While discussing the chicken choker you might also try the reverse chicken choker...

Palm on top of the forend with the thumb up (Basicly make the letter C with your left hand). For CQB and entries it gave me maximum control over the gun and is extremely solid if using a full auto application. Instead of the muzzle trying to rise up against just the force of your thumb its trying to rise up through your entire hand.

By mounting a TLR at the 6 oclock you can activate the rocker switch with your thumb regardless of how you position your hand and your not locking yourself into a single technique that is limited due to the position of your light.


Hunt hard, kill clean, waste nothing and offer no apologies.
