Defend Against a Handgun to the Back of the Head

Video Transcript

"Tres Tew here; I'm an instructor at Yeshua's Ryu Martial Arts and on behalf of Expert Village, we are going to be going over handgun self defense. This is a technique I'm going to show you where someone has the handgun to the back of your head. Very similar to the previous one; our hands are up. We are simply going to move our head outside of the line of fire and at the same time assist with our elbow right here. Now we are going to wrap around and strike to the side of the head, punch either to the neck or the face while we've got control of the gun hand. Now from here, we are just going to step back and slide this hand to here, gaining control of the gun and at the same time pushing him down. Letting him fall down, but reaping out the gun, okay. Now, we are going to do this again. Again, you want to do this part fast. Right here, you are catching it. Striking, pulling back and you've got control of the gun. I'm simply stepping behind that left leg and posting so that when i push him, he goes down and then I'm backing up so that I'm able to hold him there until the police arrive. Now, again, the police are probably one of your best assets when it comes to self defense. If a policeman is around, leave this to them, okay? They are highly trained professionals and they know what they are doing. Okay, so if someone is holding you at gunpoint and the police are there, please do not attempt to do any of these techniques. "
