Richard Allen Mann 
Handgun Training for Personal Protection 
How to Choose & Use the Best Sights, Lights, Lasers & Ammunition

The handgun is no longer a product purchased and used in an unaltered state. A vast assortment of accessories, including high performance sights, weapon lights and laser aiming devices have not only enhanced the handgun, they have changed the methodology and mindset of personal protection.

In Handgun Training for Personal Protection: How to Choose & Use the Best Sights, Lights, Lasers & Ammunition, the first comprehensive book of its kind, shooting expert Richard A. Mann explores the world of these exciting advances and what they mean to your self-defense practices.

Inside you’ll find:

• How lasers, lights and sights are valuable in a defensive situation.


• Techniques for training with lasers, lights and sights that develop and reinforce effective use of the handgun in a defensive situation.


• A comprehensive explanation of sighting tool functionality.


• Information on the latest equipment options.

Along the way, common misconceptions are corrected, and often neglected topics are explained. This book will become your go-to reference.’ ~Il Ling New, Gunsite Instructor

‘You will read it again and again, as your defensive ability and understanding grow. Take it to heart; it just might save your life.’ ~Sheriff Jim Wilson, Senior Field Editor, NRA Publications
