Publisher's Synopsis
Whether you are a police officer dispatched to an 'Armed Robbery in Progress' call, a driver facing an armed and out-of-control road rage motorist, or a shopper accosted by someone with a pistol while walking to your parked car, a 'Man with a Gun' is one of the most dangerous scenarios anyone can face.This book lays out the facts for you, based on extensive research and analysis of thousands of actual events as compiled by local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies.Patterns and commonalities emerge that paint a picture of survival-- or death-- based on your application of the information learned in this book.The author is a retired Police Major who spent many years as a street patrol officer, and later as Director of Training for a large city police department. Under his development and direction, thousands of police officers underwent an intensive and realistic Armed Confrontation Training (ACT) Program that helped them develop skills that allowed them survive situations in which other officers were killed in real life.Hopefully, you will never have to deal with an armed person. But if it happens, and you want to dramatically increase your chances of walking away alive, then you owe it to yourself and your family to read this book.
