This page looks at the Krav Maga techniques that are used against a carjacking by an armed opponent. These techniques are taught to Krav Maga students in many Krav Maga schools. However, be aware that unarmed combat against guns, knives or clubs is very dangerous and should only be used as a last resort. Consider other options first, especially how to get away from danger and avoiding dangerous environments. For information on other Krav Maga techniques (i.e. punches, kicks & grappling), please visit Black Belt Wiki’s main Krav Maga Techniques section.
This information is meant to supplement what is taught at Krav Maga schools. To properly understand these techniques, you need to learn them from a certified Krav Maga instructor who can give an in-depth explanation of the technique, correct your mistakes and detail how the technique should be utilized. All martial arts techniques should only be practiced under the supervision of a trained martial arts instructor in order to prevent injuries and to ensure the proper technique is utilized. In addition, all martial arts techniques and training should be used safely and responsibly.
