Hmm. Sorry, but I don't take counsel from fools. It's called credibility and this bone-head has none. Even if he had a PhD I wouldn't start grabbing slides and karate chopping beer cans. I really don't know why we're even debating this clown's ideas. He's good for a laugh and nothing more.

Welcome aboard :cheers2:

Well, I don't think the guy is an idiot per se - he's obviously well-meaning, but there's a lot more to be aware of than just grabbing the slide or a revolver's cylinder. It's a factor to be aware of, yes - but it is not a disarm in itself, and the promotion thereof is irresponsible as disarming is in no way a sport.
Have you seen his beer can videos? This man is assuredly an idiot.

Re: crazy gun video

I guess the reason that I find grabbing a gun so foolish is that if someone were to even gesture toward my drawn gun I would pull the trigger until it stopped going bang out of fear of losing it and having it used on me.

I just have a problem with the 'toober describing his video as
Grabbing slide of automatic pistols to inactivate them
It does no such thing - and I would hate for people to think that that's all they have to do.
:iagree: Yep-The gun still goes bang and then the gun is by no stretch of the imagination "inactive".

My instructor is in the process of learning to teach this skill and is definitely NOT a gun expert, so I've been reading as much as I can from other sources. I found this article interesting: http://www.usadojo.com/articles/deadly-gun-disarm.htm
I would only give this idea consideration if it disabled the weapon, or removed the gun from the bad guy. It does neither.
Yes, they remove the weapon from the BG. I'm not sure how it could be a "disarm" if it didn't.
So you grab the bad guy's gun and hold his slide while you take a round to your chest or head. Then while he's laughing, you pull the gun from him, rack the slide, and then empty it in the bad guy? I don't think it's a good idea to ever suggest grabbing a bad guy's gun.

Re: crazy gun video

It's difficult to figure this guy out. On one hand you think he's a comedian that has created a gun-nut, over zealous, self defence instructor moron character, but something tells me that he may be the real thing. Does he really conduct classes where he spreads his stupidity? This is the exact thing that will make people fear guns/gun people. Still I can't help but think that he's doing a Sasha Baron Cohen thing. Hmm.

Re: crazy gun video

What benefit is there? You stop the next round from cycling after you've been shot once. Then the bad guy racks the slide and empties the gun in you. Am I missing something? And you have to grab the gun, which guarantees a good point point shot into your torso.
