Fantastic book about gunfighting one of the best books I've ever read about gunfighting, period. An absolute eye opener. Dispels some of the myths and bs about ballistics and so called stopping power. There is no such thing as a magic bullet or a substitute for accuracy under pressure.. Amazon Customer said Great book! Real modern gunfighter. Great book ! Real modern gunfighter.must read for any student of combat shooting. Five Stars Amazon Customer A great read about a larger than life man.

Since the publication of Guns, Bullets, and Gunfights in 1996, readers have pressed for a follow-up with more information on Jim Cirillo and his service with the New York City Police Department's Stakeout Unit. Cirillo also talks about his early years as a street cop and his service with the NYPD Emergency Service Unit; his successes as a lifelong competitive shooter; his distinguished career as a firearms trainer; his unique relationship with Jeff Cooper; his carry guns and the guns of the SOU; and much more. Kirchner draws on his extensive interviews with Cirillo, his family, friends, ex-partner Bill Allard and other SOU officers to create a vivid portrait of an affable and gregarious man who nonetheless was "the last man many armed robbers saw on this earth."In previously unpublished accounts, Cirillo describes in detail numerous stakeouts and sets the record straight about what he and the other SOU members actually accomplished on the streets of New York. Cirillo's unique voice and humor enliven every page, resulting in a fitting, lasting tribute to a legendary police officer, shooting instructor, gunfighter and raconteur.. That book is finally here.Author Paul Kirchner was working with Cirillo on this biography at the time of Jim's untimely death in 2007
