"This shooting stance requires the feet to be positioned in a figure-eight slightly wider than the shoulders, with the legs naturally straightened, the left arm hanging naturally or the left hand placed at the waist. Shooting is carried out through five operations: standing, gripping, straightening, extending, and turning. It is the most scientific and fundamental shooting posture."
Then he fired a shot: Bang~
"Ten rings."
"This stance has the advantages of a long aiming baseline and the front sight being far from the eyes. At the same time, the support arm is parallel to the body's side, reducing lateral twisting, thus reducing muzzle drift, increasing accuracy, and making it easier to hit relatively stable targets."
"Score-based shooting competitions mostly adopt this shooting stance, and it is the standard configuration for every Olympic shooting champion."
"But it is not without drawbacks. Simply put, this stance is aimed at pursuing shooting accuracy, but the aiming time is too long, making it unsuitable for rapid shooting. Therefore, it is most commonly seen in shooting ranges and competitions, and is the most basic operational stance for beginners."
Then he switched to a two-handed gun-holding position and said: "This is the Weaver stance for two-handed shooting. The so-called Weaver stance refers to the side-standing posture, taking a step forward, with the gun-holding hand basically straightened, and the other arm's elbow bent downward, enveloping the gun-holding hand. The body's center of gravity is on the front foot, with the rear leg straightened. This stance has advantages like a small exposure area, fast gun-raising positioning speed, quick stability, good directionality, and allows rapid shooting."
"In Hollywood movies, American police often use this stance, which is considered the ancestor of two-handed shooting."
Bang~
"Nine rings."
"Next is the more practical Isosceles Triangle stance in shooting competitions." After speaking, the person switched to another stance, which appeared more symmetrical.
"The Isosceles Triangle stance requires the shooter to face the target directly, with the feet spread apart slightly wider than shoulder width, knees slightly bent forming an elastic support, toes pointing slightly inward, chest slightly down, shoulders collapsing to lower the body's center of gravity, arms naturally extended, right hand holding the gun similar to a single-arm stance, shooting without needing to close the opposite eye for aiming."
Bang~
"Ten rings."
The process was completed smoothly, prompting Li Xiang to shout: Awesome.
This person is a master.
"The advantage of the Isosceles Triangle stance compared to single-handed is that this stance is easier to master, offers better shooting stability and continuity, suitable for low-light conditions or close-range shooting during searches, or forced shooting in unstable situations, making it a shooting method closer to actual combat."
Li Xiang, hearing him praise this gun skill, asked: "Does this shooting method have any drawbacks?"
The man glanced at Li Xiang and said, "There is no perfect thing in this world; its drawback is that the gun-holding method results in a larger body exposure area, lacking flexibility in movement, making it inconvenient for shooting multi-angle targets. Therefore, it is not advisable to use in open duels without cover. It better meets the requirements for quick draw and fast shooting in police operations and competitions; you can start practicing this first."
After speaking, he was not planning to continue talking, but at this moment, Li Xiang's curiosity was piqued, so he continued asking: "Are there other gun-holding methods?"
"Of course, there's also a more combat-oriented C.A.R Shooting Position, which is a more niche shooting stance, better suited for CQB operations, responding especially quickly in emergencies, lifting the hand to shoot, and the gun is closer to the shooter's torso, making it harder for opponents to snatch the gun. The body's exposure is also minimal, reducing the bullet-facing surface. It requires less space, making it very suitable for shooting in narrow spaces."
After speaking, he looked at Li Xiang and seriously said, "But as a newcomer, you only need to practice single-arm stance and the Isosceles Triangle stance; the others are far from us."
Then he continued his practice.
"Thanks, brother, I've learned a lot."
After the stance was corrected, Li Xiang no longer needed to deliberately lower the muzzle to counteract the gun's recoil, but instead used his whole body strength to suppress the gun's recoil, and he held the gun with more vigor.
Bang~
"Seven rings."
Bang~
"Six rings."
...
Out of a base of 40 handgun bullets, Li Xiang's shooting skill generally stabilized around eight rings, sometimes even reaching nine and ten rings, but not very consistently. For someone who just started handling a gun like Li Xiang, this is already considered rapid progress.
This was also thanks to the modern shooting range, allowing timely adjustments to his trajectory.
At this moment, Li Xiang suddenly heard a loud explosion that drowned out all gunshots.
"What's going on?"
All 24 people at the range stopped shooting and started asking each other.
"Explosion occurred?"
"Let's go out and see."
Everyone participating in the training here is essentially elite police officers from across the city, except Li Xiang, who was brought here to compete by the system.
Seeing everyone preparing to go check the situation, Li Xiang quickly followed them out.
In the simulation, the system won't arrange scenarios without reason. This explosion should indicate a sudden situation, and based on the system's usual habits, handling these emergencies is one of the keys to fast-tracking the simulation.
This drama is something he should see.
Just as they reached the door, a 'beep beep' sound came from everyone's devices.
It was the sound of police communication devices, prompting everyone to quickly check them: "Attention all units, the Guosheng Bank vault on Xinjie Road has been bombed. A citizen reported encountering armed criminals; police units nearby, please hurry to support."
"What? Guosheng Bank vault was bombed?"
"Xinjie Road is very close to here, no wonder the sound was so loud."
As everyone was in shock, Li Xiang suddenly saw the police officer who just taught him gun skills running in a specific direction with his pistol.
Given his current unfamiliarity with the system, the person who taught him gun skills is definitely a master. While everyone else is busy being shocked, he was already the first to rush out; his reaction was at least a class above the others.
Thus, Li Xiang quickly chased after him, leveraging his agility bonus to catch up to him quickly.
The more they ran ahead, the more panicked faces scattered in their direction they saw, all indicating how terrifying the scene just was.
Because they were so close, the two quickly arrived at the Guosheng Bank entrance, where a white assault vehicle was parked, guarded by two armed robbers with guns, with a driver inside ready to support at any time.
At the bank entrance, two other robbers with guns were carrying a black bag, attempting to load it into the vehicle.
"This simulation is intense."
This kind of situation could only occur in the simulation, as realistically, rushing against heavily armed individuals with powerful rifles would result in being turned into a beehive in less than a second.
Li Xiang followed the person and hid behind granite, seeing Li Xiang catch up, he nodded towards him: "The bandits are already loading the vehicle; we must find a way to stall them and wait for SWAT support."
"What kind of plan? Just charge in."
