Book Description

1995
The author has found that few of us, in our capacity as fathers, mothers, spouses, friends or citizens have much knowledge or experience carrying a concealed weapon designated for defense. This general lack of experience, training and knowledge can be a severe detriment in the daily practice of concealed carry. Concealed Carry - A Practical Guide is his contribution to this deficit and is intended as a guide to assist citizens in the tricky navigation they face once they choose to explore the journey from defenselessness to self defense. His carefully researched volume documents important and often overlooked aspects of concealed carry, self defense and the use of deadly force that are critical to the practice of concealed carry.


Editorial Reviews

From the Publisher

Bill Quinn has authored a book that has generated considerable interest on a topic of great practical concern to many Americans.

From the Author

My experience as a Private Investigator has taught me that few of us, in our capacity as fathers, mothers, spouses, friends or citizens have much knowledge or experience carrying a concealed weapon designated for defense. This is not something we have had the opportunity or means to practice on a regular basis - until now. This general lack of experience, training and knowledge can be a severe detriment in the daily practice of concealed carry. My text is intended to provide a pragmatic explanation of the dynamics and controversies surrounding concealed carry and deadly force as well as a better understanding of the personal, equipment, and technological aspects of concealed carry.

5.0 out of 5 stars Timely, info-packed & insightful...a "must-read.", March 30, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Concealed carry: A practical guide (Paperback)
More than a guide, this information-packed volume provides insight into the legal and political. Author Bill Quinn, a private investigator in Alaska (the last frontier) knows his stuff. Gun buffs, lawyers, peace officers, and anyone considering carrying a concealed handgun should read "Concealed Carry: A practical guide." Readers looking for just the nuts and bolts of obtaining a permit and carrying concealed finally have an up-to-date and non-technical source of information. But for those interested, the book goes beyond the basics and discusses a multitude of issues connected to concealed carry. The writing has a well-researched, matter-of-fact feel, and the information is organized for quick-reference. The carrying of concealed handguns is controversial, but readers on both sides of the controversy will gain satisfaction and comfort from this book. "Concealed Carry" is, in itself, persuasive evidence that not all proponents of carrying concealed are nuts, and not all opponents of the same are knee-jerk pacifists. Amidst the fear-mongering on both sides of the debate, "Concealed Carry: A practical Guide," stands out as a rational and reliable source

4.0 out of 5 stars Concealed Carry A Practical Guide, February 4, 2009
This review is from: Concealed carry: A practical guide (Paperback)
Concealed Carry A Practical Guide
This book is filled with useful information for anyone considering concealed carry. It is easy to read and quickly gets to the point. Pretty much covers all of the subject areas including the philosophy of carrying a concealed weapon.
I would recommend it.
