Frequently Asked Questions

What is a safer way to grip a handgun placed on a surface?

Instead of reaching for the gun with your finger on the trigger, place your finger alongside the frame. Use your support hand to apply upward pressure on the slide and roll the firearm into your shooting hand to establish a two-handed master grip.

How can you defend yourself if you end up on your back during a confrontation?

The 'bicycling' motion can be used to keep an attacker away and create distance. This allows an opportunity to draw your firearm and engage if necessary, potentially from a side position rather than returning to your back.

What is the recommended practice for learning ground fighting techniques with a firearm?

Fighting from your back is a dangerous technique. It is crucial to practice these skills under the direct supervision of a qualified firearms instructor to ensure safety and proper execution.

What firearm model was used in the demonstration?

The firearm demonstrated in the video for grip acquisition techniques was an M&P pistol. The instructor also showed drawing from an appendix carry holster.
