Frequently Asked Questions

What tactical advice is given for entering a garage?

When parking, it's advised to back into the garage to improve situational awareness of anyone following. A garage is not considered safe until the door is fully closed, emphasizing its nature as a transitional space.

How can a firearm malfunction by a perpetrator be advantageous?

A perpetrator's firearm malfunction creates a critical 'window of opportunity' for the defender. This window can be used to escape to safety or, for a trained individual, to potentially launch a counter-attack.

What are the benefits of using Mantis training products?

Mantis products like the X10 Elite and Blackbeard allow for efficient skill-building. The X10 Elite offers detailed performance analysis, while the Blackbeard enables rapid dry-fire practice for AR-15s without manual racking.

Why is carrying a firearm on-body (EDC) important?

Carrying a firearm on-body (EDC) ensures immediate accessibility in a self-defense scenario. Storing a firearm in a glove box significantly delays access, potentially costing critical seconds during an ambush.
