      @@Ripa-Moramee In CoD2, the drop'n'shoot strategy was actually useful with auto guns, especially the stg44. You could start shooting before you were even 100% on target, aim high, drop while doing it and thanks to the stg44's vertical spray pattern with very little horizontal spread, you had a good chance of hitting the head at some point. If not, the shots would still at least hit the neck and chest. So in specific situations, you could target the head in a way. It was more about using inaccuracy to your advantage than trying to score precise hits.

He said when those AKs go full auto they rise, so if the first rounds missed you and you get down quickly, you had more time to engage and a pretty high chance of surviving the contact.

    Bit of trivia, The SOG guys during Vietnam would drill diving for cover while dumping a full mag from a car-15 at multiple targets, basically drilling if you suddenly find yourself 15ft from an enemy patrol, and some of them apparently got pretty good at it. Not a situation you want to be in for sure. But in the jungle, shit can come at you out of nowhere.

      @@paulwilliams667 Out of all of them it seems the most plausible irl, it could catch someone off and be a good move if you yourself aren't already in position. But just already being down or holding a position is infinitely better. Better to drop shooting if you can be accurate with it then just hit the ground, cause if you just stand there and fire you're dead.
      Sorta like the anti knife moves in martial arts. You absolutely never want to be in a position where you have to go bare hands vs someone with a knife. But if you do, well here is a move that might save your ass.

    I heard about a U.S. soldier in Vietnam who fired 2 handguns at the same time. He was alone and wasn't going for lethality, but for suppression. I think he magdumped both guns and dipped. Apparently in that context it worked.

      @@taylorbennion3706 can't remember where I saw it, but I think you're right about him being a sniper.

      I think it was Carlos Hathcock. The story as I remember it was he ran through an enemy camp firing his 2 1911s (I believe they were his and his spotters sidearms). They were taken unawares and panicked thinking they had been raided by a large force, and in the chaos he slipped away. I'm sure its not too hard to look up the full story.
