Which technique describes triangular frame retention with a side elbow strike where the subject makes a two-handed grab on the handgun from behind?

• A. the triangular frame retention and SIDE elbow strike
• B. the triangular frame retention and REAR elbow strike
• C. the triangular frame retention and TWO HANDED grab
• D. the triangular frame retention and FRONT elbow strike

Answer: (C)

Triangular frame retention is about creating a compact, stable hold on the weapon to control it and prevent disarmament while you neutralize the threat. When the attacker reaches for the handgun from behind with both hands, the key detail is that the grab is two-handed. Describing the scenario that way specifically matches the mechanism of the grab you’re dealing with, which is why the pairing that includes a two-handed grab is the best fit. The other options point to different directions of elbow strikes, but they don’t capture the precise grip pattern described—the two-handed grab from behind—so they don’t describe the same situation as accurately.
