 Posted: Fri Jan 11, Post subject: Ed McGivern's Book of Fast and Fancy Revolver Shooting |
 |
|
This is an amazing compilation of a lifetime spent asking...what would happen if...
McGivern spent a lifetime training, experimenting and demonstrating the possibilities with a sidearm. He was an extraordinary exhibition shooter but much of this book focuses on training law enforcement officers.
The writing style is typical of the period - very descriptive. Reminds my of epic poetry (i.e. Virgil's Aeneid).
Not just a book for revolver shooters. McGivern covers a wide range of topics and most are not related to the type of firearm - i.e. gun control laws, law enforcement training, sight picture, trigger control, modifying firearms, carry positions, etc...
There are "pearls of wisdom" in every chapter, if not every few pages. Some of sections, gun control laws for example, are very relevant today and give you the sense that not much has changed in the last 70 years. |
