Just read an article in "American Hunter" on revolver hunting and those pictures and arguement against muzzle energy looked awefully familiar! Was that you that authored the article??

Very nice! Interesting to find out you're authoring a book. I'll have to keep my eyes peeled for its release! Great article, by the way!

Thank you, Brandon! I appreciate the kind words! Amazon and Barnes & Noble are already pre-selling it for a few months. The release date is October 3.......finally!

Cheers buddy, It's just a pain in the 'arris that we can't have handguns ( except under certain conditions) in the UK.

KimR has promised to lend me a handgun for the AR hunt if it happens, I need to read up on them!

Finding a revolver for you to use on the hunt shouldn't be a problem in the least!

Putting together an Amazon order now (including the new book preorder!). Any suggestions for other good handgun hunting books to pick up. I've an upcoming vacation in July in which I plan on doing little more than grill things, drink beer, and read.

Whitworth

Brandon, first of all, thanks! I appreciate you buying it!

Let me think about good books a bit and I'll get back to you. A general dissatisfaction with available reading material sort of lead to me writing this book.

I know of one person who got their book yesterday -- but that wouldn't be me because someone forgot to send me a copy from my publishing company.....

Just a random thought, but why don't you get a "few" copies of your book and offer them autographed for AR members.

You could even write some "choice" remarks with you autograph, for some of the "choice" members that might order one...

Actually, at the suggestion of my publishing company, I will personally sell signed copies as it will simplify matters for those who actually want a signed copy. But that is about a week or so out -- still waiting for my copies!
