Good but blurry
Good book, but unlike the rifle version with crisp clean pictures it has blurry photos. Not too huge of a deal but odd considering the quality of the rifle version.

Useful for a limited market
This book is great if you want to be a marine and use a m92 pistol, then this is your book. If your a civilian shooter, this book has very little info for you. I skipped the first two chapters completely. The rest have very basic usable info. If your gonna join the Marines and want a head start to marksmanship, this is your book.

Truly a beginners guide to pistols
So the info in this book is an excellent foundation to build on however after reading it I found that for the most part this book is for beginners. Those who have safely trained to use handguns will not find much new information here. Though there were some good reminders in it. In short, excellent for beginners and a decent but not entirely necessary quick review for experienced handgun shooters.
