Massad Ayoob – Joins Us To Discuss Lethal Force Aftermath
The winner of the Outstanding American Handgunner of the Year Award in 1998, Mas has won several state and regional handgun shooting championships. Ayoob is one of the very few Five Gun Masters among the 10,000-member International Defensive Pistol Association, and was the first to earn that title.
He served 19 years as chair of the Firearms Committee of the American Society of Law Enforcement Trainers, and several years as a member of the Advisory Board of the International Law Enforcement Educators and Trainers Association. In addition to teaching for those groups, he has also taught for the International Association of Law Enforcement Firearms Instructors and the International Homicide Investigators seminars.
Massad has received judicial recognition as an expert witness for the courts in weapons and shooting cases since 1979, and has been a fully sworn and empowered, part time police officer for decades. Ayoob founded the Lethal Force Institute in 1981 and served as its director until 2009, and now trains through Massad Ayoob Group.
Massad has appeared on CLE-TV delivering continuing legal education for attorneys, through the American Law Institute and American Bar Association, and has been retained to train attorneys to handle deadly force cases through the Armed Citizens Legal Defense Network. Ayoob served for two years as co-vice chair of the Forensic Evidence Committee of the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers. He also appears in each episode of Personal Defense TV (Sportsman’s Channel).
Massad joins us today to discuss protecting yourself as an armed citizen from the threat we seldom consider, our own legal system. How to make sure you are not in violation of the law, what constitutes justification for the use of deadly force and having a “prep kit” for after a deadly force incident.

I had the opportunity to train with Massad last year, and it was absolutely the best “bang for the buck” that you could ask for. I did MAG-40 which included both extensive range time and classroom time on exactly the topic of this interview. I still read through the notes I took to refresh myself from time to time. If you ever get the chance to go…DO IT. There are benefits beyond just what you learn…believe me.
I for one will be going back, I missed out on an autographed $1 bill by one lousy point on the qualifier shoot at the end…I’m going back for a re-match!
This is a very educational episode. We also liked the interview recently with the guy who talked about — something just doesn’t look right, predators with their eyes forward, prey with eyes on the sides of their heads — I forget his name but that was a good show too.
One of my favorite episodes! Glad to see that it is today’s Rewind.
I try to listen to this at least once a year. Thanks for the rewind.
