DIY Urban Rifle Training

I haven't been able to attend any Urban Rifle courses. My last traing in this was in the USAF, many years ago. So, this is what I have hit upon. It may work for you, and I'd appreciate any comments/criticisms on my tactics.

What I've done is run my Defensive Pistol drills, only with a rifle/shotgun.

Example:

If you practice the speed rock at 3 yards, try bringing the long gun up from low-ready to a kind of point-shooting position.

Most of my pistol drills are run at 3, 5, 7, 10, and 15 yards, with occasional 25 and 50 practice. When I run the drills with a long gun, I do the same exercises, i.e.: weak hand, one-handed, multiple-target, etc. I also practice at longer ranges with the rifle.

I've run these exercises with AR15, lever guns, SKS, and pistol caliber carbines.

My theory is if used at handgun ranges (like most urban gunfights will be), then why not use the same basic drills?
