Mroz, whose articles have appeared in Combat Handguns and Guns magazines, takes a no-nonsense approach to such topics as the need for empty-hands skills, range training vs. real-world training, the problem of range standards, understanding and developing startle recovery, and the pros and cons of competitive shooting. 5 1/2 x 8 1/2, softcover, photos, 160 pp.
