My son showed me how to do this. So many ignorant people do not understand why the police do not let anyone who is armed with a gun or knife anywhere near them. People are sooooo stupid.
That’s the second mistake - letting anyone get too close. By close, I mean with in leaping distance.
The first mistake is not shooting them in the first place.
The first SoB I don’t know inside my home I see, I won’t be holding them at bay and questioning them.
My first words to my lawyer will be “I genuinely feared for my life.....blah, blah.....he dead”.
It's also why police don't let people who are "unarmed" close to them. There are police training videos which show just how fast someone can close a distance of even 30 or 40 feet and attempt to take your gun. They are very eye-opening. It's best to keep some kind of cover between you and the bad guy.
