Full HD version here. To me it looks like a close protection training package and damn it... These Israeli shooting techniques are driving me crazy. The most of the guys we see in exercise videos are using the wide spread western methods but these guys and the guys in the official OKK videos are using the Israeli methods (that I hate). I think that is a problem. It speaks of lack of standardization in teaching of advanced shooting techniques or the personnel going to the western methods just because they don't like the Israeli ones.

The difference between the two methods are major. Firstly the drawing technique is less practical and slower with the Israeli method. Apart from the wide stance secondly and most importantly is the carry. According to the Israeli method one should carry his sidearm in condition 3 level which means magazine loaded, safety off, empty chamber which means considerably slower draw compared to the standard condition 1 carry.


EDIT: The official video from the General Staff channel got deleted...

Say NO to this!

Perhaps they should use Colt 45 in that position.

Video from the oath. Very interesting and exceptional fact is that one Libyan soldier was trained and given the Special Forces Specialization Course and was honored with the Special Forces badge and maroon beret.

if they are OKK shouldn't their face be blurred or is that not the norm anymore?

AA shared the picture that way. In multiple occasions also content coming by the MoD is shared that way. I personally don't like that policy but I shared the picture as it is.
