The center axis relock (CAR) system is a revolutionary firearms technique that was developed by Paul Castle, a highly respected firearms instructor with extensive Law Enforcement and self-defense experience. This system has gained immense popularity and recognition for its adaptability, efficiency, and effectiveness in various tactical and defensive shooting scenarios.
At its core, the CAR system employs a unique and ergonomic shooting stance that maximizes both control and accuracy. By bringing the firearm closer to the body and adopting a bladed stance, CAR allows shooters to maintain a natural point of aim, ensuring rapid target acquisition and enhanced shooting precision. This method also facilitates faster transitions between targets, making it particularly suited for close-quarters combat situations where speed and accuracy are of the essence.
Key Benefits of the C.A.R System:
1. **Enhanced Control**: The CAR system provides shooters with a stable and well-balanced platform, reducing recoil and allowing for more controlled and accurate shots.
2. **Improved Target Acquisition**: C.A.R's intuitive stance and shooting posture enable shooters to acquire targets swiftly and maintain situational awareness in dynamic environments.
3. **Versatility**: This technique is adaptable to various shooting scenarios, making it suitable for both Law Enforcement professionals and civilians concerned with personal defense.
4. **Reduced Exposure**: The C.A.R system minimizes the shooter's profile, making them a smaller target and enhancing their chances of survival in a defensive situation.
5. **Efficiency Under Stress**: C.A.R's simplicity and efficiency shine in high-stress situations, ensuring that shooters can perform effectively when it matters most.
6. **Increased Speed**: Faster target transitions and more efficient shooting movements enable shooters to engage multiple threats rapidly and decisively.
