Frequently Asked Questions

What key self-defense lesson does the ASP video emphasize regarding carrying defensive tools?

The video stresses the critical importance of consistent daily carry (EDC) for defensive tools. Criminals choose when and where attacks happen, so individuals must be prepared at all times by carrying their tools every day.

What is the 'FIBS factor' and how does it affect an attacker?

The 'FIBS' factor stands for 'Fudge, I've Been Shot.' It describes the psychological and physical pause an attacker experiences upon realizing they have been accurately hit, often leading to a cessation of their aggressive actions.

How fast was the store clerk's draw-to-first-shot time in the incident?

The store clerk, Mo, achieved a draw-to-first-shot time of approximately 1.9 seconds. This is considered a proficient speed for private citizens, meeting recommended standards for effective self-defense.
