TTAG readers are probably familiar with R.K. Campbell’s byline, which has appeared for many years, at the TheGunMag.com, along with other periodicals including Concealed Carry Magazine, Police Magazine, Gun Tests, Law and Order, SWAT Magazine Gun Tests Magazine, American Gunsmith, and Black Belt.
A prolific gun writer, Campbell has published 16 books and more than 6,000 magazine articles, reviews and columns, and now he’s penned a new book, available on Kindle, titled “The Millennial’s Guide Personal Defense: A Guide to The Gun, The Knife, the Open Hand and Avoiding Trouble.”
Campbell’s new book includes chapters on handguns, holsters, combat shooting, knives, open hand defense and escalation of force (the “force continuum”). It is definitely not just another “gun book.”
Readers will also find a chapter on the adversary, his background and who he is likely to be, plus chapters on handling and treating gunshot wounds and home defense. As Campbell says, “The gun isn’t there to keep you from getting your ass whipped. It is a last resort.”
He further maintains that if you’re using a real firearm instead of a Ring’s or ASP fake gun during retention training, “you are a damn idiot.”
“It is pretty interesting,” says Campbell, “to see articles by those who have no fighting experience, no experience in emergency situations, who have never felt the slap of a fist, felt a kick or suffered an attack tell you how to save your life.”
