well, that's why I said both parties are right. Sadly, I spent some time behind a gun, nothing I'm proud of for reasons I won't comment.
You're right on that you don't NEED to present your full body, but it happens most of the time, hence you're trained not to do that in combat. Besides, in the army most of the times you'll fire with long weapons, not handguns, you'll use handguns mostly in training, mainly for urban combat. I agree with the police situations, and if you read what I wrote before, you'll see the possible situations where you'll be able to use 2 hands shooting will happen mostly in police duty (or feds or anything else than army).
