Customer Rating:  Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4
Book in great condition as promised. Delivery date was 2 week spread. Book came in middle of 2 week period.

Does not live up to its title, but otherwise decent
Customer Rating:  Score = 3 Score = 3 Score = 3 Score = 3 Score = 3
This book tries to cover most aspects of defensive or tactical shooting. It is NOT about surgical accuracy. In fact, I have not found any book that is about achieving accurate shooting technique, besides the US Army Pistol Marksmanship Training Guide which you can find for free online, and which is better than this book. On the topic of defensive shooting etc, Gabe Suarez's books are probably the best bet for you.

Pros:
- well illustrated
- concise and to the point
- latest techniques and most current thinking explained; up-to-date

Cons:
- chapter on trigger control is shortest in the book, even though author says this is the biggest accuracy problem for most shooters
- too much space (more than for grip and trigger control) devoted to basics like loading, reloading, malfunctions, drawing, holstering, etc issues unrelated to accuracy in shooting

Overall, not a bad book, but I feel Gabe Suarez and Massad Ayoob are better authors on this topic.

Okay Book, was looking more for shooting drills
Customer Rating:  Score = 3 Score = 3 Score = 3 Score = 3 Score = 3
A little dissappointed that this book lacked examples of good practice drills. Would be a fine book for someone new to defensive handgunning.

Realistic system for the street.
Customer Rating:  Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4
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
Customer Rating:  Score = 2 Score = 2 Score = 2 Score = 2 Score = 2
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.
