   This will prevent John from being shot and it will allow him to restore his health.
   
   You can also shoot from cover by using the Aim button and firing.
   
   Another method is to just press the fire( R2 /RT) button, this will allow no damage done to John but it will decrease the Accuracy of the weapon. , Firing on the move is more difficult because you have less time to take aim and enemies will be moving and they're more likely to dodge your gunfire.
