Download or read book Building a Better Gunfighter written by Richard Fairburn and published by Paladin Press. This book was released on 2010-10-01 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Dick Fairburn just might have written the definitive work on gunfighting. Not just about fighting, mind you, but on how to create a gunfighter. It's all here: mindset, tactics, and techniques . . . everything but the individual willingness to training and practice." ——Dave Spaulding, 2010 Law Enforcement Trainer of the Year, and author of Handgun Combatives and Defensive Living "I strongly recommend that you not just read but study and apply this excellent book." ——Dave Grossman, author of On Killing and On Combat It is not enough to just have a gun—it is also vital to be trained in the proper use of that weapon. That is what this book is all about. A veteran law enforcement officer and firearms trainer for more than 30 years, Richard Fairburn trained under the legendary Col. Jeff Cooper at Gunsite and Clint Smith at Thunder Ranch, and has all available NRA instructor certifications. In Building a Better Gunfighter, Fairburn has turned his remarkable skills toward teaching you to properly employ a firearm in combat. Fairburn's three-part training model is based on the three "Ms:" marksmanship, mechanics, and mindset. While this in itself is not unique, the cyclic system of training through all three Ms at a low level of competence before starting all over again with shorter time frames, tougher targets, and more realistic force-on-force scenarios is. The result is one of the finest gunfighter training resources available. The principles taught in this book apply equally to police officers, soldiers, and citizens alike. If you are a concerned citizen who chooses to go armed, for reasons of personal protection or as a part of your chosen profession, this book is for you. For if you choose to go armed, you must also choose to be competent in the use of your weapons, as well as being physically and mentally prepared for the rigors of personal combat. This book will assist you in that training.

Download or read book Winning a High Speed Close Distance Gunfight written by Lou M. Chiodo and published by Paladin Press. This book was released on 2009-01-01 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A firearms training program geared for the high-speed, close-distance conditions of a real gunfight needs to be about fighting, not just shooting. Former U.S. Marine and California Highway Patrol veteran Lou Chiodo recognizes this fact, and Winning a High-Speed, Close-Distance Gunfight outlines the fundamentals of his reality-based program – one that enjoys one of the highest police officer survival ratings in the country. During his police service, Chiodo realized that standard firearm qualification courses do not prepare officers to face the high-stress environment that they experience in real gunfights – multiple-round, rapid-fire engagements at danger-close distances, often in low light. He studied survival stress and confrontation dynamics from all angles and used his findings to develop the training methods outlined in this book. Through innovative ranges and drills that replicate the conditions of actual street engagements, along with a radical but surprisingly simple retooling of firearm qualification courses, Chiodo shows how you can achieve true combat accuracy when the bullets are flying for real. Whether you are a police officer, firearms instructor or armed citizen, Winning a High-Speed, Close-Distance Gunfight will help you evaluate your present program and adopt useful training methods to prepare for real-life armed confrontations. Read this valuable book and start training to fight, not just to shoot.

Rifle Marksmanship, a Marine Corps Reference Publication, provides techniques and procedures for Marine Corps rifle marksmanship. Every Marine is first and foremost a rifleman.
