Gotta fix that chick lean.

Spread your legs more. They're very close together. Hunch your back a bit, and bend your legs a bit at the knees. That'll let you lean into the rifle more. You're leaning because your legs are so close together you have to lean back to counteract the weight of the rifle.

>>30662619
This. You won't necessarily naturally fall into a good stance, you might have to think about it at first, reposition, practice, etc. Regardless of comfort level, that lean is interfering with your aim. Think of it in raw force and motion:

If you want to prop something somewhere, you lean your stick or whatever forward against it. This directs the forces in advenageous directions, and perhaps more importantly, inherently stable directions. To explain inherent stability, think about trying to push a scooter the wrong way, or backing up with a trailer. The forces are directed such that the bigger the error in position, the more significant the force making the error worse is. This is inherent instability. Conversely, when towing a trailer or pulling a scooter forward, if the back is kicked out it will want to recenter itself, and how far out it is will magnify how much it wants to recenter itself. This is why it is easy to pull a trailer but not so much to reverse with one. You are doing the shooting version of reversing with the trailer, leading the reactive force of firing to push you off of rather than on to balance.

Chick lean directs recoil to push the lot of you back over your heel instead of (an unstable position) instead of down into your feet (a stable position).

tl;dr: shoot leaning in for the same reason you'd rather pull a trailer than back up with one.

addendum: it also makes you look very inexperienced, and continuing to do it after someone corrects you will make you look like you think you know better than those more experienced than you and thus are
A) an idiot
B) an asshole

In shooting, like any hobby, people with more experience are generally inclined to try to help. It feels good, and we like introducing others to things we enjoy. In the name of not being a douche and the name of Isaac Newton, please try leaning forward

I have original wood furniture on my bulgarian parts kit AK74. Everything gets hot and stays hot on that rifle. I still don't wear gloves when at the range.

I only wore gloves when I was in Iraq. Not for any sort of shooting purposes. Just because I had to touch a bunch of awful shit all day.

You fucks never obviously never shot a C308 or PTR before

Nah, the first run was with problems. Newer run has been a ton better. BRG is mad a PTR/C308 costs half what one of their FAL garage clones cost and shoot even better than their FAiL with watermelon paintjobs.

>but muh phyric victory

>>30662817
Kek. Yeah the FAL fags all brag about their 3k rifle but shoot nothing but zero quality inspection walmart grade ammo. Those garage fals dont like anything over 149 grain and anything under is likely to fail to cycle.

Ya got me in a box here, man.

I'll take 'Adjustable Gas Systems' for $400, Alex.

I'll agree that /brg/ gets elitist about FALs, though that's mostly just the resident trip. Having shot both a C308 and a PTR, I can say that both are actually pretty damn good, and their prices are definitely better for someone looking for a first BR.

Also, a garage gun is like less than $1K to DIY, and even the better DSAs tend to hover around $2,000. Three grand is SCAR territory, friend.

tl;dr 7/8 b8, made me reply seriously.

When I was in basic they'd let us charge our rifles time and time again in freezing weather until our fingers bruised and bled to get our hands roughed up
