Urban Firearms: How To Own a Gun and Stay Out of Jail

Friday, February 23, 2007

This book by John Mactinger is a classic:

It's easy-to-read and has a tonload of very useful information for gunowners in California.

Welcome!

Welcome to my blog! Thanks for dropping by!How do people in Los Angeles, New York, Chicago and other major cities train --- in an environment that is not conducive to firearms training. There are fewer training facilities in the city and for some reason, there is more of an anti-gun sentiment that deters a person to practice. It's not like being in the sparsely-populated desert communities in Arizona or the rural settings of Vermont. This website is operated by Ruperto, who is a firearms instructor of Be Safe Gun Training, which is located in the Los Angeles suburb of Torrance, California.

Why Many Guns Aren't Right

Many guns are not right for people in general, for many different reasons, and women in particular have characteristics that make certain guns inappropriate for them. That is why there is a need for this book --- to help you sift through all the guns that are not right for you in order to select the guns that do make sense for your needs.

Here are reasons why many guns available in the marketplace aren’t right for many (but not all) women:

1. Most handguns are sized for the average American man, who are generally larger than women, with larger hands and longer fingers. That applies to both the grip size, where the most obvious size issue crops up, and to the overall size of the gun.

2. Some handguns have a heavy trigger pull that is too much for many women who might not have the finger strength required to press the trigger.

3. The springs and tensions of semi-automatic pistols require hand and finger strength that many, if not most, women do not possess. For example, it is extremely difficult for most women to manually load the last few rounds of a magazine for a major caliber pistol. In fact, it is difficult for many women to load even the fourth and fifth round of a magazine.

4. Most women typically have a difficult time with the recoil of a major caliber pistol.

5. Some guns require more training and expertise to operate than what a large percentage of women are willing to acquire.

Keep in mind that although there are many guns that aren’t appropriate for you, there are many that are.

It’s a matter of educating yourself about what goes into the selection of the right gun for you!
