Coolest part of this is that even though DJ and Cole may know this, they quietly follow along and are willing to learn. That’s how you know they’re real leaders.
Excellent Tactic, I've used this to finally dominate my children in Nerf Tag CQB. Seriously though, these skill sets are great developer's for muscle memory and efficient weapon handling when practiced repetitively. Thanks Guys! You've earned much respect.

I’m a Marine veteran. Served 12 years and spent half those years with 1st Recon BN out of 33 Area(Margarita) at Camp Pendleton. I just wanted to say really quick how proud I am that our country produces men like this. Because of men like these 3 gents, the people of the good ol USA can truly rest peacefully at night knowing confidently that they will wake up and be able to enjoy another day of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. So thank you Field Craft and GBRS for all that you’ve done, all that you do, and all that you will do.
@@muffinhackerwhat these guys are teaching and passing on is truly a trade. It’s passed on from generation to generation of Special operators and the majority of their training has evolved solely on the guys who have been deployed and created tactics and systems that continue to evolve. This is more of a natural evolution from man to man than directive from the govt. the govt needs these guys not the other way around.
@@adtemporary69 we are better off not giving them that. The atf, cia, and other agencies have these guys. Let’s level the plain field. Because with the amount of training I got I’m still limited. The government has weapons, money and complete sanctions to kill and destroy. So if you are ex combat and you work for the government, you are an automatic traitor.
Love the humility in this vid, true professionalism on display. We can never do enough training or learning of new perspectives. Thats always the difference between guys who think they’re John Wick and actual men of the craft. Respect.
@@toiletpapermatters698 took me way to long in life to understand the importance of details and nuances. Spent too much time focusing on the larger goal to see them and understand how they accumulate.
@@user-ou9ft9th3h No? I learned some. How do you think fake seals get info on what seals do? Just go on youtube and mix and match stories and make it their own. If you think bad people cant learn from these I dont know what to tell you
On my 1st deployment in Summer 2006 to Iraq at height of highly kinetic deployments we had to fight through complex ambush into large 3 story abandoned Government building with 8 man section since we had casulty collection point in court yard waiting on QRF. Another patrol was hit also about 2Ks away. So alot of people being stepped on company net. We knew points of donination etc etc. We had a SEAL plt we also trained with at our COP so we where efficient and confident but all that combat stride smooth clear turned into a trigger raping kill everything in that room when 1 guy swung an AK and blind fired into the room. We had a SAW gunner keep fire superiority and just tossed every frag we had. Then did Recon by fire. I was just a Marine Grunt but after we went back and talked about to a couple SEAL plt guys they said you will fall to your lowest level of training at a situation that close most of times
This is the truest statement ever, once that first zip passes by everything goes out the window and body mechanics kicks in, that's why I have always emphasized on training, so muscle memory kicks in. It should be as natural as breathing, because there is no 3rd place in battle.
@Obersturmführer Klein Chill out bro. Most videos are Mike asking the GBRS guys for their thoughts, so it's only fair that he have some videos on his own channel that include him doing most of the talking.
Guys, I am a school guardian and we trained on single man CQB this past summer. I thought it was crazy being a former SWAT guy. The training value of this video is huge. I am going to share this with my chain of command and get this out to the guys. This training will help our Guiadians stay alive. Thank you for taking the time and presenting this training, hands down some of the best I have seen.
@@scottsmith31 And? Let's say he was lying. Who cares? The ATTITUDE is correct and maybe the positive reinforcement of all upvotes will inspire someone who IS an Armed Security Guard for a school to do this exact thing. 1 Life, 1 Child is worth way more than you feeding your petty ego trying to call someone out for shit you don't even know, and doesn't even matter. Grow the F up.
@@scottsmith31 This is such an awesome comment. Shitting on people on the internet is so cool, man. You should start a UA-cam channel and share all of your knowledge with us, please. Dipshit.
There's something badass about the fact that I'm sitting here learning basic military tactics from literally the best people in the world at it. All while eating a bagel. In my underwear.
From someone who has done real CQB in combat, that cold run was fire. dead space was covered, sectors of fire was spot on. short room and long room Tactics was perfect. So Bad Ass gents.
Hey mate, just be careful about speaking on your military experience online. A lot of hackers from places like China and Russia are really going hard on trying to infiltrate Western militaries, and it starts by identifying individual soldiers like you, finding out your identity, and then using concentrated methods to get digital info that would let them hack the broader military and government using your devices and by also impersonating you to gain access.
That cold run in the beginning was so sick to watch. Also like I think a few other guys have said, it’s cool to see cross service training being shown where top tier operators kind of just show different scenarios and give different solutions. Super cool video
There was a critical error at the top of the stairs during break off that could've easily ended up with a congested realignment where you'd be firing through your teammate. Of course your teammate would be taking fire while you're safely behind him like a lame duck, but same difference.
It's like watching a well choreographed dance. Holy cow. Don't know much about this type of CQB as a civilian, but it was epic. So much detail in movement and positioning to clear all the areas. Thank you for showing us this.
The kind of time it takes to get this good is insane. It's literally just countless days all day, live fires hitting notecards on bad guys. Miss the card, fail and after hours practice for that mistake. And watch this again, you see any hand signals or talking? Nobody tripped up, confused about who does what, or went at the same time at choke points. Repetition and scenario training to the point eye contact and muscle memory, its like riding a bike. Could you imagine a few dozen of these kind of dudes hunting you, with the full backing and resources of the us military and our govt? Nightmare fuel.
Even as a civilian videos like this help a lot. Most likely scenario where I’d be in a firefight is not assaulting a building with 3-4 buddies. It’s someone is in my house and I have to get rid of them effectively. Watching videos isn’t a replacement for actual professional training, but this kind of knowledge can give us civilians an edge in a home invasion type thing and is super accessible. Thanks y’all.
IN REAL SPEAK! US AMERICANS ARE SECURITY CONSCIOUS. YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO DEFEND YOURSELF. I DON'T OWN GUNS. IF OTHER PEOPLE HAVE GUNS THAT'S FINE. I ALWAYS BELIEVE PEOPLE KILL PEOPLE, NOT GUNS. I'M FROM CONNECTICUT ONE OF THE MOST FIREARM INDUSTRY IN THE WORLD. MAKERS OF THE BEST FIREARMS IN THE WORLD. I WAS BROUGHT UP TO RESPECT FIREARMS FROM MY FATHER, IT'S NOT THE FIREARM, IT'S THE "MIND-SET" BEHIND THAT WORRIES ME ABOUT SOME HAVE, ESPECAILLY IN OUR COUNTRY!
You must have a lot of enemies or live in a really shitty neighbourhood if you are that worried about home invasions. Change your attitude or move. Problem solved.
I've been really stoked seeing you guys all work together on these training videos! Like many of us, I'm a civilian who literally grew up in the woods with a BB gun in my hand, so having a weapon in my hand is very natural. I've always had a strong sense of self preparedness, and self reliance. With all the tragic events unfolding in the world at a very rapid rate now, I've been trying to learn a few pointers on real world tactics. I think this knowledge transfer is essential to our survival. Especially during this pivotal time! Seriously, thanks to you guys for doing these videos!!
@@logan.stark777 Might want to look up how he cheated on his wife, had a shadow IG account for his foolishness, got called out by his own father, left his kid in the lurch. Not to mention the recent GBRS drama with a "stolen" lower. He's PNG'd at his former Command. Host of shady money issues. Dude is chest deep in drama and lies.
Amazing humility and grace to see elite warriors still allowing knowledge transfer and learning regardless wether they agree or not. DJ’s nod to Mike to see if that entry was acceptable was awesome. They’ve done more and forgot more real life war fighting than 99% will ever learn.
As an SRO/ SWAT operator, I know that I might be the only armed person in a school in the event of an active shooter. I’m always looking to become better and this one person CQB definitely helps. This is the first time I watch one of your videos. Good content gentleman
I love that Cole is a Southpaw to show their perspective of CQB tactics. Although I'm right dominant and trained ambidextrous, it's still important to show all techniques from various perspectives. 👍🏽
I'm team Cole all the way being a lefty myself. I admire the way at 11:25 he decided to enter room and go left instead of making it easier on himself by going right. Love the shared knowledge Mike. Keep it up!
CQB of the highest level with one of the best prepared guys in the world where he is taught only in the most badass courses available for free. In a group like this I had not yet seen. Very instructive!
Something that really stood out to me, that I try to explain to people who have never really been around guns. First rule of firearms is to treat them like they are always loaded. Here we have three guys who are at the pinnacle of professionalism and ability when it comes to firearms. They even confirm at the beginning that their weapons are clear. Even still, when they are about to show a full clear of the room, they all get out so they are not swept by the guy demonstrating the clear.
I do a bit of acting , and if real weapons or replicas are used on set I always check to see if they are clear even if they have no triggers and are out of commission . A habit I guess
14:00 I like to see "mistakes". I learned more from my mistakes on how to recover from those mistakes when considering solutions where some are better than others, though they all may work. People will freeze or waste time trying to understand what went wrong if they have only seen the "right way" with no errors introduced. And I am talking about software applications! An expert is someone who has made all the mistakes...and learned from them. Paraphrased from author unknown.
As a 22 year LEO, this transfer of knowledge is invaluable. I’d love to see more of these demonstrations utilizing pistols, as that’s my primary weapon system when room clearing / CQB.
@Fourgotten I'm not an expert at all, so please note that with my reply and take all of this with a grain of salt, but I imagine there is a TREMENDOUS difference in effect on a target between a 9x19mm Luger slug at 1,400 FPS and a 5.56x45mm NATO at 3,260 FPS. Something like 3 TIMES energy foot pounds greater force for the latter. There's a reason our troops weren't running around with their M9s out all day in combat instead of their M4 etc. Nevermind range, accuracy, and magazine capacity.
@Fourgotten nope velocity matters. Pistols are harder to master than rifles and there's a reason a lot of people train 5 rounds in the a zone. You never know what someone is doped up on and may need to put several rounds on target. Until the threat is removed
@FourgottenNot an expert either, seen some videos that seem credible. If your not familiar with it, look up hydrostatic shock. Active Self Protection has a lot of videos where center mass hits with a pistol doesn't drop someone quickly. There is one in particular that comes to mind where police drop a guy instantly with a rifle due to the hydrostatic shock, and he comments on this. In short, hydrostatic shock is transfer of energy by liquids. A bullet moving above 2,000 feet per second has a different effect on the body than one moving around ,1400, enough so that the hydrostatic shock can disrupt the central nervous system and drop the target instantly, if temporarily, without having to hit it directly.
Mike has done a video on single man CQB using a sidearm. Personally, as a now civilian, I too am more than likely using a sidearm as well, however its the exact same concepts rifle vs sidearm, the difference is weapons manipulation, which you have tons more of using a rifle vs sidearm. As a LEO I'm curios why you wouldnt have a rifle or shotgun if youre going into an environment where youd have to be doing a house clearing. You're better served having both, weapons jam, fail, and at times rendered inoperable. I'm sure there are reasons as a LEO, not being one, I am curious why this isnt an option for you.
As someone who is a LEO, I found this video very informative. Lots of useful insight, especially the concept of always having a firing solution and eliminating unnecessary movement.
The most impressive thing is something that is inherent to all high level practitioners of anything: the ability to implement new concepts and techniques IMMEDIATELY. Watching these men share knowledge and put it into practice with no hesitation is humbling to say the least.
As one of the LE guys watching, I really like the way you move past the open door. In addition to the advantages you gave, it also puts your body armor square to any potential threat. Less chance of taking a round under the arm where body armor doesn't cover. Love the training! Thanks!
Always the first thing that comes to my mind when walking through a doorway or clearing an area like that is keeping my chest facing the direction of the possible threat same thing with approaching a front door and an unknown situation try to always have somewhat of a covering if possible but never sideways always chest facing direction to make sure I have the most protection possible Little things like that he shows in the video really could be the difference between life or death. Stay safe. 🇺🇸

@@JohnSmith-nf8bi There are so many things that are "common sense" that are built on nuances most people don't even realize they are doing. Common sense is more "common experience". Just think, in 10 years or less, common sense will be seen as being able to navigate electronics, rather than an understanding and application of physics.
Watching these three is like watching Leonardo da vinci painting a portrait. Absolutely brilliant, perfect balance and silent communication. AWESOME work.
Just watched this with my grandfather, a WWII vet...he said, "We'd just lob grenades to the left, right, and in front...bad guys dead". He then said he was glad he wasn't fighting you guys back then. Ha! Good job gentlemen.
Mike is so good at delivering the critical information in a clear and concise manner. Professionalism. I’ve come back to this video several times. Outstanding.
Never get tired of watching how these special forces guys move. Its like water. That B roll building clear in the beginning gave me goosebumps. Every single step so well rehearsed and thought out.
Firing from the retracted position reminds me of Ken Hackethorn's story about talking with WWII veterans who used Thompsons and would point shoot in close quarters distances from a very similar position (stock tucked under the arm)
I have been praying for the last week for the start of this type of training. Thank you for your diligence not only in training but in putting this together. You are the answer to prayers.
Having done CQB many years ago w/ Fed LE, the level of detail in instruction here, from some of our best, is 2nd to none. I briefly struggled with safety discipline with my firearm early on back then & that’s one of the many nuances you will notice here immediately. Damn good instruction, operators! And Thank You all for your service🙏🏽
Best stuff on UA-cam watching you 3 move together, I find zen. And the way you guys articulate is awesome. Please keep it up, a lot of knowledge being transferred!
Went through cqb training at Ft Carson Co. When I was working for DOJ . Worked on sniper training as well. Afterwards I have never walked through a door again without visually scanning. Was Army 14 years went through Urban warfare training our Plt Sgt and Sqd Leaders were all Nam Vets. They taught us to frag it then go in.
Really love this kind of content for a simple civvie like myself. I have a wife and young son and this is something I can apply in protecting my household. A wealth of information. Thanks guys!
@@nazinas21 yep I turn 30 at the end of this month, did 7.5 years in the Army, but now my only focus is defending my family. I have a neighborhood readiness group and we train at a shoothouse 10 min from our neighborhood so we are becoming a proper squad
Knowledge transfer at its finest! Mike I hope to see Kevin Owens in more videos with you he is one of my favorites! Fieldcraft survival collaborating with GBRS Group is incredible!
Holy - shit. The fact that me, a civilian without any military training whatsoever, can have this kind of quallity content from people with the background like them, seeing them in action, correcting themselves, giving feedback and so on it just baffles m, even if its just to improve my airsoft cqb gameplay. Fantastic, thank you very much
Wow! Tier one training for civilians! Priceless. You may have just saved a family member... And, thank you for serving...we're safer because of all of you...
I'm not remotely familiar with military tactics or the military in general. Watching you guys casually but clearly VERY deliberately clear room after room makes me wonder about the vast amount of forethought behind your movements, that I couldn't begin to understand. It's like watching a performance because...well, I guess in a sense it is. Your professionalism is inspiring, and you make me want to do my job better. Thanks for doing what you do and more importantly, for being so good at it.
I work security clearing empty units at night, sometimes solo or another guy with me. Definitely gonna be rehearsing what I just learned and mentoring it with my co workers. Thank you guys for the knowledge and how to keep yourself alive.
The part around 8:45 entering a corner-fed room, and being compromised before having a visual on the unknown corner, is 100% correct. I can confirm from my own force-on-force training, especially while being on the side of OPFOR, that this is a repeated error that in many ways is a result of rigid doctrine. There's another fatal scenario where the first man creates a corner fed situation when they enter a room with a door that opens towards the room (away from the entry man or team). Once the door is open, while there is decent vision into the door handle side, there is reduced vision into the door hinge side. A threat on the door hinge side, possibly behind the door, now has all the advantages, and can likely shoot through the door or at the first man as they make initial entry. This is complicated even more in military or law enforcement scenarios where the entry man or team don't know the internal room geometries, and interestingly it can also be a limitation to the high-speed "flow" of SOF doctrine. There are times when it is critical to slow down and anticipate unknowns like this. One other element, that the snap-shot method of initial scan is a game changer but requires a lot of practice to get proficient. It also requires the practitioner to have fairly good eyesight especially in low light, very sound weapon-handling skills (that are second nature at this point), well-practiced footwork and proprioception (especially spatial awareness), and frankly an inoculation to stress of a pending gunfight. People who enter a high stress situation and haven't been thoroughly trained and for lack of a better term, desensitized, will likely not have the broad, sharp vision required to make these techniques effective. Rather, they will be tunneled with a 180+ heart rate and missing key information.
Thank you, I needed this so much. I am teaching my kids how to peep corners and angles but I don’t want them in a combat scenario. I can’t explain how much this helps my life. Thank you.
@@Mrcuddlesworth_ lol, interesting comment. I did want more kids, wife does not. My son is said to have autism spectrum disorder soo.. yeah. The more people training the better tho
@@DBCooper81 he is 7, currently practicing executing shots at the same time taking out various targets, it’s quite exciting watching how quick he adapts. But the emotional problems are very difficult sometimes. But nothing in life worth having is easy. I hope everyone else is running as many drills as they can. Much love to everyone
I'd love to work at a retail shop where the boss said, "Every morning you show up 45 minutes early with a rifle. Your opening duties will include clearing the entire shop of baddies and balancing the register from last night." 🤣
I use to work for Brinks armored car service, and every morning you would wait for another guard to arrive then the 2 of you would clear the parking garage and the offices.
Watching you guys working is just awesome. Such a huge difference from a lot of folks putting out material. Also this is an incredibly important topic in today’s crazy fallen society.
A huge thank you from a very grateful civilian for all your guys' service to our country. Very grateful for all the knowledge sharing. Things are getting quite concerning as of late. Stay vigilant brothers and sisters. Also very grateful for the cross service knowledge sharing. God Bless America!! 🇺🇸
Fantastic. I just came back from my annual training where we are now implementing Active Shooter training and scenarios with single-officer response CQB tactics. Granted, I wish my instructors were of Mike Glovers caliber, but it was still similar in theory. Great video!
You should do a video where you tell stories of actually storming into rooms like this. Im curious how it actually works when the rounds start flying. DJ war stories are the bomb diggity
I think it's extremely important how Mike Glover is covering common sense tactical awareness. Some people have it naturally it's how they are wired, others need to be taught, usually with repetition before it becomes a normal way of thinking. Anyhow, very informative video filled with a ton of knowledge!
I wouldn’t make effort to say this to young people cause I wouldn’t want to encourage hobbies that aren’t productive....but it feels like practical common sense to me as well and when wondering about that....I kinda attribute it to playing video games years ago Whether I was moving in space supporting a team or moving through a structure of some sort solo; I feel like I’m aware of how to use the geometry to my advantage...or to limit risk I feel like a douche bag saying that and I def grew up around guns. But growing up around guns doesn’t explain moving practically while being aware of sight lines
Hearing those safeties snap on and off gives me goosebumps. I love the cross service action. I was in the Army in the late 80's, and 90's when Desert Storm kicked off and tactics started evolving almost on a daily basis. Knowing your home layout, where the POD's are, where squeaky stairs are... Gives you a huge advantage. That cold run was SICK. Shout out to all of you. Mike, I'm a fellow Utahn. DJ, I absolutely Love your dads work on stolen valor.
Great stuff for the home defender who can't stay in their "safe place" due to the need to protect family members in different parts of the house. Total respect for all special forces. I'm a retired vet of 22 years myself. Thank you for your service, guys!!
man all three of those operators are BADASS and what's was so cool about it DJ and Cole were like students eager to learn and that says a lot about there Professionalism because it's always room for improvement that's what Warriors do they never stop LEARNING!
I was also taught to scratch at your environment. Listening to what’s going on to gain information on your unknown threat. CBQ is also evolving, this is great stuff!!
@yvespenaflor4610 same I could care less about most Hollywood actors but some actual badass people that don't do badass stuff on camera but they do it in real life situations is way better. But I also would love to meet Keanu Reeves also
This is golden... Differs a bit from what they usually teach you at army CQB courses (they focus on a squad or at least four guys), but solid tactics that can be applied in a real scenario. Thanks! 👍
Opening clear was cool…had fun filming it…but that single-man stuff was…hilarious. Props to Cole & DJ…they acted like it was holy grail…but when they left, they were laughing all the way back to the hotel
Love these collaborations with GBRS. I found this to be extremely useful and will be practicing this to elevate my skill set thank you for the information guys much love keep it coming.
I want everyone to understand exactly how absurd this is. We’re watching Jordan, Kobe and LeBron go over high-precision, high-speed game plays in MJ’s private facility, and MJ is narrating every ball movement and decision-making moment. These three military professionals have demonstrated the ability to operate under immense pressure, in situations where every little decision could ultimately prove to be the most consequential of one’s life. And these three professionals are willingly sharing this invaluable wisdom with anyone willing to listen. It’s all quite humbling, and we should all feel fortunate that we’ve been given the opportunity to benefit from their years of experience and the wisdom accumulated during those years of operating at the highest level.
Beautiful work as usual. People do not practice retraction movement enough. Would like to see DJ, Cole and yourself on a cqb range from retracting and going from the sternum/hips to full extension running through different scenarios. Love the videos, keep up the good work gents!
At 2:00 watch the guy in the far right. Notice how he is slow but steady and never takes his eyes off the target. Puts his arm and hand out to feel his surroundings - knowing there’s an obstacle. I like seeing that. That’s how I move when in the woods or also walking backwards.
Only thing is so are the bad guys. The Internet and social media is so weird man. I bet criminals watch videos like this too. Now they get basic knowledge of how to shoot and how to handle a weapon the right way and how to move through a house.
@@jesseolson3142 the psychological mindset of the proverbial bad guy isn't commonly in line with preparedness in this sense. However, I do agree with you. Someone with bad intentions could learn this, but I personally counter that argument with putting myself as the bad guy or evil clone. He knows everything I know, so I must find a way to win. This is all information at our figure tips. Knowledge transfer doesn't truly take place unless someone has fundamental understandings of the why.
@@n8kilgore There has to be people watching. Like how can I pull off a robbery or assault and win if met with an armed victim. A guy about to do a home invasion would love this info because other side of the coin the home owner is not ready
@@jesseolson3142 I'm glad you're considering your potential adversary, but I wouldn't catastrophize more in this singular regard. There's plenty more variables to be considered. This is just a 20 minute video with great b role and A tactic discussed and demonstrated. Cqb is much more than what this video covers. Sure, you can learn a lot from UA-cam, but there's a reason these guys make a living teaching. The stuff they're sharing is just tip of the iceberg.
I love this channel and UF pro and of course Garand thumb. For someone who practices jiu jitsu daily, this fuels me to continue to learn more on and off the mat. Wishing that I have served when I was younger but never had a father figure to guide and provide me wisdom, seeing this helps me know there’s men out there who serve a higher purpose and have a high moral caliber. Thank you for this! Would love to know where to get this type of training!
So it really similar say to imagining going into a room with binoculars on. It takes a long ass time with that centered of vision to see the whole room. You use the binoculars when you know where you are supposed to look. You don’t go bird watching with the binoculars on your eyes the entire time. You find the bird first then put them on.
This was really great. It would be great to see a handgun version of this. I'm not sure how many people are sleeping next to a fully ready to roll rifle, but a handgun most likely would.
DJ has the soft, smooth voice of a person that could deliver an incredible monologue before killing the shit out of you. I don't know what I was expecting when he finally decided to talk, but, sure, "tank turret, it's nice." Hahahaha
Holy moly! Great video Mike! DJ Shipley in the house! Damn! DJ gave one of the most amazing, terrifying, phenomenal interviews with Shawn Ryan I have even seen!! Incredible!
Absolutely awesome video. And that B-roll footage....that was just cool to watch. I was curious how 1 man clearing was going to go as I've always been taught the blow through method. But I like this, it's still a blow through method but a lot safer in getting to where you want to go. 👍
I hope they (gbrs) have a patent pending on their optic/ir mount design. Everybody and their mom is gonna copy that shit. Frankly, it’s amazing that a mount that doesn’t compromise the optimal grip of a carbine has taken this long to come out. Good shit, guys!
9:5211:08 *HOPEFULLY SOMEONE w/TAC KNOWLEDGE CAN EDUCATE ME ON THIS??* I have noticed in multiple vids that they always be gun on safe, flip to hot as the cross threshold & go back to safe, I see sometimes they keep their finger on the trigger when safe & hot. -Do they always keep finger on trigger when safe & hot? -These are training vids, but on "target", do they always flip safe/fire in each room? -Is it only when who need to collapse & snap ur gun back to ur shoulder, like Cole did 11:08 ?? I always thought it was keep on fire, off trigger from the entering of frt door til the whole house/bldg cleared.
The basic gist of it is: Sights on : Safety off Sights off : Safety on Basically when they are moving and not engaging threats their safety is on. When they are clearing and engaging, the safety is off.
@@zatoby6705 OK, sounds completely logical, I thought since they are so highly trained & proficient w/muzzle awareness & trigger control, they would go saftey off when going thru the frt door on CQB & safety on when exiting. Thx for education.
Really digging the cross service knowledge transfer. No egos, still learning new stuff at their level. Thx from a civilian.
U said it man no ego is the key to truly LEARNING
couldnt of said it better myself, love these guys, learned so much with so much more to go.

@@adtemporary69 we are better off not giving them that. The atf, cia, and other agencies have these guys. Let’s level the plain field. Because with the amount of training I got I’m still limited. The government has weapons, money and complete sanctions to kill and destroy. So if you are ex combat and you work for the government, you are an automatic traitor.

We never rise to the level of our expectations, we fall to the level of our training.
On my 1st deployment in Summer 2006 to Iraq at height of highly kinetic deployments we had to fight through complex ambush into large 3 story abandoned Government building with 8 man section since we had casulty collection point in court yard waiting on QRF. Another patrol was hit also about 2Ks away. So alot of people being stepped on company net. We knew points of donination etc etc. We had a SEAL plt we also trained with at our COP so we where efficient and confident but all that combat stride smooth clear turned into a trigger raping kill everything in that room when 1 guy swung an AK and blind fired into the room. We had a SAW gunner keep fire superiority and just tossed every frag we had. Then did Recon by fire. I was just a Marine Grunt but after we went back and talked about to a couple SEAL plt guys they said you will fall to your lowest level of training at a situation that close most of times
This is the truest statement ever, once that first zip passes by everything goes out the window and body mechanics kicks in, that's why I have always emphasized on training, so muscle memory kicks in. It should be as natural as breathing, because there is no 3rd place in battle.

So Bad Ass gents.
Hey mate, just be careful about speaking on your military experience online. A lot of hackers from places like China and Russia are really going hard on trying to infiltrate Western militaries, and it starts by identifying individual soldiers like you, finding out your identity, and then using concentrated methods to get digital info that would let them hack the broader military and government using your devices and by also impersonating you to gain access.
How was it in real life?
That cold run in the beginning was so sick to watch. Also like I think a few other guys have said, it’s cool to see cross service training being shown where top tier operators kind of just show different scenarios and give different solutions. Super cool video
There was a critical error at the top of the stairs during break off that could've easily ended up with a congested realignment where you'd be firing through your teammate. Of course your teammate would be taking fire while you're safely behind him like a lame duck, but same difference.
i'd watch videos of the three of them just clearing random houses or rooms
@@darrellbarfz8666 That was the end of it. They were not continuing to clear. Not much of an Error
quietly terrifying
It's like watching a well choreographed dance. Holy cow. Don't know much about this type of CQB as a civilian, but it was epic. So much detail in movement and positioning to clear all the areas. Thank you for showing us this.
The kind of time it takes to get this good is insane. It's literally just countless days all day, live fires hitting notecards on bad guys. Miss the card, fail and after hours practice for that mistake. And watch this again, you see any hand signals or talking? Nobody tripped up, confused about who does what, or went at the same time at choke points. Repetition and scenario training to the point eye contact and muscle memory, its like riding a bike. Could you imagine a few dozen of these kind of dudes hunting you, with the full backing and resources of the us military and our govt? Nightmare fuel.
Even as a civilian videos like this help a lot. Most likely scenario where I’d be in a firefight is not assaulting a building with 3-4 buddies. It’s someone is in my house and I have to get rid of them effectively. Watching videos isn’t a replacement for actual professional training, but this kind of knowledge can give us civilians an edge in a home invasion type thing and is super accessible. Thanks y’all.
IN REAL SPEAK! US AMERICANS ARE SECURITY CONSCIOUS. YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO DEFEND YOURSELF. I DON'T OWN GUNS. IF OTHER PEOPLE HAVE GUNS THAT'S FINE. I ALWAYS BELIEVE PEOPLE KILL PEOPLE, NOT GUNS.

Yup eyes and ears open, mouths shut.
I've been really stoked seeing you guys all work together on these training videos! Like many of us, I'm a civilian who literally grew up in the woods with a BB gun in my hand, so having a weapon in my hand is very natural. I've always had a strong sense of self preparedness, and self reliance. With all the tragic events unfolding in the world at a very rapid rate now, I've been trying to learn a few pointers on real world tactics. I think this knowledge transfer is essential to our survival. Especially during this pivotal time! Seriously, thanks to you guys for doing these videos!!
DJ's movement is crispy, what a dangerous man, im glad he's on our side.
How does DJ Shipley manage to come off as incredibly intimidating and imposing, and simultaneously humble and meek? Deadly combo.
Totally agree! Super cool dude.
Its because he's a POS that calls the police and makes false accusations.

Amazing humility and grace to see elite warriors still allowing knowledge transfer and learning regardless wether they agree or not. DJ’s nod to Mike to see if that entry was acceptable was awesome. They’ve done more and forgot more real life war fighting than 99% will ever learn.
I Dig the way Cole launches 🚀 Left into the room, READY TO KILL, after DJ’s cautious entry Right. Great 👍🏻 clip.
This was seriously one of the best “real world” tactical videos for civilians I have seen. Well done!
As an SRO/ SWAT operator, I know that I might be the only armed person in a school in the event of an active shooter. I’m always looking to become better and this one person CQB definitely helps. This is the first time I watch one of your videos. Good content gentleman
Hopefully someday soon you won't have to worry about facing an active shooter alone as our schools will be protected by multiple armed good guys.
I love that Cole is a Southpaw to show their perspective of CQB tactics. Although I'm right dominant and trained ambidextrous, it's still important to show all techniques from various perspectives. 👍🏽
Really learning these little moves, proper low-readys and collapsed positions will indeed save your life. Former SF and still here because of them.
I'm team Cole all the way being a lefty myself. I admire the way at 11:25 he decided to enter room and go left instead of making it easier on himself by going right. Love the shared knowledge Mike. Keep it up!
Same, I'm right dominate but play sports left and shoit left
I've really noticed the production quality going way up recently and the information is always top notch. Thanks to all involved in making this.
There’s something about DJ’s Lethalness in Legitimately every single aspect of what he does that has me in awe.
Bwahaha!!
CQB of the highest level with one of the best prepared guys in the world where he is taught only in the most badass courses available for free. In a group like this I had not yet seen. Very instructive!
Something that really stood out to me, that I try to explain to people who have never really been around guns. First rule of firearms is to treat them like they are always loaded. Here we have three guys who are at the pinnacle of professionalism and ability when it comes to firearms. They even confirm at the beginning that their weapons are clear. Even still, when they are about to show a full clear of the room, they all get out so they are not swept by the guy demonstrating the clear.

@@mr_niceman everybody knows cameramen are invincible
@@fukkenubermann Expendable actually.

@@MickAngelhere Good habit sir👍👍
14:00 I like to see "mistakes". I learned more from my mistakes on how to recover from those mistakes when considering solutions where some are better than others, though they all may work. People will freeze or waste time trying to understand what went wrong if they have only seen the "right way" with no errors introduced. And I am talking about software applications! An expert is someone who has made all the mistakes...and learned from them. Paraphrased from author unknown.
As a 22 year LEO, this transfer of knowledge is invaluable. I’d love to see more of these demonstrations utilizing pistols, as that’s my primary weapon system when room clearing / CQB.
@Fourgotten I'm not an expert at all, so please note that with my reply and take all of this with a grain of salt, but I imagine there is a TREMENDOUS difference in effect on a target between a 9x19mm Luger slug at 1,400 FPS and a 5.56x45mm NATO at 3,260 FPS. Something like 3 TIMES energy foot pounds greater force for the latter. There's a reason our troops weren't running around with their M9s out all day in combat instead of their M4 etc. Nevermind range, accuracy, and magazine capacity.
@Fourgotten you must not watch Garand Thumb lol
@Fourgotten nope velocity matters. Pistols are harder to master than rifles and there's a reason a lot of people train 5 rounds in the a zone. You never know what someone is doped up on and may need to put several rounds on target. Until the threat is removed
@FourgottenNot an expert either, seen some videos that seem credible. If your not familiar with it, look up hydrostatic shock. Active Self Protection has a lot of videos where center mass hits with a pistol doesn't drop someone quickly. There is one in particular that comes to mind where police drop a guy instantly with a rifle due to the hydrostatic shock, and he comments on this.
In short, hydrostatic shock is transfer of energy by liquids. A bullet moving above 2,000 feet per second has a different effect on the body than one moving around ,1400, enough so that the hydrostatic shock can disrupt the central nervous system and drop the target instantly, if temporarily, without having to hit it directly.
Mike has done a video on single man CQB using a sidearm.
Personally, as a now civilian, I too am more than likely using a sidearm as well, however its the exact same concepts rifle vs sidearm, the difference is weapons manipulation, which you have tons more of using a rifle vs sidearm.
As a LEO I'm curios why you wouldnt have a rifle or shotgun if youre going into an environment where youd have to be doing a house clearing.
You're better served having both, weapons jam, fail, and at times rendered inoperable.
I'm sure there are reasons as a LEO, not being one, I am curious why this isnt an option for you.
As someone who is a LEO, I found this video very informative. Lots of useful insight, especially the concept of always having a firing solution and eliminating unnecessary movement.
I love how DJ is so humble with learning other techniques from other experienced operators. Especially with all his level of experience.
His knowledge of USPS shipping isn't very good though.

3 professionals from different backgrounds and training coming together as teachers. True badassess.
As one of the LE guys watching, I really like the way you move past the open door. In addition to the advantages you gave, it also puts your body armor square to any potential threat. Less chance of taking a round under the arm where body armor doesn't cover. Love the training! Thanks!
Always the first thing that comes to my mind when walking through a doorway or clearing an area like that is keeping my chest facing the direction of the possible threat same thing with approaching a front door and an unknown situation try to always have somewhat of a covering if possible but never sideways always chest facing direction to make sure I have the most protection possible Little things like that he shows in the video really could be the difference between life or death. Stay safe. 🇺🇸
Armor or not, we should be square to threats. Never give the bad guy a double lung shot. Game over. Ask any hunter.

@@JohnSmith-nf8bi There are so many things that are "common sense" that are built on nuances most people don't even realize they are doing. Common sense is more "common experience".

Never get tired of watching how these special forces guys move. Its like water. That B roll building clear in the beginning gave me goosebumps. Every single step so well rehearsed and thought out.
As a civilian I've made CQB training course in Virginia and I didn't learn this tip skill `till now. Thanks guys! That's usefull technique.
Awesome seeing such knowledgable dudes in their craft still having the capacity/wanting to learn. True operator mindset.

Firing from the retracted position reminds me of Ken Hackethorn's story about talking with WWII veterans who used Thompsons and would point shoot in close quarters distances from a very similar position (stock tucked under the arm)
I have been praying for the last week for the start of this type of training. Thank you for your diligence not only in training but in putting this together. You are the answer to prayers.
Having done CQB many years ago w/ Fed LE, the level of detail in instruction here, from some of our best, is 2nd to none.

I'm not remotely familiar with military tactics or the military in general.

Thank you guys for the knowledge and how to keep yourself alive.
The part around 8:45 entering a corner-fed room, and being compromised before having a visual on the unknown corner, is 100% correct. I can confirm from my own force-on-force training, especially while being on the side of OPFOR, that this is a repeated error that in many ways is a result of rigid doctrine.
There's another fatal scenario where the first man creates a corner fed situation when they enter a room with a door that opens towards the room (away from the entry man or team). Once the door is open, while there is decent vision into the door handle side, there is reduced vision into the door hinge side. A threat on the door hinge side, possibly behind the door, now has all the advantages, and can likely shoot through the door or at the first man as they make initial entry. This is complicated even more in military or law enforcement scenarios where the entry man or team don't know the internal room geometries, and interestingly it can also be a limitation to the high-speed "flow" of SOF doctrine. There are times when it is critical to slow down and anticipate unknowns like this.
One other element, that the snap-shot method of initial scan is a game changer but requires a lot of practice to get proficient. It also requires the practitioner to have fairly good eyesight especially in low light, very sound weapon-handling skills (that are second nature at this point), well-practiced footwork and proprioception (especially spatial awareness), and frankly an inoculation to stress of a pending gunfight. People who enter a high stress situation and haven't been thoroughly trained and for lack of a better term, desensitized, will likely not have the broad, sharp vision required to make these techniques effective. Rather, they will be tunneled with a 180+ heart rate and missing key information.

Stay safe out there! Thanks for your service!
You should do a video where you tell stories of actually storming into rooms like this. Im curious how it actually works when the rounds start flying. DJ war stories are the bomb diggity
I think it's extremely important how Mike Glover is covering common sense tactical awareness. Some people have it naturally it's how they are wired, others need to be taught, usually with repetition before it becomes a normal way of thinking. Anyhow, very informative video filled with a ton of knowledge!
I wouldn’t make effort to say this to young people cause I wouldn’t want to encourage hobbies that aren’t productive....but it feels like practical common sense to me as well and when wondering about that....I kinda attribute it to playing video games years ago
Whether I was moving in space supporting a team or moving through a structure of some sort solo; I feel like I’m aware of how to use the geometry to my advantage...or to limit risk
I feel like a douche bag saying that and I def grew up around guns. But growing up around guns doesn’t explain moving practically while being aware of sight lines

I want everyone to understand exactly how absurd this is. We’re watching Jordan, Kobe and LeBron go over high-precision, high-speed game plays in MJ’s private facility, and MJ is narrating every ball movement and decision-making moment. These three military professionals have demonstrated the ability to operate under immense pressure, in situations where every little decision could ultimately prove to be the most consequential of one’s life. And these three professionals are willingly sharing this invaluable wisdom with anyone willing to listen. It’s all quite humbling, and we should all feel fortunate that we’ve been given the opportunity to benefit from their years of experience and the wisdom accumulated during those years of operating at the highest level.
This man gets it. More so than being fortunate this is an absolute privilege.
Absolutely
Quite literally. This is invaluable.
For free.
Beautiful work as usual. People do not practice retraction movement enough. Would like to see DJ, Cole and yourself on a cqb range from retracting and going from the sternum/hips to full extension running through different scenarios. Love the videos, keep up the good work gents!
Helmet cams in a kill house with these guys would be incredible!
At 2:00 watch the guy in the far right. Notice how he is slow but steady and never takes his eyes off the target. Puts his arm and hand out to feel his surroundings - knowing there’s an obstacle.
I like seeing that. That’s how I move when in the woods or also walking backwards.
Excellent instruction here. I’m learning a lot from you guys. Thank you
Only thing is so are the bad guys. The Internet and social media is so weird man. I bet criminals watch videos like this too. Now they get basic knowledge of how to shoot and how to handle a weapon the right way and how to move through a house.
@@jesseolson3142 the psychological mindset of the proverbial bad guy isn't commonly in line with preparedness in this sense. However, I do agree with you. Someone with bad intentions could learn this, but I personally counter that argument with putting myself as the bad guy or evil clone. He knows everything I know, so I must find a way to win. This is all information at our figure tips. Knowledge transfer doesn't truly take place unless someone has fundamental understandings of the why.
@@n8kilgore There has to be people watching. Like how can I pull off a robbery or assault and win if met with an armed victim. A guy about to do a home invasion would love this info because other side of the coin the home owner is not ready
@@jesseolson3142 I'm glad you're considering your potential adversary, but I wouldn't catastrophize more in this singular regard. There's plenty more variables to be considered. This is just a 20 minute video with great b role and A tactic discussed and demonstrated. Cqb is much more than what this video covers. Sure, you can learn a lot from UA-cam, but there's a reason these guys make a living teaching. The stuff they're sharing is just tip of the iceberg.
Wow...never even considered some of these tactics. Thanks for the tutorials. Now need to practice them.
I love this channel and UF pro and of course Garand thumb. For someone who practices jiu jitsu daily, this fuels me to continue to learn more on and off the mat. Wishing that I have served when I was younger but never had a father figure to guide and provide me wisdom, seeing this helps me know there’s men out there who serve a higher purpose and have a high moral caliber. Thank you for this! Would love to know where to get this type of training!
So it really similar say to imagining going into a room with binoculars on. It takes a long ass time with that centered of vision to see the whole room. You use the binoculars when you know where you are supposed to look. You don’t go bird watching with the binoculars on your eyes the entire time. You find the bird first then put them on.
It has been 25 years since the military and this is so motivating. Thank you.
This was really great.
It would be great to see a handgun version of this. I'm not sure how many people are sleeping next to a fully ready to roll rifle, but a handgun most likely would.
I mean, wouldn’t it be exactly the same only you pull the pistol into your side/chest when moving through the doorway?
This is UNREAL. This cross stuff with GBRS has been AWESOME 👍🏼
DJ has the soft, smooth voice of a person that could deliver an incredible monologue before killing the shit out of you. I don't know what I was expecting when he finally decided to talk, but, sure, "tank turret, it's nice." Hahahaha
Holy moly! Great video Mike!
DJ Shipley in the house! Damn!
DJ gave one of the most amazing, terrifying, phenomenal interviews with Shawn Ryan I have even seen!!
Incredible!
Absolutely awesome video. And that B-roll footage....that was just cool to watch. I was curious how 1 man clearing was going to go as I've always been taught the blow through method. But I like this, it's still a blow through method but a lot safer in getting to where you want to go. 👍
I hope they (gbrs) have a patent pending on their optic/ir mount design. Everybody and their mom is gonna copy that shit. Frankly, it’s amazing that a mount that doesn’t compromise the optimal grip of a carbine has taken this long to come out. Good shit, guys!
@Grant oh shit! Idk. Care to elaborate?
9:52 11:08 *HOPEFULLY SOMEONE w/TAC KNOWLEDGE CAN EDUCATE ME ON THIS??* I have noticed in multiple vids that they always be gun on safe, flip to hot as the cross threshold & go back to safe, I see sometimes they keep their finger on the trigger when safe & hot.
-Do they always keep finger on trigger when safe & hot?
-These are training vids, but on "target", do they always flip safe/fire in each room?
-Is it only when who need to collapse & snap ur gun back to ur shoulder, like Cole did 11:08 ??
I always thought it was keep on fire, off trigger from the entering of frt door til the whole house/bldg cleared.
The basic gist of it is:
Sights on : Safety off
Sights off : Safety on
Basically when they are moving and not engaging threats their safety is on. When they are clearing and engaging, the safety is off.
@@zatoby6705 OK, sounds completely logical, I thought since they are so highly trained & proficient w/muzzle awareness & trigger control, they would go saftey off when going thru the frt door on CQB & safety on when exiting. Thx for education.
