RTT 18: Extreme Close Quarters
Close quarter defense requires different tactics than defense from a distance. In close quarters, you cannot rely entirely on your firearm, but on a combination of hand combat and firearm use. Distractions and combative forces can give you the split-second advantage to keep yourself safe.
This series is a collection of self-defense tips with career law enforcement officer Dave Spaulding, designed to help individuals learn proper skills and techniques to defend themselves. Spaulding has worked in all facets of law enforcement and was a founding member of his agency's SWAT Team. He was also the commander of a multi-agency narcotics task force that included local, state and federal investigators. Most recently, he received the 2010 Trainer of the Year Award by Law Officer Magazine.
