I was engaged in teaching a martial arts class, and I had one student whose father liked to go to the bar next door and enjoy himself while his son was getting healthy and strong. After class one day, the father staggered in and pulled out a gun and pointed it at me, and he made the remark that karate isn't any good if a guy has a gun. I took the pistol from him, held it in my hand, looked at him, and grinned.
Yes, it is possible to take a gun away from somebody, even when they are pointing it directly at your face. I did it, and I will tell you exactly how I did it in this article. That said, and even considering what I am about to tell you in this article, I recommend giving your money to an attacker, not risking your face against volatile discharge.
You must consider which way the communication is flowing when somebody points a gun at you. The typical scenario is a fellow steps out of some alley, gun in hand, and he says he will shoot. It is easy to see that the intent of his communication is towards you.
Moving slowly so that he sees your total compliance, you put up your hands, and place them in a position that is best for what you are about to do. You should engage in a lot of intensive practice to know what position is best. It is crucially important, in this situation, that you relax your muscles utterly and entirely and make your mind icy calm.
Now, what you are waiting for is for the fellow to demand you give him your money. At this point the intent of the communication is away from you, and it is towards him. At this point he expects you to move towards him, an therefore he is not intending to shoot.
The trick behind this exercise, as I said, is to have utterly calm mind and totally relaxed muscles. Shift your head off the line of attack, away from the direction the gun will move in when you hit his wrist. Moving both hands you slap the inside of his wrist as you grab the gun.
Slapping the inside of his wrist will mess up his muscles, and there may be a discharge of the weapon, but the gun should have angled so it will miss you. With practice, and specifically practice of the technique and of the ability to be relaxed in one position in space, and then assume another position in space, you can actually refine your technique and try different methods of controlling the gun.
Having written the preceding, let me say that the technique won't work if the fellow is not interested in getting your money, but rather in kidnapping you for purposes of domination, or if he is too far away, or if you just read this article and never practiced it...a few thousand times, I also want to say that the reason I wrote this article is for training purposes, for enlightenment of the individual in a life threatening situation, not to give you the idea that risking your life is more important than money. And, I want to let you know that it is going to be a lot of fun to go point a little laughter in his face when the fellow is caught and goes to trial.
