That's my point...Wolfguard wrote:"Goguaspy": well if you got face-to-face with an opponent in the same standing stance, and you had to dive down first before you would/could fire, the opposite guy would most likely win.
If you were already lying down and the opponent entered the room in a standing stance, you would most likely win, because you're a much smaller target in a lower position than he would have expected. The short second his brain would need to realize you were in a prone posture, it would be too late.
Besides, soldiers may not do it in a CQB situation in the real world, but if they needed to do so, they would be perfectly able to it in an instant.
