Got to thinking re. people defending themselves and family while in vechicle,by thugs and rioters.
This being intentionally stopped and/or attacked while seated in your car or truck.
Myself and a friend and recently retired ECSO deputy used my truck parked in my driveway as a training platform. He drives a truck also.
We ran several different scenario's. We used a blue gun and had no other functioning firearms or ammo in the area.
We quickly determined that if you anticipate the possibility of defending your vech and occupants,GET OUT OF THE SEATBELT. It will greatly hamper your drawing your firearm,blade,baton,etc.
Ready your defensive tools before you feel you will or could need them. I put a small towel next to my seat to cover the tool with.
If a person attempts to gain access to my vech through a open window,I will slash his (or her) forearm with my EDC,auto karambit or a fixed double edged blade carried in the door. Will try to make sure all windows are up when seatbelts come off.
If the thugs move towards my vech with a deadly weapon,a weapon that can breach my windows, my weapon is in my hand.
If the window is breached and they attempt to grab me or reach in and unlock my door . . . WELL . . . ??
Remember to defend the back window also. All windows will completely come out with the simple use of a spring loaded center punch. The front glass is laminated and is hard to get out or get through.
Some vechs have a auto door lock system. My truck doors lock when I get up to 10mph. When my truck is stopped and put into park all four doors unlock. This could be very bad. Check your individual vechs for these systems.
Practice pushing yourself back away from the side window. Practice even more if you shoot left handed.
Run through as many sanerio's as possible. Get a buddy to help with this training. More people,more ideas.
Good luck to us all. --- SAWMAN
