What would you do in a scenario like this?
This shootout is pretty crazy, and it’s in Brazil so the rules of engagement by police are a little different than they are here in the States. Regardless, there are some significant Active Self Protection lessons for LEO and CCW alike from this one!

What does this shootout teach us about protecting ourselves against an armed attacker?
In a gunfight, movement is your friend. You must be ready not only to draw and fire, but to draw and fire while moving laterally, back, and diagonally. You simply will not stand still in a gunfight because it is against every instinct you have when in mortal danger! People who focus too much on stance or isosceles vs. Weaver forget this fact, but as self-defenders we must know that we will be moving. So practice and train movement on the draw and fire. This is a great reason to have airsoft trainers and practice draw and move in your dry-fire regimen as well. –Active Self Protection
