Prep for Handguns
This is a good book to obtain if you are buying a handgun for the first time. It gives you an overview of all of the options and rational for choosing a handgun to fit your needs and goals. It helps you buy the right gun the first time, and you can,t take the gun back once you have purchased it.
 
Essential Guide is the standard!
I have met Bruce Eimer and thanked him for his book. His work is the standard, period. Start with this book then read David Kenik's book Armed Response and finish with On Combat by Lt. Col. Dave Grossman.
No book can replace training...... Find great training (reality based) from people like Clint Smith and Gabe Suarez and keep training from there.
 
Very Basic
I suppose it lives up to its title but, even for a novice like me, I found better information by just searching the internet.
 
A good general purpose book on owning a handgun
Like most books on the firearms, this one spends a lot of time on self-defense issues. I wasn't particularly interested in that topic but the book does offer a lot on safety, how to clean and maintain your firearms, and many of the issues relating to owning a firearm. The book touches on legal issues, scenerios to be aware of, and of course self-defense and practical concerns. A good basic book for beginner to intermediate skill levels, experts should probably look elsewhere.
 
Very Comprehensive book.
Very Comprehensive book.
It covers many aspects of owning a handgun, from actually using & maintaining one to some important aspects of what is allowed under the law.
I only wish the author included a few more diagrams to explain some basic concepts such as the difference in shape & sizes of various bullets and also when he described certain parts of a handgun.
All in all a 5 star book.
