3.0 out of 5 stars Layman Introduction to SUPPRESSORS..., February 5, 2012
This review is from: Silencers, Snipers, And Assassins (Paperback)
This is a very dated book on the evolution, history, production and employment of sound suppressors (AKA Silencers). This book presents some pretty interesting historical facts but is light on foot noting sources. So by no means is this an academic text, however this does not distract from it being a fun open minded read, were I am sure one will find some "gold nuggets" of information. Although if you are looking for something a little more academic and professional I would jump on the two volume set by Paulson; "Silencer: History and Performance, Volume 1: Sporting and Tactical Silencers" and "Silencer History and Performance, Volume 2: CQB, Assualt Rifles and Sniper Technology."
