Jason do you have any tips on defending myself while asleep? In my area there's a very serious drug and rapist problem. Currently I have literally nothing but looking to get some future ideas to stay ahead of aforementioned scum creatures. Thanks.

[@islaadele1212]

I live in a very peaceful, semi-rural area in Northern Ireland, and a couple of years ago, two men broke in at 4am, armed with a machete and a crowbar. I was very, very lucky; I got knocked around a bit, but they left after I gave them cash and car keys. The police basically told me to get a dog and a ring door bell. There are very few legal options for weapons here. Mace and pepper spray are illegal. If I even tried to import a stun gun, I'd be looking at 10 years in jail. We have some of the strictest gun laws in the world here, gun ownership is less than 5% of the population and that's mainly farmers who own a shotgun or two. Handguns are totally illegal unless you can demonstrate a 'verifiable and specific' threat to your life. Even with those laws, there were over 60,000 shooting incidents in Northern Ireland during the Troubles. So, yeah, bad guy wants a gun, he'll get one. Me? I now have a Doberman. I love him, but I don't fancy his chances against a gun, or a machete for that matter. Guard your freedoms fiercely, folks.

My ex neighbor was a single, frail , elderly woman who was a real homebody. The full extent of her home security system was: 1: a HUGE 14" stainless steel dog bowl, and 2: a size 14 pair of beat up sneakers; both of which sat just outside her front door... ;)

Good content. I had a home invasion by four masked and melee armed criminals when I was seventeen. My mom had witnessed a crime and they probably wanted to silence her. She saw them running up to our front apartment door, panicked and i really had to man up. I had an axe, picked it up, told my GF to close all curtains and hide, told my mom to call 911, then ran to the door and saw how they looked through the peep-hole, then chose our hallway chokepoint as my last stand and visualized how i would strike, retrieve the axe and retreat slightly to regain momentum. Crazy enough, they didn't get it even with a crowbar. It tought me a great deal about my character.

You went into that special zone that no one wants to go into but it is needed during such times. I was attacked when on a mission by three persons was in bathroom (not using at the time) two on either side me one directly in front I was able to flip the two on either side me right into bath tube and third guy somehow I threw into tube as well it ended quickly but that special focus and zone you can go into really serves you well and you just have to trust yourself and your training and always visualize what you might do in many different circumstances and you will amaze yourself but believe in yourself and practice. Glad they didn’t get into your house. It’s a terrible thing to have to deal with bad guys and need do everything can to avoid in the first place but sometimes you simply cannot.

[@billwilliams9362]

Great . Whats a hallway choke point ? 👍🇦🇺

[@leo-ub6nb]

Two tips, to add onto yours. 1) Being able to traverse through your house in complete darkness while maintaining little to no noise! I feel like noise discipline gets overlooked a lot. Hunters know how to stay quiet when hunting their prey, so as to not scare them off. In your home, you *ARE* the hunter. The intruder is your prey. I know my layout like the back of my hand, but in darkness, it can feel completely different. I can walk through every room on both my floors and the steps without a single light on. If someone is in your house, you might not want to give away your position, especially if there is only 1 way to get into a certain area or a choke point, like stairs. My wife and I have lived in the same house for the same amount of time and she can’t for the life of her, walk through our house in the dark. 2) The guy who didn’t have one in the chamber. If that’s how you roll, due to personal reasons or the wife is giving you a hard time, fine. But now you *NEED* to train as such. When you’re in a situation where you need to pick up your gun, you need to train that muscle memory where your unconsciously racking/loading a round. The sound of loading a round can also do a few things. Some good, some bad. It can scare off a subject. Or, it can make that subject prepared by allowing them to have their (possible) weapon ready and also give a general location as to where you’re at in your home. If you want to try to “silently” load a round, cool. But some guns might not like it and malfunction with a feeding issue. Some guns like to be abused a little. So, whatever your situation is, you need to learn how to work around it/with it to give you the edge on an intruder. Train. Prepare. Place yourself in the most uncomfortable situation. Think out scenarios. Think what you’re going to do in such scenarios. Act out those scenarios with dry runs. Once you got your training down, good. DO IT AGAIN!

[@JasonHansonSpyBriefing]

Thanks for sharing those wonderful tips! God bless!

[@jovanzivkovic3079]

Great comment!

[@danielbeck9191]

PERFECT PRACTICE makes perfect!! Work on the troublesome areas over and over WHILE DOING THEM PROPERLY so you remember the RIGHT way to do each part. I would recommend keeping the chamber of your defense gun loaded, as ANY loading action on your part will alert the intruders to your location. You want the intruders to have as little information about you as possible.

[@MrsFearEstate]

I was going to comment about your first tip 🙌 my ex husband is military. Every time we moved, we practiced clearing the house incase of an intruder. I’ve only had to use it one time (poor pest control guy came into our apartment unannounced…I didn’t shoot him, just made him piss himself). I wasn’t scared, because it was day time, I was armed, and my dog was my backup. If it happened at night, that would have ended differently. Now, I always make sure I know how to properly clear the house from every room.

[@GNew6393]

This is not proper or recommended by home defense experts (tactically and legally). The only time you need to "hunt" is if you do not have family or guest safely accounted for and you should have a plan to do that so that you gather everyone or have them in a secure hidden location. You should secure your own location, while notifying 911 and making sure you have a defensive location where killing the intruder is the last and only if necessary step. This includes states with Castle Doctrines. You notify the intruder(s) you are armed and will shoot. You don't use a flashlight until you need to blind or aim at the intruder otherwise your light just gives away your location. You should know your own house better in dark than anyone. Why would you light the way for the intruder? The man in this video echos these recommendations. You do not go outside to fire on them or hunt them down in the street. You will have tremendous legal trouble if the police and/or DA decided that you went on a "hunt" for your prey. My recommendation is to go to Wilson Combat for other sensible self defense videos.

[@janetpattison8474]

I took a gun licensing class & the retired cop who did the training said rely on the police for nothing, their job is follow-up after a crime has happened. Most entries happen through doors. If possible get the metal security doors, and one of the outter storm doors they make, has unbreakable glass looking, polycarbonate, or another high-tech shatter proof material. My car was broken into, & the cop who came to do the report had a home break-in & she gave this advice: always leave lights on, inside and out, always lock up, even when working in the back yard, the authentic looking dummy cameras are better than no cameras, leave talk radio on loud if u are out, don’t have doors or windows where a person can easily see right into your home. I had a security system, but it was only for door, and windows need alarms as well. And I think that being agreeable and forking over money and /or property is the best survival tactic if a person gets in. You can’t shoot a person in my state unless u can prove that they had deadly intent.

[@Rayja3]

The auditory exclusion is such a real thing. It’s hard to explain unless you have experienced it. I have unfortunately been involved in two critical incidents, once in the military with IEDs and once as a law enforcement officer involved in an OIS. Both times my training took over and I was able to avoid the “amygdala hijack” But that auditory exclusion is so real.

[@Medic6581]

Dude, I was in my daughter's Cub scout class last year and her instructor began to rip tape for a project they were working on, and just the sound of the tape ripping tripped me into a dissociative episode. Afterwards I figured out that on every single 911 job I've ever been on I always performed the same ritual before inserting an IV, the first step of which was to tear the small role of tape in the ivy start kit into four or five pieces and then stick them wherever I happened to be on the floor or in the bus. First the sound started becoming very loud, then echoey and then I actually started to experience tunnel vision before slowly getting back. Had to stumble to the bathroom. Human beings are the weirdest creatures on the planet for sure - and a consciousness that is aware it is aware, well, that's just God letting us partake of an awesome sense of humor A la Mike Tyson with the tiny voice, or the draft who has a 25 ft neck and no vocal cords.

Good info. My glock .45 stays with me every minute of my life now all the time. Wife has her 38. But without question the three best things you can do are # 3. Sticker or thorn plants around back or side windows make it difficult to get in. #2 motion sensor light in front and rear walkways work fantastic. #1 the absolute best thing for home protection. That gives the best advanced warning....is a Doberman, a Rottweiler, a German shepherd, Or a pit bull. Having a big dog will prevent most home invasions. Those 4 breeds are the best and are naturally protective. But any barking dog gives advanced warning someone is coming.

As far as home invasion goes, it always amazes me when I hear someone yell (for example) "Bob is that you?" I always ask them, "what if the answer to that question is 'no?'" If the person in your home is not who you hope it is, then you just let them know exactly where you are. Jason announces that he has a gun, and hopes that the intruder leaves. I myself would wait quietly in hiding and wait until I ascertain the location of the intruder, get my gun pointed at him, and then announce that I have a gun. I never want to let an intruder know my location when I don't know his. Personal preference. I also expect that I'm between the intruder and my family. I also never put my finger on the trigger until I'm ready to fire. I never want to get startled by a cat, a falling box, etc., and accidentally pull the trigger. In all dozen or so times I ever got my gun and searched my home in the dark at night, I so far never put my finger on the trigger. One more thing - when walking around with your gun, looking for an intruder, if you do it like in the movies, with your arm sticking straight out, with the gun held about as far from you as it can be, then you are just asking for a broken arm, when the intruder hits your arm woith a pipe in order to knock the gun out of your hand. I hold that gun flat against my body. You would have to hit me with a car in order to get me to drop it, and I don't expect that there are any cars moving around in my home at night.

[@DevilHorst]

Well, I have actually been in that situation. First of all, when you ask that question, you typically don't wonder if it's a) the person you expect or b) an intruder but rather c) wind or something else that causes a noise. Secondly, in most countries guns are simply not a (legal) option, including where I live. Thirdly, you're assuming the intruder is not afraid of a physical confrontation. But most actually are and will do everything to avoid it. Most want to steal, not fight. If they hear you, they will run away. You probably just scared the shit out of them because they thought they were alone and can enjoy an easy smooth burglary. Now they are suddenly confronted with somebody behind a door who they haven't seen yet. So they have no idea who they are dealing with and how prepared that person is. In my case, the guy ran off quicker than I could realize what is actually going on. But I often wondered what would have happened if he had suddenly walked into my room. But I can assure you I prefer the outcome I experienced. In short, I'm sorry, but your advice is not good for most people and most situations. That's not just my impression but also what the cops told me: make noise because it will scare away most intruders while a sudden confrontation is extremely unpredictable and dangerous.

This is all extremely straight forward vital information, and common sense.

You missed a layer. In addition to camera / alarms / etc., you need to physically reinforce the building envelope. Stronger locks, long screws through strike plates and hinges, security film on windows, etc., etc.. You can't make it impossible for an invader to get in. But you can make is much slower, harder and noisier. If it's hard enough, they'll likely just give up.

Lots of people have concerns about loaded ready to shoot fire arm ( chambered, and strike/hammer pulled back). I would suggest getting a double action pistol, for example Bretta PX4 storm. You can keep the round chambered, use decocker to keep the hammer down, put safety to ready to shoot mode. Less chances of accidentally discharging the gun because you have to pull the trigger all the way with slightly more effort for it to fire. Training, lots of training is the key.

Yes, he knows what our vehicles sound like and never barks when we come home. He does not like people he doesn't know just coming up to him without asking us. This all came naturally to him, we have not done any protection training. Rotties look scary, and when needed, they can run fast, jump and knock someone down, and deliver a bite with a force of about 330 pounds per square inch. And with that big head comes a big mouth and muscles, so they can hang on for quite some time despite any flailing around a person does.

[@alancranford3398]

@@JasonHansonSpyBriefing Long story--I was in France by age 3 as an Air Force brat. I've had a 27-year military career over a 35 year period (half active duty) and worked as a security guard for three decades--retired now. While in base housing at Spangdahlem AFB in Germany and all of five years old an Air Force K-9 named Suzie was placed in my family because she had puppies. There was also the base housing gang of bullies. Because my family wasn't command sponsored, Mother was overly sensitive about me getting in trouble. One day I was walking Suzie--really, I couldn't keep up so I let her romp while I waited for her near the fence--I was jumped by more than six other boys. They were beating on me and tearing my clothes off when Suzie jumped out of the woods and scared them off. Saved by the dog. Traditional cultures sometimes used dogs to babysit small children. Suzie was something special. She had a reputation as a biter--and her job was guarding nuclear-armed fighter-bombers on the alert apron. The only reason Suzie didn't pursue and tear into those boys was that K-9's were and still are trained to stay with their handler when the handler goes down. I got out of being beaten senseless (again) and then being punished for "causing trouble" because the Air Force K-9 I was supposed to be caring for protected me. Dogs can be weapons and when properly trained--as Suzie was--they are both effective and limited degrees of force. Suzie wasn't bluffing. She didn't pursue because I was down.

@@JasonHansonSpyBriefing I was only five when Suzie came to live with me. She had puppies and she was placed with my family until her puppies were old enough to adopt.

Men, never, ever make promises based on your wife’s fears. YOU are tasked with protecting your family. A woman making a man promise not to carry with one in the pipe because she is afraid of guns is the epitome of absurdity. YOU are her protector. YOU say how it’s going to be, not her irrational fears. I think it’s perfectly fine to demonstrate your extreme caution with firearms, but not from a position of asking for her permission. This would instead be so that she is aware of your safety-mindedness. It’s your ball game, guys, and she should have no say in whether or not you keep one in the chamber. She is not tasked with protecting the family against deadly threats. YOU are.

You touched on 3 of the 4 D's of home defense. Deter. Detect. Defend. Please consider the last D: Delay. Long screws tying the hinges and strike plates back to the exterior door frames. 3M security film on windows (which doesn't thwart a glass break sensor). Decorative bars on the windows. There are many measures a home owner can implement which Delay a persons entry. This is important. My goal: if a person is going to break into my house, I'm going to be right there to Defend it. That means Detect before entry, and Delay entry.

Great advice!!! You didn’t mention several things. A good cleaning mop and sponges. A roll of heavy plastic and tape. Touch up paint and maybe spackle. An empty trunk or a pickup truck. Some type of weights and rope. And never…never call anyone. Keep your mouth shut! I got these helpful tips from my Uncle Anthony long ago. Now on a more serious note: Having hand held non firearms weapons is an awesome idea if you’re not afraid to use it close up and you know how to use it. Nothing is worse than being disarmed by an intruder and having him take your weapon and use it on you.😮 Remember that it’s always better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6.

The best way to change your wife's mind on the 'No bullet in the chamber", is to go through some practice exercises with her, (you might not always be home). It's always a good idea to go through a number of scenarios, such as a fire, poisonous fumes, burglar, and do it with your whole family, your kids need to know what to do as well, even if they can't use a weapon, if you own guns, it's your responsibility to teach your kids gun safety at some point. Both my son and daughter could disassemble my weapons blindfolded before they were 13 years old. I tell them the same thing my veteran dad told me when I was young, he said once you pull that trigger, you can't change your mind and you have to live with the results. Buy some snap caps, remove your magazine and all ammo from your weapon. Load it with snap caps, and give your wife the pistol with the snap caps, without one in the chamber. Then you open the door like you're breaking in and show her how important it is to have a loaded chamber, the difference between a loaded chamber and unloaded can be the difference between life and death. My experience shows me that most women won't pull the trigger no matter how scared they are, on a burglar, rapist, killer. Don't ask me why, I'd just ask her, take your choice, you on the floor dead or the burglar on the floor dead---Just remember the words of Joel Osteen, you can be a victim or a victor, the choice is yours. It's absolutely necessary to take your wife to the range to get plenty of target practice, it could be a life or death difference.

For a shotgun, #4 buck offers enough penetration with the greatest frontal area. In cold areas, consider #1 buck for better penetration through thick clothing. Skip the 3" magnum shells, for the home, there's not much improvement, but more kick (possibly less capacity). My 2 cents. Also, if possible, keep it "cruiser ready."

I have a Mossberg 835 with 20" counter-bored bbl & IC choke loaded with 3.5" #4B. That gives 54 pellets @ 1050 fps, rather than 27 with the 2.75". Sure, it is a lot more kick, but twice as many pellets.

I said to her I told you not to open the door, he says that’s good advice. I said to him, the good advice here is you should not be going into peoples houses when a small child is answering the door. You never know what protection someone has close at hand! It was scary to see him standing there. She never opened the door again, just yelled until I came. Kids are kids, but to protect the little ones stop them from answering doors. Anything can happen and happen fast as I experienced.

Very well presented sir. you are definitely a brother in good company!

The man was dressed down in full black ops covering finger nails face eyes etc full on. Our kids are taught well. He was able to close door lock and run up to me. I was out in vehicular all total time about 45 seconds from time of contact I timed how far he would have been able to get away on foot distance wise as I understand have cased things out of course for years. I drove around the distance and finally drove parked in front of house and before I could turn headlights off or shut engine down a pickup truck then a car drove very fast and attempted to drive into side of my vehicle . Well I chased him in attempts to get plate numbers of course. He even drove into a fast food line against the arrows going wrong way and made it through lol. Anyways long story short he never was able to make it back again guess he decided not worth it. Please do not chase or follow intruders in most cases due to liability and lack of training though. Call the police and stay within your home if someone is crashing in your front door stand back and wait for them to step clearly inside as you are calling out warnings for them to stop and leave. Great videos and instruction. I would encourage the viewership to continue watching these videos and learn to protect your family. But do not chase the bad guys normally unless you have authority to do so. This guy in black ops entered our property at 7pm in evening with our front curtains wide open and kids laying on the sofa with full camera system visible everywhere. Navy seal friend from Team 1 confirmed the guy was a bad one but he has never returned that we know. Due to the time of day it was determined it would have likely led to a home invasion. This training is spot on be aware of your surroundings and know where everything is and teach your kids what they are to do and say in the dark to you at night as well to identify bad guys in the dark of your home very very important.

I can usually find something wrong with these type of videos, but I actually liked everything he said. He started off with the I don't have to be faster than the bear, I just have to be faster than you strategy, and progressed into what to do when danger still comes your way. All of it was realistic legitimate information that could save your life.

Another negative to using hearing protection, is that you need to hear where the invader is fumbling around at in your home. Those sounds help direct you to their location.

[@Yurkevich22]

But electronic earpro literally enhances your hearing ability and amplifies quiet sounds.

[@wayneparsons7966]

Do you need to spend some money on new electronic earmuffs.

[@robertgoodrich8953]

Have you EVER used the electronic muffs 95% of shooters use? They amplify sound so you can hear BETTER with them than no muffs. What decade was it when you last went to a shooting range? Probably never!

[@okmrocksU]

@@robertgoodrich8953 Though I tend to be out or the loop of what's trendy, I appreciate the info about the electronic muffs. However, I did not appreciate your sarcasm over how often I go shooting. My old muffs serve me just fine.

I worry about over penatration with Center fire rifles I don't want my ammo going through and hitting a non target so I stick to my Remington 870 12 gage and my 9mm pistol with two 16 round mags at the ready and I study the RAT. Thank you Jason for introducing me to Paul V.👍👊

One of the things I have in my house and bedroom is a fortified door with a sturdy beam bolting all across it. Easy to lift from the inside, but noone will be able to kick in my front/back door or my bedroom door, or at least not with one kick and stand next to my bed without me noticing it. Got visible and hidden camera's around the house and even an actual tripwire that will sound an alarm when someone walks into it. The camera's where a bit of a consideration as not too many people have them here so it immediately indicates...."there is money there". No dog, but I have dog toys laying around and have an audio of a ferocious dog that starts when someone approaches the house at night. As I am in a tropical country, I have a sign on my door that I breed snakes. As I am not a national, where I live, I am not allowed a gun. Fortunately my wife is allowed to have guns and in a crisis situation the police is not gonna mind who pulled the trigger..

[@jamesshaw89]

The dog sound and sign there are snakes inside is awesome.

I lived in Pacoima ( disgusting armpit of the world) one block away from the Foothill Police station during the Rodney King riots. We slept on the floor with loaded guns. My husband and I realized we had to move out of that neighborhood as fast as we could. I now live in rural Idaho. Unfortunately, I am now a widow, but I love Idaho. I just wish we could have moved here sooner. I NEVER want to set foot in California again. I went back for a funeral 3 years ago and was completely disgusted by how far down the toilet Los Angeles has been flushed.

Every time I look at my door and the crappy job maintenance did to repair it, I am reminded of this incident. I was 10 feet away from the door. The perp took off on a bicycle when I gave chase. I shouldn't have though. I will be ready next time!!! It was a scary but good experience for me to go through, because now I will be a lot more vigilant. Folks... With this new wave of zombie drugs going around, people are acting crazier than ever. Be prepared! Don't think it can't happen to you. Don't be a victim! Las Cruces has turned into a shit hole because of federal and local purposely orchestrated negligence. This is why American Militias are now going into Mexico and doing the job our military should be doing, and should have done a long time ago. These drug cartels are paying off our senators, law makers and government. This must stop now!!!! Criminals... Be warned. We, The People are strapping up! Want a purge?

From South Africa here. Have to smile because every country is different. Here, 8 ft walls, cameras, barbed wire, a 45 close by..and I'm a patroller in Neighborhood watch. Here we face AK47's at times. The point of Neighborhood watch is important and should be mentioned because it makes one very aware of potential threats, and have a close circle of buddies that will be over in a flash if something goes down. On patrol I wear body armour and a ballistic helmet with elec ear protection and helmet mounted flashlight for hands free ops. As stated...this is South Africa, but hey...whatever works in your hood!

To take the [round in the chamber] idea even further, in a high-stress situation you might even forget to operate the safety. For home defense I prefer revolvers (I have Ruger 8-shot .357 under my nightstand). No safety, no slide, always one in the chamber, no jams, nothing to think about - just point and pull. Hopefully that will neve be tested; my biggest concern is getting the safe open in a panic.

My buddy is a patrol cop and said in his 11 years on the road, he encountered zero home invasions. The scary calls he did get of a homeowner dialing 911 and saying "There's a guy trying to get into my house!" turned out to be a drunk guy who thought he was at his house but had gone to the wrong house. Not every encounter is a deadly balls to the wall life or death situation. Still, this is an excellent video with very good tips.

I got a couple after moving to a new address: 1 was the cable guy coming into the backyard to check the access box, unannounced. 2 was a window repair company that was hired and paid by the previous owner and also entered my backyard unannounced.

Great video. I live in a state where getting a firearm is next to impossible. But, if a person can get a firearm, particularly a handgun, may I suggest a revolver. Reason: a double action revolver is super simple to use: point and pull trigger. That's it. By definition, it's always got a round in the chamber. In a high stress situation, particularly for Jean and Joe Average, a pistol may simply be too complicated, even with round in chamber the safety has to be released. Again, a double action revolver, for Jean and Joe average, is simply point and pull trigger. They aren't going to get in a shoot out so the fast firing and fast reload of a pistol isn't worth the risk of messing up when a person is terrified.

In your video you say you have a P365 in your pocket at the time. Well, I am a faithful Glock guy, but recently fell into temptation and in a weak moment purchased a P365. Took it to the shooting range and was shocked at how accurate I was able to shoot it. So much more comfortable to carry than my G26. Such a slippery slope... Not getting rid of any of my Glocks, but this does change things.
