ADTA Everett, Free Hands-On Workshop, Handgun Takeaway & Retention

Presented by ADTA Everett:
Handgun Takeaway & Retention

FREE HANDS-ON WORKSHOP—Open to ADTA members, friends, family, and the public.  

Please RSVP to let us know you will be there!

VENUE:  American Legion Hall Post 127, Woodinville, WA 98072 

Event Description:

Firearms are most effective at a modest distance. In a defensive situation, you may need to defend against a firearm at arm's length, or retain control of your own firearm while struggling with an opponent attempting to take it from you. Join us for this informative, hands-on participation seminar on pistol and shotgun take-away techniques and retention techniques at close-quarters contact distance.

We will be using inert training guns for this exercise. This is a good confidence building skill to have because you never know when you are going to have to deal with something like this. A home invasion robbery scenario comes to mind.

The ADTA's mission is to offer practical self-defense skills in a safe, empowering, and supportive environment. This hands-on workshop is free and open to the public.
