Don't mess with an old man. He'll just shoot you.

Good for him!! Also looks like he was lucky they didn't decide to shoot back. No attempt to use any available cover and why close the distance initially against an armed bad guy? Other than shooting he didn't do much to avoid getting shot. These are common mistakes we see in FOF training regularly. I have a number of videos of FOF scenarios that look just like this, but the BG shoots back, most often striking the student a number of times. They are thinking too much about shooting and not enough about not getting shot. Glad it worked out for him.

Yeah, I have to agree.  His tactics absolutely suck.  People tend to shoot you because you let them see you.  Still, he took the fight to them and in this case, it ended well. 

The first order of business in any fight is not to get hurt.

I just saw this on another site and came to post it here but you beat me to it lol. Lucky he isn't getting charged for shooting after they were already turned and running out the door. Got my adrenaline pumping just watching it, he lucked out when the nearest threat turned his back allowing him to draw.

I like stories like this but I do want to ask?  Why did he not get in trouble for shooting at them as they were obviously fleeing the scene?
