Use Hip Fire to Win Close Combats
Hip Shooting is basically shooting without looking down a gun's scope or sights. At short range, it is very effective capable of bringing down enemies in a few seconds.
Hip Fire Allows You to Shoot Quickly
You can dish out damage quicker compared to having to look down scopes with this technique. It's best used when an enemy suddenly shows up near you!
Works Best with Close Range Weapons
There's a reason why scoped weapons are for long ranges! Use close ranged weapons with the hip technique as you don't need to use sights or scopes to be able to land shots.
