Not since 1955 when Elmer Keith came out with his classic Sixguns has such a comprehensive book on handguns and practical shooting been offered. In Handbook of Handguns, Timothy Mullin, author of the “Testing the War Weapons” series, brings pistols into the 21st century. This handbook is not just another evaluation of popular guns. Rather, it features more than 40 unique chapters on all aspects of handguns, including gunfighting rules, making practical modifications, “desperation” weapons, the surplus scene, essential reading, traveling abroad with a firearm, shooting schools, .22s for defense, left-handed shooting, training the nonshooter to shoot and much more. . A must-read for anyone interested in firearms, combat shooting or personal defense. 8 1/2 x 11, softcover, photos, 240 pp.
