Book Review: A Primer for the Law Abiding Gun Owner
Summary: 5 Stars
Coyotes don't tangle with wolves, wolves don't tangle with sheep dogs, and all three are wary of cornered cats. In the land of two legged predators and victims, the criteria for being a "sheepdog" or "cat" (i.e., not "victim") are mindset, attitude and preparedness. However, in addition to mindset, most animal species are anatomically equipped with effective tools (e.g., fangs, claws, strength, size, speed, etc.) to defend themselves against dangerous predators. Unarmed, most humans are not. Firearms can even the odds.
Mark Walter's and Kathy Jackson's "Lessons from Armed America" is an essential primer on self preservation and both authors are uniquely qualified to write this book. Kathy Jackson is the creator [...] and the Managing Editor of Concealed Carry Magazine ([...]). Mark Walters is the host of Armed American Radio ([...]) and the column editor for "The Ordinary Guy" column of Concealed Carry Magazine.
One fateful day, you may have to defend your life or the life of a loved one against a deadly assault. Jackson and Walters provide the essential information you need to begin making intelligent, common-sense preparations for that uninvited possibility. The formula is simple. Guns are good because in the hands of good people, guns save lives. However, owning a gun for defensive purposes and having a concealed carry permit require proper education. Reading this book is an important first step because there are many lessons that must be learned by those who choose to go armed. This book teaches those lessons and that's why I am recommending that my defensive handgun students read this book.
