Drawing from the holster against live assailant | Tactical Rifleman
This video emphasizes the critical importance of incorporating movement and basic empty-hand defensive skills into holster training for self-defense scenarios. It argues that a static draw is insufficient when an attacker is close and may require blocking or evading before presenting a firearm. The content advocates for dry-fire training with tools like SIRT or blue guns to practice drawing while moving and simulating defensive actions such as shoulder checks and "Split X" blocks. The aim is to prepare shooters for realistic, close-quarters encounters, highlighting that defensive firearm use often involves more than just a clean draw.
