Lets say you have a very good job, big house, 5 cars… (wife, kids… )
In the city where you live, there has been many kidnappings… small bands of BGs that kidnap wealthy persons and ask for ransom.
From the evening news, you know that the ending of the kidnappings is uncertain... in the majority of cases people go back safely to their families after paying the ransom… but in other cases, the victim had been found dead even after the family payed the ransom… and in other cases when the victim resisted to be kidnapped, BGs killed the victim immediately.
You are reasonably concerned that someone might try to kidnap you as well, but you decide that you are not going to be a prey… so you get a CCW permit and carry everyday (here you can choose to carry only one gun, maybe also a BUG, possibly also a tactical light, knife, pepper spray, stun gun… extra ammo) and you have hired a bodyguard too. (you can choose his weapons).
Besides, you keep some weapons in the car - just in case.
Many months pass and nothing unusual happens, but one night on your way home (btw, your bodyguard is your driver also and your car is not bulletproof); your car is on the right lane and waiting for a traffic light. There is one car at your left and one car behind you ( "car Nr1" ). - so far, nothing unusual...
Suddenly, a car crossing the street in front of you ( "car Nr2" ), stops perpendicular to you preventing your car to move forward. (Imagine that your car and "car Nr2" are in a position similar to the letter " T " ).
Then, "car Nr1" (the one behind you) advances, bumps your car and stops. Immediately, 3 BGs come out of "car Nr1" and other 2 BGs come out of "car Nr2" .
You haven't seen yet what weapons the BGs are carrying, but in other kidnapping attempts, usually BGs use pistols and long guns (SKS)
The driver of the car at your left (innocent bystander?) seems to panic and just lay down over the front seat of his car)
Questions:
What weapons and ammo did you choose to carry for you?
What weapons and ammo did you choose to carry for your bodyguard?
What weapons and ammo did you choose to keep in the car?
Why did you choose those?
Now, what you and your bodyguard are going to do? Your skills and your weapons are up to the task?
--------
Btw, to make this scenario more interesting… I will say that this type of kidnappings are not hypotetical but happen in real life (two cars, 4-6 BGs, pistols and long guns). The whole act lasts less than 5 minutes. The only difference is that usually the victim is alone (no bodyguard to help)
So far, I'm unaware of a successful attempt to repel the kidnappers.
There was one case when the 'victim' realized his dangerous situation a few seconds before. He tried to escape with his car but crashed against a wall (or crashed against other car?). Anyway, BGs opened fire, bullets passed through the car and 'victim' was DRT.
