      👋I'm a relatively new member -- I have a request.
      I've had to in comment explain the GTFOM knife techniques, why and when to do things. Such as he's going to get your gun also, you just keep it holstered and back him off with the blade. *_Buys you distance which is time._*
      Yea, the commenting back and forth was a lot longer than that 😂He had questions, I had answers. A lot of back and forth. I could not find a concise video on it, shortest one was over 30min long and the first part was just him showing off his blades (had to give the dude the time stamp on where to start watching about techniques of the off-hand poke or stroke). That would go well with this vid.

      BTW I'm partially disabled and CANNOT move like I used to. Lower back and neck spine crap (relearned to walk twice) . It's why I've retrained my brain of what I do when with what and why. Including using the back up off-hand dropping the knife.

    Worst thing you can do is barrel stuff your target with a semi auto. The gun will fire once and then malfunction guaranteed since the slide is obstructed by the person's body. This is why some people call snub revolvers "get off me" guns. You can fire your entire cylinder in hand to hand combat and no malfunctions will occur from the front of the gun.

    • @tomarmstrong4761
      @tomarmstrong4761 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      On the ammo point: I see (and can't argue against) the suggestion to use frangible for EDC. The downside of frangible rounds is lack of penetration through, for example, a leather coat worn by the attacker. Even so, the impact would (I expect) slow the attacker down some, giving me a sliver of time to back away and aim for uncovered body parts.
      My current EDC ammo is sub-sonic Hornady hollow point, but I have some frangible rounds and can get more.

    I’ve got many years in the private sector plus army infantry background. The common draw method in close quarters with an attacker is to shoulder them with your offhand side to keep your holster as far from their reach as possible while you draw. You can use your offhand arm to either protect your head and neck or to shove/control the attacker as you draw depending on the situation. Things like attempting to grab the arm wielding a weapon to redirect it, grabbing the attacker’s neck, or eye gouging the attacker as you draw are considerations

  • @CutlassOutdoors
    @CutlassOutdoors ปีที่แล้ว +48

    He's tilting the gun up when he draws it, which is fine, but here's the way I've always done this drill: Draw and hold from retention like he is (angled away from the body to avoid malfunctions), but without tilting the gun up. Fire two shots into the pelvis. Then push the gun half way out while stepping back and creating distance. Point shoot two shots center mass. Continue backing and pushing the gun out until you reach full extension on the gun. Fire a final shot into the head. 5 shot drill, 3 second par time (or better). This drill is dangerous, so practice with airsoft until you are proficient before using live fire. Be sure to keep that support hand pinned to your chest or the back of your head, so you don't accidentally shoot yourself.
    The reason I start at the pelvis is that it can create catastrophic damage to the skeletal structure that physically prevents the attacker from following your retreat, even if they are hyped up on adrenaline or drugs. A gut shot is less likely to do that.
    Anyway, I love this technique and you guys did a great job of explaining it.

      I was trained similarly, locking the weapon into the hip using the hip to steady aim. Instead of pulling up, you would tilt the grip backward, clearing the barrel from the holster while stiff arming the opponent.
      If you need space but lack room to backup or circle away, you can roll onto your back and kick out with your legs, creating space.

      Agreed. And I get it if you're a secret agent or Navy SeAL or whatever, however, this scenario or situation seems like you're basically unloading on an unarmed person, lol. How 'bout just using the elbow or straight arm to push-off or defend, then back away or turn around and run? I'm not sure I would EVER pull a piece unless my life or limb depended solely on it. Hence the phrase, "I feared for my life" will be your best friend and best bet.

    I agree with all of this there saying. Because they are absolutely correct. The only issue now a days. Criminal are carrying guns also. I was always told never to draw from the drop. If a criminal has the drop on you. You have to find a way to conceal your draw. Basically, you have to pray they don't shoot you and wait for your turn if they already have the drop on you.
    Even as a martial artist over 35 years. And fighter. Space is the enemy unless I create it. There, for a yes, a person being within your range can be good or bad depending on the situation. Or if I was the one to minimize or close distance. I'm speaking from a tactical close quarter combat perspective.
    Each situation causes different applications and tactics. But I agree with the great video.

    well the other reason for the tilt is to avoid getting clothing caught as well as slide hitting the body and causing a malfunction. Circumstances determine method used and what is practical. Distance is your friend, target and beyond as you are responsible for every shot fired. Your a hundred % correct there Training is key which is why constitutional carry can be a problem when people don't seek proper training.

    At the 3:15+ mark, you specify clearing, etc in preparing to draw. Why not disguise by going into martial arts stance, weapon side back, with arms in action like you are moving to a defensive stance ? That way, with one simple move you can draw the gun as far back as the back hip and go into action from there.

    Good points on ammo selection. In a crowded urban environment, that round can do a lot of unintended damage. Everyone these days is so stuck on “FBI minimum penetration” in gel. I can personally testify that something like a 124-grain HST can go right through the brick exterior wall of an apartment building. Seeing a bunch of brick walls behind your target doesn’t mean the backstop is safe.

    Good info. Don’t forget folks once you push away and if you’re able to create distance or can continue to create distance now you have to decide in a flash if you now created a scenario where you’re able to get away and deadly force is no longer needed if it was in the first place. The bitter sweet truth is even though you’re state allows you to carry you’re almost always in the wrong to actually fire or at least that’s how you should look at it(check your laws). These things are taught in your training classes. So get that training folks.

  • @buddymoore1543
    @buddymoore1543 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I liked what I saw here. Yes I'm going to give you feedback...Incidentally I just spent the last two days looking over the mCMAP manual and the Army combative Manual because I am a life long MA student and might soon be working on a video series of my own,, which I might entitle" I am NOT a Navy Seal" to contrast with the pile of stuff from people claiming this sheerly because I have known SEALs who were good friends and I know that was a no-no at least once upon a time. I'm not even a Soldier, and yes I'm giving you feedback.
    I love that you used and promoted an Air Soft Pistol for training drills. These are excellent tools designed for exactly that in addition to the sport. Most of the full metal gas blow back versions are way better than training with Blue Guns or plastic replicas because you're going to get sweaty hands and cut your hands on the sights and slip and get bit by the port and all of that and you can lock the follower in most of these and use them in a kind of blank fire mode. they have very light triggers though. Another alternative that has turned out great for these drills are the T4E line of paintball pistols from umerex that look, feel, and weigh exactly the same as their real counterparts only their report is much louder and gets attention from people. The slide is a half-blow back though so you can't win them all.
    appendix carry is in my opinion the god Awful worst place to carry but people like it. I heard a lot of the usual clear and present stuff but what I heard that I liked was that your guy circled to the outside. He taught me something new. I would have just fallen back on a straight line a few steps or at an angle but circling is always better if you have the space.
    I liked the idea of pushing or doing something before a draw. I'll add to this: don't go for the gun first. You already have your hands out, use them. Lunge right in and Jab, Cross, Push or something drop back clear and present, something like that. make sure someone isn't standing right next to you when you do this. circling immediately is cool to get off the X. thank you
    My opinion use obstacles and put them between you and if no obstacles are present, that's when you pull your trusty fixed blade knife and get that right out in front just before you pull your weapon. Now he's looking at your knife and calculating for a second or two and you present him with your weapon. Now you control space near and far. Give up or die tired. If not and he is fast enough to snatch the knife then *bang* you got the guy holding a deadly weapon and you can argue you went for the knife first for the safety of bystanders.
    I like the idea of frangible rounds. these are hard to get right now but unless the guy has a vest they should absolutely be effective especially at that range.
    finally, I emphatically believe that everyone in USCCA and like orgs should learn and practice some kind of martial art with a strong emphasis on grappling but includes striking beyond basic boxing because Boxing is built for the ring and when you get stuck between cars in a garage or some weird place like an elevator and you are turned sideways you can't effectively box your way out of all of those tight spaces, not to mention that a good grappling-striking combo art will emphasize a lot of attacks directly to limbs that are reaching to grab you or your weapon. boxers can knock the hell out of you but couldn't do a wrist lock or elbow lock etc when someone goes for your gun.
    finally, use whatever is already out and in your hand first to disrupt their attention and create a space to present the weapon in rather than going for the weapon first because you have given up an opportunity and once your hands are tied up lifting your shirt and reaching for a gun then your hands are occupied and out of action for a second while he is lunging in to pin your hands to your body, stomp on your feet and whatever.
    Even better, strike, strike, off balance (push, etc) fall back and present. I like that. practice this from the front, Side and Rear attacks and your good. Mix it up a little and that's an super easy reactive drill anyone can make up and get comfortable with and don't forget to use whatever you are already holding in your hands even if it's just your will to kick their ass. I liked this video.

    Agree w/99% the ONLY thing is that the 45° can't DOES SERVE A PURPOSE. Its so that the slide doesn't hit your body causing a malfunction, typically on a close draw the gun would be tucked a bit closer as well. At least this was how I was instructed in the Marines.

    turning the pistol nearly perpendicular to the body places the slide further away from things that can interrupt the action, (Like clothes)... a pistol mounted light, also prevents muzzle contact from putting the pistol out of battery....

      Good point. So many gun owners don't know about the possibility of an "out of battery" misfire.

    One suggestion that wasn't covered in the presentation: what happens if the assailant is experienced, knows these general techniques of creating space or a block and can quickly get around them? There are some folks that would snap your arm, break and elbow, do something that causes you enough pain to forget about what the other arm was supposed to be doing. I'm only saying, not all close encounters are by people who can be stumped right off.

      You just saved me a lot of typing. You put your hand on my shoulder, your on the ground in a hurry with a broken arm. But, I’d never give a good person a reason to put their hands on me in the first place 😊

      First issue is shooting an unarmed man, second issue is considering your gun the primary weapon.
      Many years ago, Jerry Peterson the founder of S.C.A.R.S. nineties Navy Seal close quarter combat instructor showed exactly that.

      These “techniques” are shown with a compliant attacker and they won’t even work against someone determined to fight. Try doing this with a friend who actually goes full blast. The elbow shield is plain silly, and the arm over the shoulder won’t give you control or leverage to stop someone grabbing you.

      @@TheNicolasd As soon as I see some one that close starting to draw a weapon Immediately start blasting the knees with steel toe boots as an opening gambit. The problem with these guys is that they consider the gun the primary weapon and they have a defensive mind set.

Now, secondly I must commend you both mentioning for everyone to be cognizant of the background when and IF we fire our weapons! This is the first time I've seen a "Expert" or someone from SOCOM to mention that very important part in a life and death situation! Thank you!

    Just remember that a small knife on your weak side is another very good tool to have on hand. I often pocket carry a small fixed blade in that back pocket. Other times I will have a push-knife inverted on my belt same general area.
    Multiple tools for situations just make sense...

    A gun's not your only option. If your arm gets pinned, or creating space isn't possible (you're on the ground) getting to your gun safely may not be possible. Carry a belt knife, kubotan or pepper spay on your offhand side. Having some options will save your life.

    Another alternative is the training barrels, which is solid piece of plastic formed into a barrel, they are hard to find, but 5.11 used to make them, I have three, for Sig 228, G19/G27/26, they are designed for snapping in, but can work the same for this time of training..

    You should do a video on what to do if you are attacked in a vehicle and are seatbelted into it, either on the driver side or passenger side (ex. Waiting for a friend to go to the bathroom while you wait in the parked car)? How do you get the attacker away from you when they have all of the leverage and advantage?
