Blind Fire

Sticking a gun around a doorway or over a wall and firing without visual confirmation of what's downrange is tactically tempting in CQB but raises real safety concerns: a blind shooter can't see whether a marshal, a civilian bystander prop, or a teammate is in the line of fire.

Many CQB and structured fields restrict or ban blind fire outright as part of their safety rules, requiring at minimum a partial sighted view before firing, precisely because unsighted shots are one of the more common sources of legitimate safety incidents and disputed hit calls near close corners.

A related habit worth building deliberately is always identifying a backstop before firing in any direction, blind or sighted, since knowing what's actually behind a target matters just as much as knowing what the target itself is.
