3.0 out of 5 stars HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT , just not worth the money.
Although this book is well written, it provides almost no new usable info that I could not have gotten from a good holster dealer. About the only worth while thing was the two pages covering speed of draw for the different holsters and the list of holster makers at the end of the book. I was very surprised to find this book to be of so little use after having read the...

This book is a great source of information for the person who is contemplating carrying a concealed firearm. Almost every conceivable method is covered. A vast selection of holsters from an amazing number of manufacturers are pictured and dicussed. The author discusses the pros and the cons of the various products and methods of carry. The unique needs of women are not left out of this book. There is a section that discusses purses designed for carrying a firearm as well as on the body holsters made specifically for the female anatomy. Finally there is the most complete listing of holster manufacturers with their addresses and phone numbers that I have ever seen in one place. I recommend this book to all my students.

Although this book is well written, it provides almost no new usable info that I could not have gotten from a good holster dealer. About the only worth while thing was the two pages covering speed of draw for the different holsters and the list of holster makers at the end of the book. I was very surprised to find this book to be of so little use after having read the shining reviews published on it. Sorry peaple, it just is not worth the money unless you are totally unaware of what is avaible in the way of concealed carry holsters.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good beginner information, not much for more advanced learners, January 4, 2009
By 
Raptor (Omnipresent, The Universe) - See all my reviews
Hidden In Plain Sight contains many wonderful insights into concealed carry. It lays out all the options available for types of carry, each holsters advantages and disadvantages. Much of this information can be found around the internet, and people who have been around handguns a while may find this book lacking. That being said, this book provides an excellent starting point for those with little or no idea of how concealed carry works.

3.0 out of 5 stars A little dated MAYBE, January 11, 2012
This book reads like it was written a decade or more ago but I can't exactly tell you why it seems that way. The second "revised" edition, I SUSPECT, wasn't revised much. Still, for the price it's a good buy with useful info IF you have not carried long especially.

Although outdated, this book provides good information on options of carry for the beginner. You could find lots of the same information online, and on forums if you'd rather sit in front of the computer. I prefer to read a book than a computer screen.

This review is from: Hidden in Plain Sight: A Practical Guide to Concealed Handgun Carry (Paperback)
This is a must have book for any person who has decided to "carry". It is full of great tips, even for someone with years of experience "carrying". I do suggest this book should be in your library.
