My wife and I had talked about a situation where either you or your spouse is taken as hostage by knife or gun point (My last thread).
Let's say in this scenario, your wife is held hostage, you have drawn your weapon, but this time the BG hides behind your wife where you don't have a clear shot. What do you do?
We talked of shooting through the hostage if the BG is taking her away where the situation could get a lot worse? We know they show it in the movies, but in real life...what can you do?
Shoot him in the foot, leg? on a moving target?
The best we came up with if the hostage feels he/she can take the chance, is put a counter lock on the weapon hand so that for a second the weapon is not in a killing position, and go into a kneeling shoulder throw or drop to the floor if possible. Then you can take your shot because the hostage is giving you a clear shot for a second.
Any ideas?
