    Handling handshakes from strangers...?

    I would advise against standing joint locks. In my experience, while they are certainly effective, they are what i categorize as low percentage moves. they work, just not often enough to risk losing positional dominance and risk disarmament. I would however recommend a handshake for arm drag...

    .410 pump for apartment HD??

    well, if the situation arose where you warned, then fired upon an intruder. then i would not consider it reasonable to assume they will rethink their course of action. drugs? adrenaline? getting pissed that some dude just peppered him with birdshot? also, know that birdshot will...

    .410 pump for apartment HD??

    #6 shot will not hit like a 357... the shot column would have to act in the manner of a slug, which is does not. it acts like a few hundred tiny pellets. as a conglomeration they lack the necessary penetration to stop a bad guy.

    Ordered to ground at gunpoint for open carrying by cleveland heights ohio police

    yes, go after the law enforcers, good idea. everyone knows how much control they have over the law and over societies hoplophobia. OC being legal or not, you know your going to run into some kind of trouble and you were clearly looking for it. going out and about your day lawfully carry open is...

    Looking for some opinions on my choice of Martial Art training

    a jack of all trade, master of none. i'd say learn some serious jiu jitsu, stick with it, and then keep up with the Muay thai. there is nothing in those arts that you wont find anywhere else

    Including Physical Training as Part of SD

    i understand that many arts "train" for mult. attackers. i believe the truth of the matter is that multiple attacker drills is folly. you dont have eyes in the back of your head, no amount of chi can help with that. i also believe that lineage does not add legitimacy. i never have understood...

    Including Physical Training as Part of SD

    respectfully, i still have not found a martial art that successfully deals with multiple attacks or armed attackers with the sole exception of track and field or a CCW. my own beloved art included. I dont know any BJJ guy who wants to stay underneath, on the ground. my first goal is to improve...

    Including Physical Training as Part of SD

    you need to get involved in a grappling style of some kind. i would recommend finding a brazilian jiu jitsu school assoiciated with one of the gracies. i dont buy into martial art styles that tout eye gouges and throat strikes. over on the sherdog forums, people would always tout these as the...
