“When it’s least expected, you’re elected.”
John Farnam travels the world, teaching firearms skills to the military, law enforcement and other interested citizens. I’ve had the good fortune of getting to participate in John’s classes for about a decade now, and so have seen his techniques evolve over the years. This book is the latest compilation of his teachings.
John has refined and augmented his book “The Farnam Method of Defensive Handgunning” in this second edition with lots of new material and photos. One would expect topics such as safety and gun handling to be covered in a defensive firearms book, and they are. However, John also covers the moral and ethical consequences of defensive firearms use and the important aspects of interacting with the police and the judicial system. Also discussed in depth are handgun operating systems, administrative and tactical operations for each system, ammunition performance, and more.
If you’re looking for a text that covers about everything to do with defensive shooting, this is the one book you need to have on your bookshelf.
