 Great note taking Apr 29, 2008
Being a note taker myself I fully appreciate Tiger's method. I do this in my classes and this way I can feed off of someone else's experience. Fantastic idea, who cares about the misspelling, you should see my notes. The real treasure is in the text, his ideas behind etc. Spend $25.00 on the book or spend $10,000 and take the classes and read the books that have exerts in this book. Then you can make your own note, or do both but the book has a place on anyone's bookshelf who is defensive firearm minded.
Maybe the best "beyond the basics" shooting book Apr 15, 2008
Getting instructional information on practical shooting from a book is pretty hard. It is a "hands on thing" and there is no way of escaping this. But, Tiger McKee makes a good job of it here. The book is basically his observations from taking classes from and teaching practical rifle and pistol marksmanship for many years. There is a lot of interesting "mindset" and psychology of combat information up front that I really liked. Then the book gets down to business and covers various shooting, malfunction and tactical drills. While the book is mostly about the 1911 pistol and the AR carbine most of the skills will apply to any rifle/pistol combo. If you read and then practiced what he says you will learn much faster than just practicing on your own. Some people might not like the format, basically the book looks like a classroom notebook, hand written and all, but I think it's pretty clever.

If you carry or just own a firearm for self-defence this book is a must.It is more than just training by putting ammo downrange.It's about the attitude you need to come out on top. It makes you think.

Worth every penny Jun 10, 2007
This is the very best practical firearms fighting book I have ever read. Anyone who reads through it and says it is of no use to them is a liar or a fool and best avoided. Listening to those arm chair commandos is nothing but trouble and a waste of time. Anyone with realistic expectations picking this book up won't be disappointed but should know what it is. It is a trainers notes, something he had written for himself from the years of training he has gone through. It is what works for him and may work for you. No where in the book does he push a certain technique or tell you one way of doing something is far superior to another. He clearly says that there are many ways to do something and what works for one person might not work for the other. Reading this book isn't going to make you an expert gun fighter any more than reading the crib notes for Shakespeare is going to make you a Literature Professor. I've seen some reviews talking about the lack of `teamwork' in this book. If you think you can learn real teamwork from a book to begin with this book may not be for you. Having been to the Shootrite Academy I can tell you that the three things you will learn are to move, shoot and communicate. And while it might be up to you to pull the trigger the classes are as much about communicating and working as a team and they are about marksmanship and mindset. I can highly recommend this book with no reservations what so ever.
