A Must Read For The Concealed Carrier March 4, 2007
8 out of 8 found this review helpful
In "Armed Response" author David Kenik takes the reader through the steps of deciding whether the citizen even wants the awesome responsibility of being a firearm carrier. This is followed by a detailed explanation of what physically happens to a person's body when confronted with a shoot/no shoot situation and the considerations that must decided on in micro-seconds.
From here, the author lays out the different types of revolvers and pistols, carrying styles, holsters available and ammunition types that will help the new carrier understand the strengths and weaknesses of these important pieces of equipment. Armed with these choices, the informed carrier can decide for themselves what will work best for them.
He continues on with important narrative on confrontation techniques that will win in a gunfight but having done that, what the shooter will be faced with in the aftermath. Just as important these days are the self-protection steps that are suggested against attacks from lawyers.
Overall, an excellent read for the new or experienced concealed carrier.

Another good book to read and recommend, learning the ins and outs of defending yourself and your loved ones. I'm happy to add it to my self-defense training library!

There are many, many resources out there for those citizens that are considering carrying a weapon for personal or home defense. Many if not most of these have been written by current or former law enforcement officers and may contain tips and guidance that are not optimal for private citizens.
This book is written by a private citizen who has attended extensive and exhaustive training from some of the best in the business, and is now offering his insight from "the regular civilian" perspective.
I have read many books and periodicals on this subject over the past thirty years. I still learned quite a bit and had to rethink a number of ideas I had assimilated from other authors.
In my opinion, this book is a mandatory addition to the reference shelf of any armed citizen.
 A short, comprehensive overview of the issues January 25, 2007
7 out of 7 found this review helpful
I read this book years after having become very familiar with the issues of gun safety, etiquette, concealed carry, and self-defense. Having read much more in-depth books prior to this one, I can say that this particular book is a great one to begin with. For seasoned shooters or firearms enthusiasts there will not be much here that will teach you something new. You WILL get a great, comprehensive overview of all the issues relating to firearms use in self-defense, ballistics, legal ramifications, etc. In fact, the book reads like a compilation of many small articles (like the ones you might see in gun magazines). The chapters are short.
For anyone starting to consider carrying a firearm, or someone new to the concept of having to defend yourself or loved ones at home, this is a great introduction. The book will definitely give you things to think about.
