Summary

In Revolver Doctrine, you'll learn virtually all aspects of living with the double-action revolver: shooting, handling, carrying, maintaining and accessorizing. Whether you're new to shooting, or just to the revolver, this book will teach you what you need to know to operate the quintessential American handgun: why the revolver is a good choice for self defense; how to fit the revolver to your hands; which grips work (and which don't); the various ways of carrying spare ammunition (and the situations where one is better than another); how to clean and maintain your wheelgun; sighting options (and what to do if your eyes aren't as young as they used to be); holster options; how to pick ammunition for practice, competition or defense; the secrets of sight adjustment; performing fast and efficient reloads appropriate to the situation; and even what malfunctions can occur and how to clear them rapidly and efficiently. These are optimized procedures for using the revolver, not warmed-over autoloader techniques! Whether your revolver is used for sport, hunting, or self defense, you'll learn something from this book.
