I am not a soldier, but I feel that it would not work for most guns. If you are using the M4 (the only gun I am aware of that has the flip down trigger guard), then it would work. However, the trigger guard on most guns will prevent the user from getting the finger on the trigger quickly, firing several shots quickly, and taking it away quickly. It is just too bulky to fit. Hope this helps!!
