Introduction to Rear Gun Disarm
This instructional segment covers an advanced pistol disarmament technique executed from behind the attacker. This method differs from traditional outside approaches by utilizing an inside control strategy.
Critical Safety Warning
Practitioners must understand that rear gun disarms carry extreme risk of injury or death. This technique should only be attempted as a last resort when the defender believes their life is in immediate danger, and must be executed with maximum speed and commitment.
Establishing Weapon Position
The defender must first establish tactile contact with the barrel of the weapon by backing into the attacker. This critical step provides positional awareness since visual confirmation is not possible, ensuring the defender is within optimal striking distance.
Initial Movement and Evasion
Upon weapon contact, the defender simultaneously raises both hands and explosively moves laterally to clear the path of potential fire. This combined action creates distance from the barrel while initiating the disarm sequence.
Arm Control and Throat Strike
The defender drives forward while wrapping the attacker's gun arm, securing weapon control. A simultaneous throat strike or clinch is applied to destabilize the attacker and facilitate a takedown.
Weapon Recovery and Control
Once the attacker is grounded, the defender maintains control of the weapon arm and secures the firearm. Any additional defensive measures or tactical actions can then be implemented as the situation demands.
