Now what we're going to want to do is gain control of the gun from here and using the doorway, we're going to take the head and slam it into here and push the gun through around right here. Again, we're turning and slamming again, and from here, we're just going to take our leg and kick either to the back of the knee or to the back here. At this point, we're able to hold them at gunpoint until the police arrive. We'll go through that one more time. Hidden behind the doorway, we now they're coming down the hall or into the room. We're moving fast taking control and slamming their head into the wall and then again right here. Kick their back to create distance enough for you to get, to bring up the long gun and hold them at gunpoint.
