Handgun Training: How to Deter Parking Lot Kidnapping (Video)

Watch this episode of First Person Defender to learn life-saving tips on how to draw a firearm and defend against a parking lot kidnapping attempt.

I found this episode particularly engaging because it simulates a scenario we can all relate to: Leaving the grocery store with a kid in tow and a handful of groceries. I picked up at least 3 three good tips from this episode:

  • Stay alert. There's a lot happening in a parking lot.
  • Maintain distance. Move. Don't let anyone within your comfort zone.
  • Shield children, angle, then draw – shout commands.

To learn more about personal defense I highly recommend these new resources:
