Here’s What Happens When a Gun Fires While Being Disarmed
This guide details a critical self-defense technique demonstrated by a former CIA officer: how to manage a firearm discharge during a disarming attempt. The core principle is that gripping the barrel prevents the slide from cycling, causing a malfunction that stops follow-up shots. The technique requires a 'tap and rack' to clear the malfunction after control is established. The instructor emphasizes extreme caution and the necessity of professional training for execution.
