I've played indoors with some fairly long weapons, M16 length+, and all you have to do is either lower your weapon into a low ready and move up to the wall for cover, and to fire take a step back as you raise the weapon into the high ready.
Though if you're in a situation when you're expecting to be in CQB for a long time... maybe leave the long weapon at home.

The tuck under the armpit is used by some real trainers for real firearms, I believe Frontsight comes to mind as one place that teaches that method. The recoil on a real firearm is not so uncontrollable that at <10 feet you must have your weapon shouldered to hit your target.
Tip for tucking your rifle as you enter a confined space, wrap your off hand around your handguard near your front sight with your index finger pointed down the barrel. Simply point at your target to engage effectively. In fact, I use this with my weapon shouldered as well. Keep your front sight in view and even if you don't have time to properly sight down your weapon, at CQB ranges you can still quickly engage targets.
