How to Hold Your Rifle If You’re Big and Tall

in Authors, Basic Skills, S.H. Blannelberry, Shoot Better

GunsAmerica editor-in-chief David Higginbotham is a big guy.  I think he’s 6 foot, 4 inches tall.

When it comes to shouldering and handling modern sporting rifles with shorter barrels and adjustable stocks, David had some questions about the optimal way to carry and shoot the platform.

As you’ll see in the video above, David had the opportunity to discuss the matter with Daniel Shaw, a retired U.S. Marine Infantryman and Combat Weapons Master Instructor.

 

GunsAmerica produced this video in conjunction with Funker Tactical and Thunderbird Tactical last winter. To see some of the other cool videos we made during our trip to Wichita, Kansas, click on the links below:
