Here are a number of books which provide a lot of information on concealed
carry and the physiological and psychological effects of post shooting trauma.
****In the Gravest Extreme: The Role of the Firearm by Massad F.
Ayoob (1980) $11.95
The modern classic book that AMERICAN HANDGUNNER calls
"must reading for anyone who owns a firearm for self defense." This
best seller is widely acclaimed by cops, lawyers, and judges as the ultimate
guide to the use of a gun's deadly force at the ultimate level of self
protection. Numerous lawyers have said that they learned more about self defense
law from this book than they did in law school. Often imitated but never
equaled, In The Gravest Extreme tells it like it is, and prepares you to protect
you and yours against criminal violence without being crucified for it in court.
Anti-gunners call it "a guide on how to kill criminals and get away with
it," but men like Lt. Frank McGee, former head of firearms training for New
York City Police Department, say it's "must reading" for anyone who
keeps a gun for self defense. Welcome to the reality of the street in a book
that also makes a memorable gift to anyone who keeps a gun in their home. 130
pgs, illust., softcover.
