Gun Law Book Review

I just had the opportunity to review the book, 2012 Gun Laws By State, available at http://www.gunlawsbystate.com. This is the best comprehensive overview I've read. It is written in plain English, you don't need a law degree to understand it. There are a lot of excellent references to where to find additional information, which is good since the laws are changing every year. I plan to keep a copy nearby whenever I teach a class to help answer questions. I recommend this for anyone who is looking to carry or transport a firearm outside of their home.

It is available as a download .pdf version or a hard copy book. Of interest, to me at least, the soft copy is key word searchable!

Book Review - My Parents Open Carry

http://www.myparentsopencarry.com

Brian Jeffs and Nathan Nephew, with delightful illustrations by Lorna Bergman, wrote a book called My Parents Open Carry, available at the link above.  The offered two autographed copies in support of National Take Your Daughter to the Range Day. 

I read the book and it offers an easy to understand description of open carry, the 2nd Ammendment rights and the Unorganized Militia.  It provides thoughtful answers to the questions many have about why someone would open carry as opposed to concealed. 

It is written in easy to understand language suitable for tweens and older.  While there was one or two points I didn't entirely agree with, there were many that I did, and even I learned something reading it.  I live in a state that allows open carry but have always carried concealed.  After reading this book, I'm giving more thought to open carry.

Would I share it with a tween?  Absolutely!  I think it may be a little too much for a younger child, but it offers some interesting thoughts and answers on the idea of open carry, why someone would want to and how to handle those who may question or be fearful.

Enjoy the book!
