What is Tactical Stance in MW3?
Tactical Stance in Modern Warfare 3 is a new mechanic that has been introduced to improve your mobility while aiming down sight or firing from the hip.
Rather than aiming down the sight fully, you can hold the weapon at a slanted angle so you still have a pretty open vision while you’re firing. Think of it as a middle ground between ADS and hip firing.
While it may seem like a small addition, having this level of control while aiming can improve your mobility and reduce your chances of being caught in a hellfire of bullets.
