How to choose, carry,& shoot a gun in self defense. If you carry a gun for personal protection, or plan to, you need to read this book. B&W photos; 6x9 inches, 459 pgs.
A guide to responsible, safe, and lawful exercise of the right to bear arms. Useful to anyone who carries or is considering carrying a concealed firearm. The second edition contains an entirely new chapter on school shootings that recounts how two of these rampages were stopped by people familiar with firearms. The new edition reports on new guns suitable for concealed carry and adds more accounts of armed confrontations. It also updates the state's concealed-handgun-laws chapter to include web sites, reciprocity agreements and up-to-date statistics.
While politicians and government officials are trying to blame guns for the rash of school shootings that has gripped the country for the past three years, Ryker and Myrick offer a different perspective on school violence. In both incidents, they were able to stop the killings because they were trained in the use of firearms.
Charlie Johnston, police chief in the Denver suburb of Lakewood, believes children who have been trained in gun safety and are familiar with firearms are safer than those who have been kept away from them. His opinions and accounts of the shootings in Springfield and Pearl are contained in the new, revised edition of The Concealed Handgun Manual.
The book also includes updated details about the number of concealed handgun licenses issued in the 30 states that allow ordinary citizens to carry guns for self defense. While the Clinton administration did everything it could to discourage more states from passing citizen friendly concealed handgun laws, the number of people licensed to carry guns inceased steadily. Author Chris Bird estimates that in the past three years, another 300,000 people have been licensed to carry concealed handguns in these states. The 30 states now contain about 2.7 million license holders and violent crime has decreased.
The Concealed Handgun Manual, Second Edition, contains more accounts of armed confrontations between ordinary citizens and criminals.
The book contains advice and information for people who carry concealed handguns for protection and for those who are considering doing so. While it contains some shooting instruction, the book delves into much more than when and how to shoot.
Subjects covered include: why people carry handguns; how to avoid getting into a violent confrontation; choosing a handgun; the legal and psychological consequences of shooting in self defense; the mental attitude needed to win an armed encounter.
The first edition of The Concealed Handgun Manual received endorsements from: Massad Ayoob, internationally known gun writer and trainer; Clint Smith, director of Thunder Ranch shooting school; the Second Amendment Foundation; and Bill Clede writing in the American Guardian. The book also appeared on the Texas Department of Public Safety’s approved reading list for concealed handgun license holders in that state.
