Why doesn’t he flip his NVG’s up in daytime at least? IDK why that bothered me.
Sentinels create a pretty substantial tellietubby effect due to them not being able to swing outward when stowed like 31s/15s. It’s probably so he doesn’t snag them on shit, plus trying to closely mimic the conditions they’re emphasizing which is more than likely going to occur under nods. The weight distribution of a helmet+nods is enough to alter some mechanics especially when that center of mass is moved forward like when the nods are down. He’s a capable dude, I don’t think he’s doing it for gram credit. Regardless, I’m just here for that SR16 shorty *drools.
I wondered too. It almost looks like he is looking just under them so I am wondering if he can tilt his head a bit and look through them. I have never tried that but, if possible, that would beat constantly flipping them up and down.
NODS DOWN FOR WHAT!
When talking to one of his instructors he stated that they ran them that way over in the desert because they would go from daylight to pitch black when they entered a mud hut. So it was just easier to run them a little high and look under them in the day light but as soon as they got in a “dark” area they were already down and they could flow faster.
Dude is spot on, awesome to see a realistic shooting drill taught to be executed in full kit…nod’s are awesome, but damn if you don’t train with them to a certain level, watch how much they chingas you up..
Did he mention the target distance? I was listening for it… Could have missed it.
