At the link: This past Thursday, a man seated in a car, defended himself from two assailants (I use this word not knowing if the two intended robber, murder, kidnapping, carjacking, etc) who pulled up fast on a motorcycle. No gore.
Observations/considerations:
MINDSET
• The would-be victim appeared as aware as one can be; the act of having a motorcycle pull up is not itself enough to draw, but he appears to note its presence nonetheless.
• Once it became clear that he was under threat, he looked for an opening and took it. His movements appear to embody "slow is smooth and smooth is fast" without tipping his hand to the assailants.
SKILLSET
• Can you draw while seated and belted in a car?
• If not, does this make a case for a car gun? (IMO, it doesn't given how easily and commonly stolen many are.)
• How well can you shoot while seated and belted in a car?
• Do you carry with a round chambered?
TOOLSET
• Nothing obvious to add here, IMO; the handgun he had worked, as would any serviceable model in this particular case.
If anyone comes across further details, please share; I have no other background.
