until its a repeatable action?
it sounds like your too stuck in dogma that got alot of people killed. have fun with that 👍
Im not disagreeing with you he is running a short barrel without a suppressor. Imaging running a 16 inch barrel suppressed to get through the threshold there may be a time and place to bring that over your shoulder to get through the door.
@@MTG9878 the problem arises in short barrel and long barrel that as you enter, you have this big stick coming through the doorway before you have eyes into the corner. giving the enemy more time to react as you now still have to train the gun left or right into the corner where the bad guy is. not doing it is just objectively wrong, from the objective of limiting your barrel signature pre entry. and if barrel signature into the room doesent matter, then why not just stick your barrel into the threshold when u first stack on it... its all an absurd argument, made to keep old dogs feeling like they are high speed with their outdated tactics.
@@notsure9301 I think youre putting a bit too much emphasis on barrel signature. Sure, you dont want to blatantly have your barrel/rifle sticking deep into the room/past the threshold before you make entry, but ultimately if there is someone in a room like that, they already KNOW youre there as theyre going to hear you progressing towards the threshold at some point of the progression through the house/building/room(basically no matter how surreptitiously you move, you will make enough noise to tip off a bad guy that youre somewhere looking for them). Thats why the priority is to be able to have the rifle in the strongest position possible for you to deal with a threat as fast, and accurate as possible. Therefore pulling the butt over your shoulder and then driving it forward is just a waste of precious time where youre NOT in a favorable firing position ready to fight, all so that you can do what...have your barrel a handful of inches further back so they dont see your barrel as long as possible...? Which like I said, likely is irrelevant as they will still HEAR you regardless of if your barrel is a handful of inches further back.
1 man CQB is very much not ideal, you only win through speed, efficiency, violence of action...and a little bit of luck, but speed is primarily the important factor there(how quickly you can effectively make entry, then process whats in front of your rifle, identify a threat, and deal with the threat is what decides the winner and loser, milliseconds count).
Managing your barrel going through a threshold is primarily more to mitigate against it being potentially pushed/taken control of by someone youre not expecting to be so close(which wouldnt happen with the strong position the JTF2 guys rifle is in, tight to his body and ready to fire). But obviously not every situation is the same, I think at times both strategies have their uses, although more often than not what the JTF2 guy is preaching is favorable.
@@Handcannon77 im sorry but your simply downplaying how important the barrel signature is, theres a difference between "they are in the building moving around" and "they are entering the room right this second".
and the longer you can delay their thought of "they are entering right this second" while actively entering the room, is seconds that you are winning in order to put the fight into your favor, as you decrease the window in time they have to react and react correctly.
further more you talk about how its a stronger position to fight from if someone gets hands on... complete and utter bull.
if you short stock or high port before entering you are preloading a spear thrust prior to your entry... if theres a guy there then
1. you remove their ability to grab your gun as it wont be sticking into the room before you enter into the room.
and 2. if theres a guy standing there and you extend out your rifle your busting some ones head open and either killing or atleast knocking out the guy standing there
theres literally no reason not to do it besides "i dont want to train more" it is the most optimal way to enter a room, its just a question if you've trained it enough that its functional.
coming from a community where millions of rounds go through Glocks and rifles to make every bullet accountable, i find it dumbfounding that repetition to achieve optimal performance is now the devil :/
Great video. Observation not criticism. Why not slide to left/weak side of room and clear it first since it can "hold' less space/threats/bad guys?
I usually hate these videos. This one was brilliant.
When I see a video where a guy starts out calling a gun a “platform” I start to rethink what I’m doing in life watching these videos…
Simple but powerful process. Good shit Randy.
What I been waiting for... Solo CQB!!!
This was really good. The footwork is so efficient. I need work on the gun part but practise that footwork all the time.
Logical and well explained, glad you called out the stock popping theatrics. The gun is always faster and more controllable when mounted.
Thanks for the video!
I'm old enough to remember when the term CQB didn't exist and we just called it house clearing, lol.
yes, but now people think I am referring to a sale when talking about house clearing
I think he’s demonstrating a scenario where getting in the room is pretty important, I guess. Wish he would’ve said. But if you’re alone, a dynamic entry is on the last of your to list. Clear as much of the room as you can from the outside, slowly and quietly.
This would make far more sense if he said this is a scenario where you are alone and cornered and need to bust out. Then that would make sense that you are basically making a 50-50 chance of (hopefully) only running into one threat against you with the split-second advantage.
Otherwise, you're better off just turning around and leaving, especially if you're just some regular guy. Training and drilling the procedure is obviously important but it doesn't make you invincible.
Ef yeah Randy! Quick, clear, clean
Not criticing more like asking, but I could see in your personal point of view camera shot.As you're coming up to the threshold, you can clearly see that right corner is open.Why are you still putting your gunned down that corner instead of to that unknown corner behind u... Would you not prefer after knowing That corner is clear as you can see in the camera angle, Entering with your rifle down to the unknown corner.Either driving down to that corner or quickly moving across the room to make the bad guy track you as you enter. ? Curious your thoughts
You are EXACTLY CORRECT. When he hits the doorway and observes the right corner, he can see the nearly the whole wall so he would know that no threat can be there. In that situation he 100% SHOULD HAVE BUTTONHOOKED to the left corner as it was the only unknown.
The only thing I can chalk it up to is that he was using that entry example generically-assuming that each side of the room was equally "unknown". But the devil's always in the details and in CQB every scenario is different. You always need to take into account those things. But even so if you approach an open door from the left, unless the room is extremely long, you can usually see all but the deep corner on the right side. But the Left side you can't see anything. Even after you center-step you still have much more of the left side that's unknown. In that scenario you really should always buttonhook left UNLESS you have seen/heard something that suggests there's a badguy in the the right corner closely hugging the wall. Short answer is that your instincts were good.
What is a buttonhook?
Thank you from Romania!
Active duty Ranger, Space Marine, Navy Seal, Devgru, CAG, ODA, SAS, Marine Raider here. There is a lot of steps that can fail here. Always throw in a quick C4 or slide in the room and neutralize the bad guys with controlled automatic hip fire 😎😎😎
Thank you for your service(s)
I like to spray and pray… it’s been working wonders…
Framing yourself in the threshold like that upon entry is instant death.
need to gain situational awareness obviously here he is moving at an instructional pace... Kyle Morgan teaches the same thing about working a threshold, these guys have done it at the highest level which is why they are qualified to teach it. no more no less
one man cqb is crazy having the balls to enter any fatal funnel like that is scary
Few thoughts. after your power step in to the right you were shot in the back. To mitigate this I would have "sliced the pie"to the left without breaking the plain into the room, then I would've power stepped into the room to the right, the next guy goes to the left. I heard him say it's not realistic to do this with one guy and I'm assuming this is why(because you leave your back open having not checked the left first). Great video
JTF2 Assualter with an American Flag forearm tattoo?
How do you do if you're the first in an assault column? The one behind you enter and point left in the same moment that you do your power step?
Btw in the vehicle, I do preferd to have my rifle on my weak hand side, grip upside. But then same as you putting the rifle butt upon my shoulder and then pointing.
What if there is a dude directly behind the left door against the wall… you don’t even see him
exactly.....zipped up
makes no sense to go the direction that you have cleared the most and expose your back to the "unknown". if that paper target was an live target he will hit you 9 times out of 10. pie the door, and enter, or go to the danger area or path of "least resistens" ? or am i missing something here ?
Scoping out for office space
What about the Bad Guy that was in the unseen near Left corner that shot you in the back when you made that first Big step into the room?
Yes!
Unfortunately happens in cqb, that's we always try to bombard buildings with ordinance, artillery, tanks, etc. Before clearing it with infantry or SOF
Unless if it's hostage rescue, you're basically highly expected to get fucked up any second once when step in the threshold.
Unless if its a hostage rescue scenario, you're basically going to get messed badly.
We got taught the over the shoulder stuff in building clearing because we all had full length ar’s as our department didnt start upgrading until much later on
over the shoulder and under the shoulder stuff is legit AF. its to reduce signature as you check the corner, this guy is simply a joke. if you got taught the over the shoulder stuff, you got taught better then this clown.
Why not check both 45 degree angle of a doorway then move in?
Fairly new to this stuff. But given the shape of the room, and how easily the right side of the room was seen before entering the room, im suprised that he was instructing to entee the room and take actual steps before checking behind himself in the one corner he wasnt able to check. Would it have been better to take a breath of confidence, and take a step across the door to check the other corner before entering the room?
Excellent! A video with footwork. Thank you.
Question. Do you specifically pivit around with your wall side foot forward? Always?
I have been, well used to, practicing the pivot foot. But not the lunge.
Also, when you see someone and you finally register, they're a friendly. What way are we to slide the muzzle? I'm in. Liking and subscribing.
Aren’t you going to be shot in the back when you step into the room? It seems like you can see there’s nothing in the direction you started before you entered the room. Why not start aimed where you can’t see? Just trying to make sure I’m understanding this properly. Thanks in advance for clarifying.
Can Canadians own or use any of this equipment? What would happen to the average Canadian who used these tactics during a self-defense situation like a home invasion?
Yeah, using their hockey stick, probably the only legal thing for them...sad
Why not go left in that situation? When you set up you are only missing that tiny 3 feet of the riggt side corner. Ide rather turn my back to that 3 feet that my hard corner behind where your target was. That target shot you. There wasnt enough room to hide that target to the right side and you see Most of it from outside already.
This is awesome. Why not go left because you've already cleared much of the right? Or I guess you're just speaking in general terms in choosing one of two corners to drive to?
Good grief…🤦🏻♂️ Ooorrr position back from the threshold as you sweep left to right looking into the room to view as much of the backside as you can with ya muzzle up…approach the threshold from the opposite side muzzle up but not breaching the threshold and take a peep to secure the backside…cycle back to original side muzzle up scanning and theeen punch through the threshold. With this guy’s method in this scenario if there is a backside treat the minute that threshold is breeched ya dead homie. Two man assault…first guy in goes left AFTER a 180 degree step back and scan to evaluate the room’s backside BEFORE punching through. I have never bet my life during a breech on me being 1/4 second faster than the other guy. Eliminate variables beforehand…end of story
I wonder how many students missed the cardboard target and damaged those windows with the sims. Know your target and what is behind it.
is that parliament hill in the background outside?
Thank you! I was looking if you can do single man cqb discussing the tastiest mike gloved used for genes group🙏🏽
Look Great, Thank to the Instructor !
Video is labeled for single man cqb... Then proceeds to not pie the threshold and makes entry to get his back blown put without a 2 man.... I can understand breaking the shoulder to not ALWAYS be the best course of action but it has its place and wasnt gone into in any depth he wants to get gun in the corner asap sacrificing the shoulder break but exposes himself early negating any benefit to being on the gun also acting like we wouldn't be able to point shoot with rifle over the shoulder
I'd look into some looser jeans too. But I guess that's more a matter of preference.
No amount of choreography will make up for the guy on tour weak side waiting for you to ignore him, as you enter, lookin around the big side of the room.
Goood foot work and comprehensive.
you would definitely pie the door, right?
Call me stupid, but if you're checking right corner, but the shooter happens to be on your left? Then aren't you already dead?
He had already pie the right corner before entering the room. He should check his left, but no, he decided to turn his back to the part that he never checked. This video is stupid.
And with the bad guy where he was, you'd be shot so many times... seems like you could have easily looked into the other side of the room where the bad guy was by simply opening the door or looking from the other side of the door?
Why no pie
Glad he said what he did about 1 man entries. Clearing a room solo is high risk at best, suicidal at worst...
as a old Ranger ! From the 80’s get ready to move from there to back to jungle ! All this training is about to go back out the window well maybe not all but Cartel hunting is going to be a lot different
Read their hands. Perfect
Why are you doing dramatic entry with a one-man?
Sweet video, great job and great work. Thanks for your service!!
Fantastic work, best lesson I've ever seen in how to get shot in the back, try this in real life and you'll end up dead, im not standing in front of no closed door if i have space, the same way limited entry was used to clear the right angle, I'm also using limited entry to clear the left, before I commit to entry, and that ballet dance at the end to try and turn around once I'm inside and realize the threat is left, is NOT going to save me. This is top level garbage.
Single man structure clearing is literally the most dangerous thing someone could attempt. Eventually in most structures you will have to make a decision along the 180 degree line for which direction to commit to (for the purpose of going deeper inside the structure). I get your point about using limited entry to try to gain as much info as possible, but in some situations that will only help so much and you'll still have to pick a direction to commit. Add in additional stressors like active threat situations, and yeah you can see why single man structure clearing is asking for death.
@@brdagr And that is a fact.
Luckily only around 1% (probably less) of viewers will ever have to clear a room like this. These types of videos are cool and all, but it's cute how anyone actually thinks that they're going to put these ideas into practice as a civilian.
"lick the rest of this up " excellent
Awesome. Great instruction. Very clear teaching. Thank you
IDK why comments are talking about why not do a full deliberate clear from the threshold. This man is clearly not demonstrating that option, he's showing step centre.
maybe because step center or any dynamic entry is completely useless and the perfect way to commit self death if you doing 1 man cqb?!?!?!? hello? xD
the onlt reason hes showing this dog water is because it looks like what they show in hollywood and it looks good in the videos. this approach is terrible and further more wtf is up with his aversion to collapsing the gun?! this whole demonstration is a complete joke.
@@notsure9301 The question of when to approach as combat clearance or direct entry is far more nuanced and contextual than you believe. The two are very different and are applied to different scenarios, and people shift between them as needed. Even in the same mission profile.
@@parappasan are you telling me that going dynamic when your 1 man is ever a good idea? Especially when you have nothing stopping you from going deliberate? We are not talking about a mission set with a full clearance team.
@Make_Canada_Trudeau-Less-Again the stuff i know comes from basic 10, barricaded flow and other room clearance methods. Its safe to say that i have forgoten more then you know, if you think what i have to say on the topic is wrong.

Excellent video just got asked to turn volume down at a bar while watching it. Bunch of Nancies in here.
You're watching videos at the bar ? Must be a boring ass place
Everyone complaining about why he did not go left. THAT was the whole point! Hence the "not optimal". It not COD people. Real world entry, point man is ALWAYS right. Always. That's why you need a minimum 2 stack.
You could make all the perfect entry as per TTP and STILL get domed by a threat in a corner under some desk or concealed behind trash.
He pretty much cleared the right which you can see at 4:03 in the video. The dead space was to the right which you could see when he had to do basically a 180 to engage a target which would have shot him in the back! Definitely should have button hooked in my opinion! You are right when more than 1 is better! Also just because the point man leads the way doesn’t mean he is actually right all the time!
point man cant be wrong... but he can be dumb. and that's what everyone is getting at, he made a very dumb call. and if you arent trying to find the most optimal way to clear a building, what are we doing here? honestly ask yourself that. are we just running into buildings in order to look tough and die like morons? or would we rather dominate all the angles and not allow the enemy a chance to hurt us? your mind state over this is all jacked up on outdated CQB dogma and Hollywood propaganda of what a "good soldier" is...
@@LRowe-ld1og point man is never wrong... but he can be Re***ded. and this is a blatant example of that saying.
simply saying "this is not cod" does not mean it gives you free reign to enter into the meat grinder of cqb and do this outdated BS...
So why don't you clear the blind first so to speak? You an see the majority of the room, and it's empty, why not move to clear the small of the room to avoid being shot in the back?
I should have probably added that I really want to know, and not that I'm being a wise guy
Its really a center fed room so there are actually two deep corners. In a corner fed room there is only one deep corner.
If you are doing 2 man entry the number one man chooses and is always right whichever way he chooses to go. If that makes sense.
Im not questioning his tactics that is not an optimal room to show which corner is deeper as it is a center fed room.
Hope that helps.
You are right you should always drive the deep corner or the unknown first unless the threshold assessment gives you stimulus to go the opposite way.
It’s a troll video

What about a pistol?
Far more suited than a long
I am sure this is a dumb question but does it matter which direction you go based on what side of the body the rifle is on? Also will I be able to shoot left handed in the CAF? (assuming they stop making signing up an absolute chore)
Yes, you will be able to shoot and operate the rifle left handed in the CAF and no, you don't choose a side based on the side of the body you operate the rifle from.

You stepped right into the middle of the doorway. Had a bad guy been to your left or even directly in front of you or hiding around the corner on the right side of the room you most likely would have been toast or hamburger. Just my observation. I'm no pro.
Can you show this with a pistol?
Making the best of a shitty situation. Circumstances will dictate, as for myself I want to get as much visual into the room as I possibly can before pushing off. I'm also going to deploy a banger, and yes they can be obtained by citizens [ this has been impeded by current White House policy ].

Dude just fuckin lives in that threshold. That "snapshot" at the cut will get you shot in the face. If that's the best that Canada can do, y'all need to send some more dudes to train with the US Army. I kicked in doors for a little over 3 years in Iraq, and I say with full confidence this guy's teaching will get people killed. If you're trying to get eyes into a room to develop the situation, you don't do it from the threshold, you do it from as far back in the room you're in as you can, as that presents a minimal target for anyone in the other room vs just stepping out in full view of the cut. Which gives you better options for moving off the X and into cover/concealment, being a foot away from the door which is just concealment, or being 10 feet back into a room where you can action to one side quickly and be completely concealed by the walls separating the room? And he's wrong as hell about driving the stock past the shoulder. Homeboy has obviously never muzzle thumped someone, or he would know that extra movement to drive the rifle forward in a hands on situation generates way more power. To be fair, Canada hasn't conducted near as many real world CQB operations in the modern age, so it makes sense that they're stuck in early 2000's style tactics like this.
Y'all???? 😂 You have not won a single conflict in 80 years.....I think the only thing you have ever done is played call of duty......Why don't you go to Ukraine and prove yourself in a real war....
@jonnywishbone1342 so, instead of arguing the content of my statement, you resort to an ad hominem attack. Quality keyboard commando behavior. How long have you been fighting in Ukraine? I only ask because you telling me to prove myself is fucking hilarious if you haven't. If I gave half a shit about Ukraine or their war, I'd have already joined their International Legion. I'd also love for you to go up to someone from your country who served in Iraq and tell them it wasn't a real war, see how they respond.
Yet, JTF2 was selected to do a capture mission early in Gulf2 by US command (there's a picture of them disembarking from a USAF CH-53 with pajama boys in tow) and JTF2 don't even really train for capture, only kill, yet they were chosen. Not Delta, not SEALS, not SAS etc, JTF2. Pretty sure they had to kick some doors with real bad guys behind them, and not the women, children, bakers and cab drivers you mashed 😉 The Canucks might be grossly underfunded and screwed by their Chyna loving PM to no end but just using Wainwright as an e.g., they consistently smoke the US in war games.
@swh0rd682 that raid was in southern Iraq, and that battlespace was British and Canadian to deal with. Ever notice how when you'd watch the news you'd never hear stories of US anyone doing anything at all in cities like Basra? Because there weren't US troops operating in a place that was an allied nation's AOR. Gee, I wonder why the Canadians did a unilateral raid in their AOR....... I love it when the keyboard commandoes start their shit when they have absolutely zero frame of reference for the topic they're talking about so confidently. Also, in Sadr City, both deployments I ended up there, it was mostly members of JAM we were raiding, and those dudes even had foreign mercenaries fighting with them like Chechens and shit. Lots of speculation from people who've never done shit with their lives, but that's why YT entertains me.
@swh0rd682 oh, also, literally every combat arms soldier trains on EPW drills. That means capturing people alive. You just implied that they don't train in a skill set that even the basic Canadian infantry trains.

How do you account for the guy to the left side of the room? cant you pie [more of] the room off even before entering? the "bad guy" target you have behind the door on the left side tells me that i'd have to be dealing with a complete idiot of a bad guy to not catch some metal in the back. heaven forbid he is already aiming at the door....you'd be toast as soon as you walked in.
