5 out of 5 stars Like his other books, an outstanding common-sense overview   November 23, 2007
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Gabe Suarez has written several books on shooting, and like the others, this book provides a solid introductory base to the who, what, when, where and why of employing the shotgun. Many have criticized his works because they can't get past "the basics", which he presents in each book. However, it's these "basics" that you're most likely to remember, use and be successful with. If you have his other books, you'll read through some familiar territory including the psychology of using a weapon against another human being, the risks and considerations and the common-sense practical aspects of being prepared for the time you may have to do so. Then he launches into the specialty of this book, suitable equipment (guns and accessories) and successful employment of the equipment to survive the encounter. Before you buy this book, beware, Suarez does not believe in point shooting (neither do I). If you're as stubborn as I am, only you're in the point shooting camp, don't bother with this book. Suarez is a student of Cooper and believes in using your sights. He does little to nothing to address the other point of view.

4 out of 5 stars Excellent Review of Tactical Shotgun Techniques   April 29, 2007
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

Gabe Suarez covers a wide range of topics: Shotgun Types, Ammunition, Accessories, Loading, Shooting Positions, Malfunctions, Close Quarters Defense, etc... It's an excellent overview of tactical shotgun shooting for those just beginning to learn and a great review for those with more advanced skills.

There are numerous illustrations, a list of resources and suggestions for further reading.

Overall a well written book that covers a lot of ground.

Check out this guide to the defensive shotgun while you take a class on the subject. This book emphasizes all the important techniques.


5 out of 5 stars What your shotgun training should include   March 27, 2007
 2 out of 3 found this review helpful

The Bounty Hunter breakin here in Phoenix in '97 prompted me to take up the defensive shotgun. I found a local school and began the thrilling task of learning how to operate the 12 gauge pump not only as a formidable tool for things that go bump in the night, but to learn its capabilities and shortcomings (hostage rescue). Suarez' TSG addresses all the best techniques and provides much supplemental material for applying these techniques using different operating systems (Rem/Mossberg slide/pump, semi-autos).

It's all here: patterning with buckshot/shot, one/two-hand operations, slings and modes of carry, tactical and emergency reloads, indexing, loading a slug on demand, position shooting, and transitioning to sidearm/secondary weapon. The book is filled with excellent photographs which document the above techniques. Suarez' skill as a trainer clearly shows in the effectiveness of presentation.

Although I'd recommend studying the defensive shotgun in a practical setting, this book is a great way to see what should be covered in such a course. If you don't have social shotgun skills, there's no time like the present. Social unrest, home invasion, nuisance animals--do it now.
