Have you ever gotten a chance to shoot the M-27? It's amazing. A lot smoother than the M16 when it comes to recoil and a blessing from chesty puller to clean.

Shooting with both eyes open is fine if you're shooting with a red dot scope at a target a few meters away. Firing at a target 200-500 yards away with iron sites is a totally different animal and therefore requires a totally different style of shooting.

In shot gun shooting we try to develop dominant eye shooting, thus allowing both eyes to be kept open.

Ignorant comment. They were shooting at long distance. That's something that needs one of your eye closed.

The symphony of bone support, eye relief, sight alignment, sight picture, natural point of aim, breath control, trigger control, whether in slow fire or rapid fire is an art that few have mastered or appreciated.

+1 on the detail of Sight Picture of actually showing what is in focus and what is out of focus. In basic, some soldiers (Army) were trying time and time again to try and focus both front sight post AND their target just because of the cheesy slideshow that showed EVERYTHING in focus. And another +2 on the 2 ways of "Trigger Squeeze" and using "Trigger Reset" to their advantage.

All of this is still taught but it doesnt go into detail on reading wind and applying it to the rifle since they all use optics now. But the fundamentals are still taught. Only now they do more close in training as well.

In deadly, mortal combat, you rarely have time to aim. In VN we never had a sling on our rifles. Rifle was always in our hands.
@hoppinggnomethe4154

It depends. Many skirmishes in Vietnam happened at close range in which suppressing fire at the general direction from the hip was one of the best things you could do. Slings or not, some had, and some didn't. Some got actual sling, and some got makeshift sling made from parachute cord.

In Afghanistan first rotation right after 9-11, we never engaged guys under 300 yards. With acogs we were dropping guys, no problem. But they were good at removing their people, we never really knew how many were done. Or patched up to fight another day. Early on back home regular people wanted their pound of flesh, and thought we were being coy saying we rarely met these people and had no idea on numbers. This changed later on, and even more so in iraq. But in either, anytime outside our r Fob's that weapon was never slung, and it was because of the lessons learned by you in vn. No joke I recall that being drilled in, with references to why and what was learned by previous generations.
