Over the last couple of years, I have come to decide that in the vast majority of likely armed encounters, it is best to drop to a kneeling stance to fire. First of all, when you are in danger, you want to present as small of a target as possible. Second, as we are responsible tor everything our bullets ultimately hit, we want to angle them upward, rather than in a straight line between and past us and the bad guy. I also find that I can fire more accurately, although I would say many people wouldn't if they had never tried it before on the range.
I THINK, it's always best to TRY to get a kneeling shot provided that: You actually have TIME to take a knee, and that it isn't obviously MORE hazardous to bystanders in a given situation. (Like, you drop to a knee, and realize that you are shooting through the BG, up into the loaded balcony of the food court.
Are there obvious flaws in this reasoning?
