Videos tagged with Muzzle Thump

This video explains the 'muzzle thump' technique, a non-lethal force option using a rifle's muzzle to strike an opponent's sternum. It's intended for ambiguous threats in close proximity to create space and time for threat assessment before resorting to lethal force. The technique emphasizes striking the sternum hard and suddenly, avoiding the face, to incapacitate and clear a path.

This video demonstrates the muzzle punch or muzzle thump technique for close combat situations, as explained by Don Bowen, a Green Beret. The technique is intended for non-lethal incapacitation of disoriented individuals blocking a path, such as after a flashbang. It involves using the rifle's muzzle to strike the solar plexus or face, with kicking as an alternative at greater ranges.
