Congratulations on taking the step to becoming licensed to work armed. Carrying a gun is a grave responsibility. Many security officers and investigators do not work armed. In order to work armed, most states require extensive training. The course is taught in a short period, and much of what you learn will be forgotten immediately after the test. It is important to know about guns: to choose the best gun for your job, to care for the gun, and to know how to operate it, especially when it malfunctions.

Written primarily for young shooters entering the scholastic trap arena, the New Trap Shooter Primer is great for new coaches, parents, and volunteers who have some basic questions about the sport. Most new shooters and parents who get started in scholastic trap, don't have a shooting background and need the basic vocabulary that people who grew up in the shooting sports take for granted.

In Quantitative Ammunition Selection, Charles Schwartz presents an accessible mathematical model that allows armed professionals and lawfully-armed citizens to evaluate the terminal ballistic preformance of self-defense ammunition using water as a valid ballistic test medium. Based upon a modified fluid dynamics equation that correlates highly (r=+0.94) to more than 700 points of manufacturer-and laboratory-test data, the quantitative model allows the armed professional to generate ballistic test results equivalent to those obtaines in calibrated 10 percent ordnance gelatin. Using data generated from water test, the quantitative model accurately predicts the permanent wound cavity volume and mass, terminal penetration depth, and exit velocity of handgun projectiles as these phenomena would occur in calibrated 10 percent ordnance gelatin and soft tissue. A retired law enforcement professional, Schwartz provides a concise explanation of the relevant principles of mechanics, fluid dynamics, and thermodynamics pertaining to the model and its derivation. The quantitative model is clearly presented with illustrated computational examples that provide guidance to the armed professional in every aspect of the model's application.

This is a straightforward, no-nonsense instructional book on pistolshooting; specifically competition practical pistol-shooting. Its take-no prisoners style holds nothing back, and eliminates any guess-work related to which techniques work and which ones are outdated. The best way to shoot is using the Isosceles Stance, fact or myth? What about the press-out technique? According to Professor Roger H. Lincoln, there are two rules for success in life: 1. Never tell everything you know. 2. Never tell everything all at once. In this book, Ben Stoeger laughs in the face of this great entrepreneur. Top shooters share a common knowledge which they have collected over the years from a plethora of sources; a knowledge that, in its whole, is far from common to the average shooter in that it is scattered. In this book, the top shooters such as Bob Vogel, Dave Sevigny, and Matt Mink collaborate with the author, Ben Stoeger, to compile the so-called "Grand Master secrets" into one location. The knowledge spans from marksmanship fundamentals to shooting on the move, and competition skills such as stage breakdown and managing match pressure. Finally, this book contains many little tips, drills, and exercises to help you improve your shooting.
