TESTIMONIAL

Training June 29, 2017 – Jersey Tactical and Richmond SWAT

Richmond SWAT had been loaned a Jersey Claw to T&E. During that trial, Richmond SWAT responded to an incident at a school. They used the Claw to breach numerous commercial grade wood doors. Per several of their team members, the Claw allowed them to quickly pry the doors and gain access to areas which would have taken much longer had they used a ram and/or a halligan. Based on the tool’s success during a critical incident, Tovar and his team motivated their agency to purchase approximately 10 of the Claws to be used by patrol officers.

Practicals were conducted at a hotel that is due for renovation. The door’s lockset included a typical latch (which is unlocked through use of a magnetic key card) and a rectangular steel deadbolt. Both fall into a steel jamb. All doors were inward swinging. Firstly, it should be noted that several experienced breachers attended the course. Attempts were made to breach the doors through use of a ram (the most typical tool we use to conduct mechanical breaches), many of which failed. In instances where entry was gained with a ram, it took no less than five strikes. The number of strikes increased if the operator attempted to use the ram on their “non-dominate” side. Several operators (not with our team) were unable to open the door after 10 strikes. Primarily, the breaches failed because the walls of the hotel swayed and the steel lockset and jamb remained intact.

The tool weighs 10 pounds. On one end (where most of the weight resides), there is a hybrid claw and sledge (see photos). The claw has three forks. Opposite the forks, there is an oversized flat surface used for delivering strikes as a sledge or as the strike face for setting the tool. This is attached to a metal pole, either 24 or 30 inches. The tool is primarily used as a pry. However, when swung (like a baseball bat) it was effectively used as a sledge. This method allowed operators to destroy the jamb near the locks, “taco” the center of doors, and/or force a necessary gap between the door and the jamb, allowing a single operator to successfully set and pry the door.

When two Claws were used, one operator placed the claws above or below the lock. The second operator placed one hand opposite the “business end” of the tool and one just below the actual claw. A jabbing motion is used to set the Claw being used to pry (note: the head of the tool is heavy enough to easily set another tool). Once set, the first operator breaches the door.

John demonstrated how to defeat cable and pad locks using two Claws. He also used two Claws to shear exposed hinges on doors. Similar to breaching tools we currently use, the Claw is able to create gaps by setting the tool (either with ram or Claw) and using upward or downward leverage to create gaps. Operators were also exposed to the application of the Claw when prying inward swinging doors (breaching from inside hotel room).

Advantages of using the Claw:

Most interestingly, when the Claw is paired with one of the available slings, it can be carried across an operator’s back, leaving his/her hands free to manipulate their weapon systems. This allows the breacher to remain a gunfighter until their services are needed. In our current system, one operator must carry a large pack of tools and in most cases remains near the rear of the stack. When needed, the breacher must move to the operator carrying the pack to remove the appropriate tool, then the two must move to where they are needed. Or, the breacher walks through the structure with tools in hand, in lieu of a weapon. With two Claws deployed, when a breach is needed, the “tool carriers” need only move to the breach-point, saving time.

The Claw can act as several tools in one. Two claws remove the need for multiple pry bars, a Halligan, sledge, and in many cases, the ram. The VAST majority of breach points this team will face will routinely (and most efficiently) be defeated by a ram. However, as was case during the hotel training, the ram was least effective. Our ability to employ shotgun breaching is also extremely effective, however, metal doors (often found in entrances to schools) would pose a significant obstacle.

TESTIMONIAL

Three critical items that I always have in my vehicle in order to respond to a critical incident as a first responder: 

  • A rifle 
  • A plate carrier that holds body armor & identifies me as a Law Enforcement Officer 
  • A Jersey Tactical Claw that is slung in a go-sling with Purchase Point Wedge (PPW) attached to the go-sling 

My name is Drew Allison and I am a SWAT Team leader for a mid -size police agency in the state of Texas. I am our departments lead ALERRT Active Shooter Instructor and am responsible for coordinating active shooter training for multiple agencies and multiple counties in the North East Texas Region. 

Breaching has always fell into two categories for years for patrol officers: Law Enforcements SWAT teams and the Fire Departments. 

This leaves patrol hanging with whatever tools they can buy at the local hardware store and with whatever on the job training they can learn from others. 

ALERRT puts on an outstanding course teaching patrol first responder’s how to breach into a crises site in order to stop the killing of an active attack. See attached link for more details.  https://alerrt.org/course_types/Breaching 

I was introduced to the JTC Claw in 2022 at the Texas Tactical Police Officers Association Conference. After that, JTC came down to Longview and helped us stand up a breaching training program for our patrol.  

At the end of the day, all crises start with a 911 call and patrol is the first on scene to respond.  Not SWAT or your specialized units. The CLAW was designed to be used in a go-sling for patrol to deploy to a crises site with rifle in hand.  When the CLAW is combined with their PPW (wedge) the ability to preform a solo breach by yourself in order to gain access to a crises site is very achievable for a patrol officer.  

On my go-sling I carry two tourniquets for direct threat care, one rifle mag for an emergency reload, and PPW (wedge). 

When I arrive on scene my CLAW is slung and my rifle is in my hands.  The way the go- sling is designed allows my rifle mag and support equipment to be on the front of my plate carrier in my work space if I need it in a fight while keeping the CLAW slung on my back out of the way until I need it.

I give an LCAN report to dispatch (Location, Conditions, Actions I am taking, & Needs -what do I need for support and where do I need that support), and move to locate a possible breach point. If it’s an all metal door on a commercial structure without glass, I begin my breaching procedure steps: 

  • Check to see if the door is unlocked with my left hand while my rifle is still in my right hand
  • If the Door is locked- unsling the CLAW and sling my rifle
  • Deploy and set the Wedge with my left hand and drive the wedge into the gap with the top part of the 9lb CLAW head with my right hand. 
  • Once I see light or the gag is large enough for me to set the CLAW into, I turn the CLAW teeth around and set the CLAW into the gap I created and pry north & south gaining the largest mechanical advantage. Once the door is open, I drop the claw and move to my pistol and clear the threshold for an immediate threat. 
  • If there is not an immediate threat, I prop or pen the door open so it will not close again. 
  • I holster my pistol, pick up my wedge and re-sling the CLAW under my rifle sling
  • I give a second LCAN report to follow on officers that I have a positive breach and I mark the exterior breach point so they can identify it. 
  • I move forward into the crises site if I have actionable intel or wait for a second follow on responder. 
  • If I encounter an interior breaching issue, the CLAW is slung on my back and I repeat the steps above. 

If you cannot get into a crises site, why even show up.  

As a patrol officer, we need to teach single person breaching and single person response to active shooter. We need to teach how to carry and deploy these tools up and through a crises site.  This falls on all first responders shoulder now, not just specialized units such as SWAT. 

See photo below of the CLAW in a go-sling with a rifle mag, two cats, and a PPW wedge with gloves attached to the sling. 

Respectfully,

SGT. Drew Allison
