Product Description:
Second Volume in Massad Ayoob's series on Gunfighting for Police: Advanced Tactics and Techniques.
Average Rating: 
Rating:
- What works and what doesn't: a textbook on shotgun techniques"Stressfire II: Advanced Combat Shotgun" is a book on equipment and techniques. Massad Ayoob explains the difference in Chapter 24, and writes that "Stressfire II" is a book of technique-not tactics.
I was fortunate enough to read this book when it first came out in 1992. One concept that hit me in the face was that the shotgun was "heavy artillery."

- Good informationSolid information on use of the combat/tactical shotgun. Follows the same concepts set forth in the original "Stressfire" handgun techniques.

- A good one for those who carry.Stressfire is an excellent follow up to Ayoob's In the Gravest Exreme. In Stressfire, he covers practical methods of all aspects of gun fighting from drawing from the holster to confrontations on stairs. He takes the best of several styles and blends them into a cohesive style that anyone can use. What I liked in particular, he justifies to the reader why he does things differently from others. He points out the strengths and weaknesses of different styles and allows the reader to pick what works ... Read More
