CQB For Civilians: Valuable Skill or Tactical LARPing?
Today we’re diving into one of the more heated debates in the firearms and training community — Should civilians be training in CQB? Close Quarters Battle. Is it a useful skill, a fantasy-driven distraction, or something in between? If you’ve spent time in the training world, you’ve probably heard both extremes: "Civilians have no business learning room clearing" — or — "CQB is essential to defending your home and loved ones." So which is it?
I’ll lay out both sides of the argument, share my own view, and maybe challenge a few assumptions along the way. Whether you’re military, law enforcement, or a civilian shooter, there’s something in here for you.
