Frequently Asked Questions

What is a 'surreptitious draw' in self-defense?

A surreptitious draw is a concealed firearm draw executed subtly, often under the guise of a normal movement or distraction. The goal is to draw the weapon without the attacker noticing, creating a tactical advantage for the defender.

What are the 'rules of stupid' in self-defense?

The 'rules of stupid' refer to avoiding dangerous situations by being mindful of stupid places, stupid people, and stupid times. Recognizing these factors is key to preventing encounters where you might be forced to defend yourself.

Why is 'drawing from the drop' dangerous?

'Drawing from the drop' means drawing your firearm when the attacker already has the initiative and a clear advantage. This is dangerous because you are reacting defensively from a position of weakness, increasing the risk of failure or escalation.

How can feigned compliance help in a self-defense situation?

Feigning compliance, such as appearing to surrender or tossing a wallet, can put an attacker at ease and lower their guard. This can create a crucial window of opportunity to execute a surreptitious draw and defend yourself.
