5.0 out of 5 stars New 2005 revised edition, December 29, 2004

Training Director (CA, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Raids: A Tactical Guide to High Risk Warrant Service (Paperback)

RAIDS was first published in 1991 but has recently been totally revised and up-dated to better reflect changes in STTU tactics and terminology for Raid planning and operations.

The January 2005 edition of RAIDs is outwardly the same (except the cover has "revised 2" under the title) but there are many changes to the text and operational checklists.

RAIDS is essential reading for anyone involved in law enforcement raid or high risk warrant operations or training.

5.0 out of 5 stars Raid training at its very best, November 4, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Raids: A Tactical Guide to High Risk Warrant Service (Paperback)

Raids and CQB are used by us as training manuals and text books. It is the best all round book on the subject of high risk warrant service and the related training. The author has obviously had extensive experience in this aspect of tactical law enforcement. The diagrams and checklists are invaluable. Well done......looking forward to the next one.

4.0 out of 5 stars Raids!, January 14, 2003

Mike "xfjs" (Sweden/Thailand) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Raids: A Tactical Guide to High Risk Warrant Service (Paperback)

Well, this is a good book on how to conduct a "Raid". All you need to know from planning to execution, entry tactics and more. I think this is a good book for police officers (especially for the planning section).
If you never have done this kind of work it could sometimes be hard too understand everything , but Mr Londsdale also write in the foreward that he will not explain everything. But if you buy this book togheter with "Advanced weapons training for HRT" you got most of it covered. I recommend these 2 books. I also recommend "Tactical Advantage" by Gabriel Suarez.
