Review
""A must for those looking to carry a concealed handgun." --"The Second Amendment Foundation Reporter""
""Through Chris Bird's significant journalistic talents, the reader meets numerous gun owners, and learns why they carry a defensive firearm. A good number of Bird's anecdotes concern women and how they came to carry a gun. Expect stories about female stalking survivors, women who used cunning and courage to emerge unscathed from home burglaries, survivors of infamous shoot-outs and more." --Gila Hayes, " Women & Guns
""These are all things you need to know to cope with the emotions that overwhelm you in such a situation. He also shows what can go wrong and how the consequences may not be what you expect. If you wear a gun, this is a book you can't afford not to read." --Bill Clede, " American Guardian Magazine
""Although intended to show readers how to choose, carry, and shoot a gun in self-defense, it does much more. The final chapter gives an excellent overview for each state's concealed carry laws. I use it in my CWP class to help with questions about laws in other states." --H. Richard Daniel, president, Gun Owners of South Carolina"
""The book explores all aspects and ramifications of carrying a concealed firearm. In addition to shooting instruction and guidance as to when it would be necessary to fire a gun in self-defense, the book also recounts many real-life events. This is an extremely useful guide for those who want to learn more about the world of concealed carry." --Michael O. Humphries, " American Rifleman
""Chris Bird's text on this important subject is thorough and expert. Highly recommended!" --John Farnam, president, Defense Training International"
"""A really good book for someone who is not sure if they want to carry. It definitely fills a need." --Former Senator Jerry Patterson""
" Chris Bird goes beyond the usual hardware and into the critical software: the ethics, the morality, the emotional and psychological elements of preparation, survival, and aftermath in a way that gives his book the third dimension of depth. I would recommend" The Concealed Handgun Manual "for the library of anyone who goes armed in public. Massad Ayoob, director, Lethal Force Institute, and author, " The Gun Digest Book of Concealed Carry"
"" A really good book for someone who is not sure if they want to carry. It definitely fills a need. Former Senator Jerry Patterson"""
