I was teaching a martial arts class in a small town some years ago, and I had one student whose father dropped his son off, then sauntered over to the bar next door to enjoy himself while his son was getting healthy and strong. Class was just over one day, when the father staggered in and pointed a gun at me, and asked me what good my karate was now? I moved, he gaped at his gun suddenly appearing in my hand, and I grinned.
It is possible to take a gun away from somebody, even if they are aiming it directly at you. I'm going to tell you how I took that fellow's gun away from him.. That said, I don't recommend risking your face against volatile discharge, and I do recommend giving your money to a fellow holding a gun on you, even considering what I am about to tell you in this article.
The first and most important thing you must consider, when somebody points a gun at you, is which way his communication is going. Typically, a fellow steps steps out of a dark alley, is pointing a gun at you, and he says he will shoot. The intention of his communication is towards you.
Moving slowly so that he sees your total compliance, you put up your hands, and place them in a position that is best for what you are about to do. You should engage in a lot of intensive practice to know what position is best. It is crucially important, in this situation, that you relax your muscles utterly and entirely and make your mind icy calm.
Now, what you are waiting for is for the fellow to demand you give him your money. At this point the intent of the communication is away from you, and it is towards him. At this point he expects you to move towards him, an therefore he is not intending to shoot.
The trick behind this exercise, as I said, is to have totally relaxed muscles and an utterly calm mind. Shift your head away from the direction the gun will move in when you hit his wrist and off the line of attack. Using both hands you grab the gun as you slap the inside of his wrist.
Be aware that the gun may go off when you do this, but the gun should have angled so the bullet will miss you. To make this work you must practice the technique, and you must learn how to be relaxed in one position in space, and then virtually instantaneously in another position in space, and then you can actually try different methods of controlling the gun and refining the technique.
Let me say quickly and forcefully that the technique won't work if the fellow is not interested in getting your money, but rather in kidnapping you for other purposes, or if he is too far away, or if you just read this article and never actually practiced the technique a few thousand times, I also want to say that I wrote this article for training purposes, for enlightenment of the individual when his life is threatened, not to give you the idea that your life is more important than money. I also want to let you know that it is going to be a lot of fun to go to court when the fellow is caught and you get to point a little laughter into his face.
