Five seconds from concealment to first shot is a terribly low bar. You'd know this if you actually owned guns and trained seriously.
Bragging about drawing in "less than five seconds" is like bragging about bench pressing "more than 100 pounds".

My friend since 2nd grade got married and asked me to be his best man but the wedding was in Brazil so I didn't go
He was practically begging, bro you don't understand! The place we're staying is right on the beach
And I'm like nigga I live 10 minutes away from the beach and I can go there without risk of getting robbed with a machete, you'll have to do better than that

It's lardass cope: they want to buy a solution instead of working for a solution. The same gunfags who don't see the value in other martial training are the same gunfags who don't train seriously at the range.

Not as much as they should. You can thank department budgets and police unions for that.

He had his taser out instead of his pistol because they were trying to deescalate instead of letting the guy commit suicide by cop like he wanted.

No shit, OP. That's why it's categorized as deadly force. Unfortunately, deadly force is haunted by the specter of Any Reasonable Man, whereas a double leg or kicking someone's legs out from under them is not.
On the flipside though, I was informed that as of last year, in my state, slapping a rear naked choke or even a guillotine on someone now constitutes lethal force, and the victim of said choke can perforate your ass for it. Which was news to me.
>>
>>205155
I mean, I see the logic in the law. You, as an experienced grappler, know that you can let off after 30 seconds and then get away. John Doe the fat retard in a tap out shirt who thinks he could just go crazy on a ufc fighter is liable to put some poor bastard in a choke hold for 15 minutes and kill them.

OP is always such an effective troll because it's true. You could spend 20 years training your body to the peak of human ability and a child will a gun will still be able to effortlessly kill you. People who have spent a lot of time training in martial arts or whatever don't like hearing this so they come up with a bunch of cope instead of using their brains like >>207408 and buying a gun.

The only time I ever think about self defense is when someone like you brings it up. I'm gonna be real anon, in the past month I haven't left the house unless it's the grocery store, the gym, or the library+park in the middle of the day in an affluent area.
For my money pepper gel is easier to wield, less legal hassle, cheaper, less training required, just as effective for deterrent, and less likely to find weapons pulled on you in return.

When you use one, whether or not it becomes a legal hassle is up to the DA, not you.

Okay, you base the tool to save your life on its cost.
>less training required
I'll agree with you on this one.
>just as effective for deterrent
No, a pepper spray isn't guaranteed to take someone down. a CNS hit with a gun is guaranteed to work.
>less likely to find weapons pulled on you in return
I'd say its about the same chance of getting a weapon pulled on you, but I suppose on this one we'll have to agree to disagree.

This illustrates the argument for both training and having a gun. The big guy avoids getting shot the first time by grappling John Wick, but John Wick is uncommonly strong himself and trained to a high degree of competence in martial arts and so successfully fights to regain control of his weapon. Being unarmed didn't mean the big guy had zero chance, and being armed didn't keep Wick from a hand-to-hand fight.

In my country using a gun against a unarmed person or without a lethal weapon always annuls legitimate defense because the means exceed the aggression, the person as long is unarmed can walk to me and try to grapple the gun and if I shoot the one getting arrested is me

Kek. This is fucking hilarious. Civilians are expected to be more competent than the law.

Police standards vary by department in the US but on average police are only required to put in about 50 shots down range every year. For context that’s one box of target ammo which most people go through in an hour or less at the range.
I should also add that “untrained” citizens with concealed carry permits have higher hits on target per shots fired ratios every single year. I’d trust a random boomer with a Glock in his waistband to not accidentally shoot me than any fucking cop in this country.

What if the MMA fighter also has a gun? I'd wager he probably spends more time at the range than you do, judging from your thought process. You probably wouldn't even know what to do if you were in a situation where you needed to draw your gun.

Bjj isn't useless
Having confidence to handle someone and appreciate how fucking difficult is to get someone on their belly and to confront the possibility of things getting ugly is huge
Striking arts obviously good for addressing how shit things get in the blink of an eye
Gun handling obviously good so you're not a fucking tool with a gun
Also knifes are scary as hell not because they aren't dangerous
But because retards are stupid enough to kill you even if you land a maiming/lethal stab on them

>sees a guy who has put a lot of time and work into his body and training
>instead of just acknowledging that person's accomplishment, feels so outclassed that they have to imagine shooting him to feel better about themselves
why are people like this?
The truth is that if you can't beat someone in a fight, your chances of being able to draw and fire during that fight aren't as great as you might think. Sure, you have a better chance than without any gun, but it's wrong to see carrying a gun as some kind of magic solution that will let you win 100% of the time.
inb4 "i wont let him get close" yeah, you will. You're not going to just shoot anyone that comes within 20 feet of you. You're probably going to get your ass beat and have your gun stolen or worse. I recommend getting at least some training/experience with open handed fighting as a supplement to carrying.
>>
>>235611
>instead of just acknowledging that person's accomplishment, feels so outclassed that they have to imagine shooting him to feel better about themselves
I'm not one of these anons. I don't do martial arts, but I really want to in the future. My little brother does boxing. I train really hard in the gym to build my body and get super strong, and I started lifting in 2013. I feel pretty good about myself for working towards improving myself every day. However, there is one thing that really pisses me off and makes me super jealous: rich people.
You can tell people that if they did X, Y, and Z, and worked really hard consistently over so many years, that they could realistically stand a chance at being an elite athlete, as in being in the top 1% in an athletic discipline. You absolutely cannot tell somebody that if they did X, Y, and Z, that they would realistically stand a chance at entering the top 1% wealth-wise. If you're in the top 1% in the US in 2025, you have a net worth of at least $11,000,000. (18% of Americans have a net worth of $1,000,000.) How the fuck are you supposed to gain anywhere near that amount of wealth, in 2025 dollars, within your lifetime? Don't forget about taxes. Also, being rich doesn't really matter when you're old, anyway. Funnily enough, income inequality is about the same in the US and Europe, but wealth inequality is way greater in the US. It largely has to do with inheritance. Don't forget there are tons of people out there who get underpaid, even if they're making something like $80,000 per year, and there are tons of people getting overpaid with several millions of dollars per year.

It's a difficult feeling to fight. There's a reason that envy is one of the seven deadly sins, and I believe that today it's one of the most dangerous ones because of how socially encouraged it is. Sometimes it feels like even movies, shows, and other forms of media will push the narrative of "rich people bad". It's insane how easy it is to have feelings of envy sneak up on you without even realizing it. Once you learn to look for it, you see it everywhere.
Guy has a nice car? Fucking prick, he's wasting his money on something he doesn't need. Hot wife? She's probably just a gold digger or cheats on him. Lots of money? He's an asshole who takes advantage of others and is out of touch. Strong fighter? I could just shoot him dead.
The list goes on and on, and while these explanations may be true in some cases, I feel like so often I see people give in to having malicious reactions to seeing those who are more fortunate or successful.

Handgun stopping power is largely a myth. A case study:
Timothy Gramins of the Skokie, Illinois Police Department used his .45ACP Glock 21 to place 14 shots on a suspect, 6 in potentially fatal areas (heart, right lung, left lung, liver, diaphragm, and right kidney). Despite this, the suspect kept shooting and moving (without the assistance of drugs or alcohol), finally falling to the pavement after three shots to the head (one through each side of his mouth and one through the top of his skull into his brain).
The suspect fired 21 rounds and was still showing vital signs when EMS arrived, but was too perforated to be saved by doctors. Gramins fired 33 rounds and sustained a wound to the shin and cuts from broken glass. The firefight lasted 56 seconds.
Instead of carrying 37 rounds of .45ACP and 10 rounds of 9mm Luger, Sergeant Gramins now carries 145 rounds of 9mm Luger every day on the job.

>Handgun stopping power is largely a myth.
Nta, but one exception would be self defense against wild animals like bears and moose. You'd want something like a 10mm for dealing with those to get more penetration.
>>
>>237135
Better penetration allows for more options for good shot placement in those large animals but doesn't yield "stopping power" in the commonly understood sense, e.g. how a large rifle round might impart enough force on a human target to immediately physically incapacitate him even without a central nervous system hit.
>>
>>
>>237154
A rifle is a better fighting weapon than a pistol, but for daily carry pistols end up being a lot more practical for the majority of people. Since the size limitations of a carry pistol put serious constraints on cartridge size, barrel length, etc. optimizing for stopping power is likely a bad approach. Training for fast and accurate shot placement while maximizing round count with a cartridge capable of adequate penetration and tissue damage seems to be the most popular approach, with the primary goal being to score a central nervous system hit and the second-best option being to put enough holes in the circulatory system to depressurize it.
The best concealed carry option for pure stopping power with a low round count is probably a pocket full of hand grenades.

Every single black belt and master in my association carries bar none.
They know they can probably win a hand to hand fight against 99% of the people of the world.
They also know that a completely unskilled, untrained idiot with a gun can very much kill them and their chances are 1,000x greater with their own gun.
>especially since the thug very likely isn't trained with the gun either
>>
>>237130
I remember this, and I do cite it as there are aberrations worth mentioning.
However there's another study that looked at handgun calibers used in ~1600 police reports, such as .22LR, .32 Auto, 9mm Luger, .357 Magnum, .38 Special, .45 Auto, etc. also included the catch-alls of "shotgun" and "center fire rifle".
The takeaway: handgun calibers are pretty negligent in differences. 9mm, 40S&W and .45 Auto were the most common, each with hundreds of cases. Probably a lot of mag dumpers if I had to guess.
Shotguns and rifles were far and away the leaders against any handgun cartridge in ending a gun fight.
Also, as Ayoob has mentioned ad infinitum: gun fights don't last more than two or three rounds, that study also corroborates that.
But again... there's always exceptions. Do you need 30 baby killer caliber rounds in a fully semi-automatic assault rifle ghost gun? Probably not, except when you do.3
Also, FMJ and JHP performance are wildly different. I'd take a .45 Auto FMJ over a 9mm FMJ for lethality but a 9mm JHP is damn near on-par with .45 Auto JHP so it's well worth the trade-off for capacity gains. As a gearhead might say...

why not both?
weapon retention starts with good situational awareness and decent striking and grappling skills, and good baseline cardio, hand-eye coordination, strength and flexibility. OP is baiting but srsly, watch hours and hours of footage of bodycam footage. Shit doesn't go down as smoothly 1 v 1 most of the time even if the cop has a firearm and the suspect does not. Always helps to both be able to confidently and reliably use a firearm AND use your body to strike and grapple your opponent.
Find or grow a community of friends and colleagues that you can go to the range with AND spar/roll with, and sooner or later you'll be starting your own little militia....

But youtubers and redditors told me that gun disarms don’t work in the real world!
I’ve read some old military manuals’ gun disarm sections and they’re very interesting. While the common consensus on the internet is that gun disarms are a foolish idea likely to result in the death of the disarmer (“You are not batman! You’re not John wick!) these military manuals written by people who have actually been shot at claim that trained persons can reliably disarm guns held within arm’s reach of them. Here’s some of the main points I’ve noticed:
>Even in the 1940s there were many records of police disarming criminals, criminals disarming police, injuring them, killing, etc. In the modern world many successful gun disarms have been caught on camera. Can all of this really be attributed to selection bias?
>because the disarmer chooses the time to disarm, the gunman has to react to them rather than the other way around. Basically you have a head start, which critically means you can move your body out of the way before the gunman can shoot.
>You don’t have to wrestle the gun out of their hands, knocking it out and/or knocking them out is just as good should you be faced with only one opponent. Disarming a gun might seem impossible, but does sucker-punching someone seem the same? Gun disarms can just be sucker punches with the extra step of getting off the line of fire.
>people say “no-one will ever hold a gun that close to you”. But criminals very often do, and one manual I’ve read claims this is because holding someone up puts them in a defensive mindset. It is often possible to get them to come close to you.
>Some disarms involve things specific to the model of gun, like semi-auto handgun X won’t fire if you hold the slide. While these do work, they are bad to teach beginners because you can only use them if held up with handgun X, and they’d have to learn new techniques for handgun Y and rifle Z
>>
>>252533
Continued
>training needs to be as realistic as possible in order for the student to have the confidence to actually do it IRL. This means real but unloaded or deactivated weapons, and even blanks for the advanced student.
>you should be careful not to look at your opponents weapon as to not arouse suspicion. Lead them to believe you are scared to death.
>In WW2 they initially taught a trick where you’d hold your hands wide apart so the gunman could only look at one and be vulnerable to attack from the other, but they stopped teaching this because the trick became known to the axis.
>wait for your opponent to get distracted. This lowers their reaction time, giving you a greater window for success.
Generally, these manuals address a lot of common critiques I see of gun disarm methods. Most online tutorials only use a couple of these points of advice, and there’s several points I’ve never seen acknowledged at all. In the youtube tutorials you can find for gun disarms, I’ve never seen any of my favorite WW2 era techniques. (Well, except for archived training videos of that era.)
What do you think, anons? Are gun disarms possible in the real world? (Expert has 51%+ chance of success) are gun disarms practical in the real world? (1 month training gives most 66%+ chance success) It’s controversial but I am inclined to believe that gun disarms are practical.

Gun disarms do work, which is why so many martial arts teach it. The main risk is that the chance that the gun will go off is high, so you are not just risking your own life if it goes wrong but also the lives of those in your surroundings if it goes right. I'd say that if you are in a secluded area, go for it; if you're in a crowd, rethink your idea.
