Realistic system for the street. August 3, 2008
A well thought out and written book, with plenty of illustrations to allow the reader to visulize what the author is talking about.The system presented is realistic as to what to expect in true self defense use of the handgun. If you are going to carry with a CCW permit or keep a handgun in the home for protection, the information in this book is essential.
 Decent read but there are better books and ways July 17, 2008
I cruised through this book when I was already a decent shooter. There wasn't much there for me that I didn't already know. It's informative for a novice or marksman level shooter. If you want a book about the principles and mechanics as well as the mental aspect I would suggest Brian Enos' Practical Shooting. I got more from that book than any other. Even better yet. Find a shooting instructor such as Stanford to learn by doing. Enos will raise your game by getting you to better interpret what you are "seeing" that you may not be conscious of.
Precise, concise, and to the point - Great book! June 12, 2008
I have been on a kick for the last several months. I read books about guns, about ammo, and mostly, about tactics. Reading all of Massad Ayoob's books was a great experience and I wish he had more. Eventually, I had to explore other authors. This is when I found Andy Stanford. His style is great. No bull; to the point writing makes this subject very enjoyable and easy to read. He takes you through the basics, but also explores more in depth tactical information. This is a must-read for anyone who is integrating into their life self protection for their family.
SHOOTING PRIMER June 3, 2008
THIS IS AN EXCELLENT BOOK ON THE SUBJECT OF SPEED SHOOTING. THE PRINCIPLES TAUGHT HEREIN ARE ACCURATE AND EASY TO ASSIMILATE. EACH SECTION IS BROKEN DOWN AND THE READER CAN ACTUALLY DEMONSTRATE TO HIMSELF/HERSELF THE LESSON BEING TAUGHT. THIS IS THE BEST BOOK ON ACCURATE SPEED SHOOTING I HAVE SEEN. THE ONLY NEGATIVE WOULD BE THAT MR. STAFFORD SPENDS WAY TOO MUCH TIME DEFENDING THE ISOSCELES STANCE OVER THE WEAVER STANCE.
MR STAFFORD MAKES THIS NOT ONLY A TEXTBOOK, BUT A LABORATORY MANUAL ALSO. EACH PRINCIPLE CAN BE WORKED ON AT THE RANGE AS WELL AS ONLY READ.
A very worthwhile read May 29, 2008
Stanford's book is solid: well-written, clear, and oriented for both right- and left-handed shooters. Much of it dwells on the natural superiority of the isosceles stance over the Weaver, but there is a great deal more here as well. It would be nice if there were a further reading list, more resources for shooters, and more material in general. Still, if you carry or if you are just interested in fast, precise shooting, this book is a great read.
