Howdy. Nice board you guys have here. I hope you don't mind a newbie tossing in his two cents....
When I was a peace officer, I studied the Lindell system of retention. From my personal experience with gun grabbers, it works great, and is easy for a smaller officer to use against a larger big guy. What I didn't like about it was that you had to learn too many techniques. Every different type of grab had its own defense. If you don't practice regularly, you'll forget them. I picked a couple that I could adapt to most types of grabs. The two day course I took wasn't enough to retain all the techniques without practice.
