Which statement describes a 4 square disarm when the shooter is a right-handed shooter in front of the officer, with the gun pointed at the officer from the front and within reach?

• A. The subject has a long gun pointed at the officer from the front and the gun is within the officer's reach.
• B. The subject has a long gun pointed at the officer from the front and the gun is within the officer's reach. LEFT- HANDED SHOOTER
• C. The subject has a long gun pointed AGAINST the officer's back. RIGHT HANDED SHOOTER
• D. The subject has a long gun pointed at the officer from the rear

Answer: (A)

Weapon orientation and distance in a front-facing, right-handed shooter scenario. In a 4-square disarm, the key detail is where the muzzle is directed and how close the weapon is to the officer. When the shooter is right-handed and stands directly in front of the officer with the firearm aimed at the officer and within arm’s reach, the description that fits best is a long gun pointed at the officer from the front and within reach. This orientation defines the immediate threat and establishes that the gun is directed toward the officer from the front, not from behind or to the side. The other setups—such as the shooter being left-handed or the weapon aimed from the back—do not match the described arrangement.
