It's called situational awareness, home boy. Guns are very loud and concussive. When you're shooting them it is easy to lose track of what is going on around you. When these guys check over their shoulder, they're not just looking for other threats, but also checking on their buddies who may have been injured during the fight. It's good practice. Try shooting guns sometime and you might understand the underlying principles.
No, I just explained what it is. It's good practice.
Situational awareness is maintained depending on the situation itself. Randomly swinging your head around after firing your rifle is not situational awareness.
You're not randomly swinging your head, you're looking behind your back. Do you just randomly swing your head when you do a shoulder check?
Nah. Situational awareness is fundamentally maintaining a 3D map of your environments and relevant things in it in your own mind. Where am I? Where are my allies? Where are enemies? What risks, dangers, cover, routes of egress and lines of sight are there? How am I situated in all of this?
It's a constant process that's supposed to be running in the back of your head at all times. Swinging your head around after shooting doesn't even contribute to that. The primary focus of your awareness should be at your front, where you just considered something worth shooting at, something to be a danger, so that is where your focus should be focused on. Look at the target and its surroundings, take cover to protect yourself from other angles if that's practical.
Practicing some retard-drill where you shoot a couple rounds and then look around as if the threat was somehow intrinsically neutralized is moronic, a blatant fucking LARP.
>You're not randomly swinging your head, you're looking behind your back. Do you just randomly swing your head when you do a shoulder check?
Randomly looking behind your back is randomly swinging your head.
Unless you have an actual situational reason for looking behind you, it IS random.

It just seems to me a lot of people have just watered it down into muscle memory with two half-assed shakes of the head without giving it any background thought.
if you are going to practice it, at least visually look for something like what colour the garbage can in the corner was and the skin colour of the guy down the far end of the line. doing the little dork head sweeps while not actually scanning for something is pointless.

do what now? my rifle doesn’t have a safety
I do and I'm 100 % gay
I find it hilarious
Anyone using slims only shoots small round counts.
yeah, we were taught that in the finnish army support shooter course this year.
the point was to look both ways after the target is down to check your squadmates situation and keep good situational awareness in general.
Ziga coomed inside Manca ;(
Bless all three of them, but that muzzle device looks askew. Is it because of the recoil pattern relative to the left/right handiness-of the person?
Or perhaps it's just the sort of build quality you'd expect from Slavware
this is now a manca thread
SEXO
How to get manca gf?
Imagine how small she is, that a Vz.58 can look that large in her hands. Lucky guy.
>Lucky guy.
Manlet sons.
>Do people still do that gay over the shoulder look after safing?
It's called the Kyle Check. It's to make sure your shooting buddy isn't wigging out.
why didnt Kyle do the Kyle Check at the gun range?
It's named after him because he invented it by negative example.
You do the Kyle Check so you don't end up like Chris Kyle.

So it's just larp, got it. Thanks

>We intentionally trained him wrong... As a joke.

You paid for one of these courses, didn't you?

I heard and instructor describe that as looking but not seeing.
