You are absolutely correct, sir - That's EXACTLY the message that most of us should walk away from this with. I do a disarm technique when teaching weapons retention as part of the "action is always faster than reaction" bit. I have yet to have a student actually get the shot off - in fact, as part of the demo, I pull the trigger after the disarm so that students can hear it click.
I remember when it was first shown to me - it was indeed a real eye opener.

Yup. txinvestigator is spot on.txinvestigator wrote:PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do not think you can watch these techniques on video and be able to do them without getting yourself shot.......everyone.
New students always get "shot" the first few times they practice these techniques.
I should also stress that these techniques should never be attempted with trepidation or hesitation. They must be committed to 100% and done at full force.
Not only do new students usually get "shot", but they usually forget what to do after the initial movement and they almost always screw up the actual disarm if they do remember.
Amen to the 100% committment and ZERO hesitation.
