Borrowing a white tiger just to take the best pictures of a topless
dancer posing with a German World War II Mauser might seem to be a
little extreme for getting the reader's attention until you
consider that author photographer Jack Corbett and his friends
turned the White Tiger loose in a topless club afterwards. But
"Extreme Guns and Babes for an Adult World" is not your average run
of the mill book about guns. It is a collection of 26 articles the
writer-photographer produced while writing for "Xtreme Magazine."
This second edition of the book is printed in full color whereas
the 3rd edition is in black and white and the first edition was
published in Kindle. Each edition contains over 100 photos. There's
over 26 models posing with the 26 weapons (or the Tiger), and all
of them are feature entertainers and strippers. Jack Corbett's
mission was one nearly every red blooded American male would envy
which was he got to select his own models for his articles while
getting to write about any gun he chose. And since Xtreme Magazine
is a small East Coast adult magazine there was no bureaucracy to
put up with. There's a lot of good stuff about guns here for all of
you gun lovers out there. For instance, did you know why the Colt
Python was the best .357 magnum revolver on the market or why
Vietnam era M-16's are better man stoppers than the "improved
models" being used today? Or why the underpowered, inaccurate
(according to its detractors) M-1 carbine was the favorite weapon
of Audie Murphy, America's most decorated World War II hero or how
the German M42 machine gun outclassed the 30 caliber Browning used
by American World War II soldiers? The book is labeled "adult" but
this might be a misnomer. If you are looking for porn you will not
find it here. If you are looking for complete nudity, there's been
a coverup, as even though a large number of the pictures appearing
in this book were shot in the nude, bare nipples and the most
private portions of the models have disappeared into the dark
recesses of Photoshop.
