Summary: For beginners only
Comment: This book is intended as a "minimum requirement reading" for new gun owners. The book fills the bill adequately, but the problem is that it handles the issues very superficially. The book addresses about all the important issues, but it does not give them the proper treatment.

On the other hand, because the book is very thin and fast to read, it more probable that a prospective gun owner has the patience to read through it, and it certainly is better to have read this book than having read no book at all. But the problem is that some persons (who are not into reading, anyway) may think that they have read "a book about shooting guns", and think that they don't need to study the subject any more. One has to wish that reading this book gives a beginner an stimulus to study the subject further.

Summary: On this book and carrying a concealed handgun....
Comment: This book is a worthy read- very helpful for someone who has made the decision to protect themselves and others with a firearm.
On the issue of needing a permit to carry a concealed firearm or handgun, I am opposed wholeheartedly to that concept and practice. It is NOT constitutional to require it. It is, in point of fact, an illegal registry of gun owners and is scarcely distinguishable from a gun registry system.The second ammendment already guarantees the right of America's citizens to have guns in their posesion at all times without any interference from the government. The law as it exists in my state is so subjective that the mere whim of the attending police officer is what determines whether an individual is "breaking the law". I do not for one instant believe that registering gun owners stops any firearm related crime; e.g.: If a person is willing to commit a crime with a gun already, how on earth is forcing law abiding citizens obey a bogus law that demands they report that they MIGHT be carrying a concealed handgun going to stop them? Do they honestly think that just because it's illegal to carry a handgun unseen is of an concern of a brutal criminal? As I already stated, I ALREADY have a right to carry any firearm almost anywhere, at anytime; seen or unseen. How DARE my state government try to interfere with the exercising of that constitutionally guaranteed right! I eagerly await the day when someone, supported or not, by the NRA, fights a concealed firearm/handgun law all the way to the Supreme Court of the United States and will shout with joy at the instant that they strike it down the as unconstitutional threat to our freedom that it is!

Summary: Mighty slim
Comment: I was surprised to see how small this book was - I should have read the fine print! It worked out to around 70 pages, I think. The book is apparently drawn from the author's introduction-to-handguns classroom curriculum and is very light on content. The most informative handgun book I found by far was "The Concealed Handgun Manual" by Chris Bird.
