Victim Shoots Knife Wielding Attacker

The old adage about bringing a knife to a gunfight is true, but at Active Self Protection we say that videos like this show that you've got to win the knife fight before you can make it into a gunfight!

If you value what we do at ASP, would you consider becoming an ASP Patron Member to support the work it takes to make the narrated videos like these armed robbers getting their just desserts? https://get-asp.com/patron gives the details.

How do I protect myself from a knife attack?

1. Everyone likes to say, "Don't bring a knife to a gunfight." But it's equally true that you can't bring a GUN to a knife fight! This attack shows that you have to win the knife fight before your firearm can come into play effectively. Trying to draw a firearm when someone is stabbing you with a knife is a great way to die, so work on your empty-handed skills to win the fight you're in so that you can earn the right to draw your firearm and end the fight.
