If your entire firearms skill set only works while standing perfectly upright on a flat range… your training has gaps.
The world is three dimensional. Fights are chaotic. Cars, curbs, hallways, furniture, bodies, uneven ground, and awkward angles change everything.
That’s why our students shoot from seated positions, kneeling, prone, urban prone, squatting, rollover positions, and around real cover. Because bullets don’t care how good your competition stance looks.
People love to criticize “non standard” shooting positions until they actually have to shoot from underneath a vehicle, around a tire, off the ground, or from a compressed position trying to get PID without exposing half their body. AND we’re not even talking about the close quarters fight which requires additional training in itself.
Reality doesn’t happen on a perfectly painted firing line.
Do you believe standing square-range shooting alone is enough preparation for a real defensive encounter?
Problem solving under pressure.
Retention shooting. One-handed manipulations. Movement. Decision-making. Competing on the clock. Working against another human instead of just paper.
Because real violence is fast, chaotic, and unforgiving. Train accordingly.
Follow SDR for more capability-based training.

The Glock platform everyone knows and loves… just chambered in .22. Same feel, same size, same holster compatibility as the Glock 19 — but with almost zero recoil and cheap reps.
And before the comments start… yes, we know the caliber debate never ends. Funny enough, .22 LR has probably accounted for more deaths worldwide than almost any other round.
So let’s hear it:
Would you trust a .22 for self-defense if it was the only gun you had? Why or why not? 👇

Most people only train from perfect positions on a flat range.
But real defensive shootings may involve vehicles, awkward angles, confined spaces, or shooting from the ground. If you’ve never trained outside the “standard” stance, how prepared are you really?
What’s the most unconventional position you’ve ever had to shoot from in training?
