Comment:
This is a very comprehensive book, very in depth in the the "hand out" draw(this is how i was refered to the draw). This book has great info on shooting stances and bits on what to do if your gun has problems and combat marksmanship.
I would like to kritik one part though on its comment on shooting over obstacles. my opinion would be to ignore the tiny bit on shooting over obstacles (unless the situation demands it) but by shooting over an obstacle you present a greater silhoutte against the background.
But all in all this is worth the money, it has taught me a lot about pistol handling in combat.

Master Tactical Shooting for the Citizen Soldier

Comment:
Time and again, when writing up my forthcoming book, "Citizen Soldier Handbook: 101 Ways For Every American to Fight Terrorism", this book was recommended by police officers, professional security and other individuals (including soldiers). The book is clearly laid out in chapters on terms, mental training, fundamentals of pistol shooting and the various shooting positions. Safety is also emphasized. The book also discusses lawful personal defense usage.
A key element of the book is the type and number of drills which are clearly illustrated with photos - lots of photos. They show positions and techniques in a step-by-step basis. This is a great reference and a worthwhile investment to improve your shooting skills. In these perilous times, the Citizen Soldier needs to improve their skills. After a terrorist attack, the police and other first responders will be extremely busy. It will be up to the law abiding citizen to defend their families and communities.

Comment:
Erik Lawrence has a lot of good information in this book, and for many it does give a great overview of a lot of material. That being said, some of the techniques shown are not current. This is in no way to diminish Mr. Lawerence's military background, but some habits that one learns in the military have been proven outdated by those at say, Gunsite, Thunder Ranch, Sig academy and so on. For example, using just the forefinger and thumb to release the slide, has been essentially dropped from many a schools curricula in favor of a "saddle grip" that is with the thumb facing rearward and four fingers grasping the slide, using two major muscle groups are more efficient than using two fingers to grasp the slide. Secondly shooting over cover is generally a bad idea, as it highlights the one thing that you don't want shot, your head! Again, these could be stylistic differences, but noting the recent publication date of the text, these things have already been covered and updated prior to publishing. Positional shooting, reloads, and malfunctions are covered very well. Again a good book, but not the instant classic as some are claiming it is. Also a trip to gunsite can never be replaced by a book.
