Which option names a technique that strips the firearm from the forearm using an elbow?

• A. The Elbow Strip (Firearm Retention)
• B. R.C.A.T. Firearm Disarm (Takeaway)
• C. The Knee Rake (Firearm Retention)
• D. Rifle Retention Circle Twist

Answer: (A)

In firearm retention, names often reveal the main tool used to gain control. An Elbow Strip literally signals that the elbow is the primary means for stripping the firearm from the forearm. The maneuver leverages the elbow to disrupt the attacker’s grip and create an opening to remove the weapon, aligning the action with both the tool (elbow) and the outcome (stripping the firearm). That direct connection between the method and the result is why this option is the best match for the described technique. The other names point to different mechanics: one emphasizes the knee as the primary tool, another suggests a circular twist around the rifle, and the last describes a general takeaway approach without specifying the elbow-based stripping action.
