Informative,concise and entertaining. Buy it !

I'm a fan of Mullins.I found Testing the war weapons to be a great book,full of subtle information and a fun read.The 100 Greatest combat pistols is awsome,just an excellent book. Special operations weapons and tactics follows these classics in the same vein. Not as specific as some of his other work.Special operations, weapons and tactics, is a book that gives the reader insights (something that is a trademark of Mullins) and information not commonly found in other books on firearms and tactics. Mullin takes the reader through various chapters that range from firearms selection for various encounters to how to analyze the opponent from personal items and the number of loaded magazines they carry. Not a book on self appointed guru egomania,this book reflects on experiences that come from all types of military and LE operators.The resulting conclusions that follow give the reader the benefit of the lessons learned. Mr.Mullin goes over the situations that seperate the LE from the military operator and the situations that parallel the different sciences as well.He uses these comparisons to highlight different weapons and the need and use...or not,as it pertains to both of them. The book itself is very well constructed,hardback,with glossy pages and black and white photographs that compliment the chapters. I believe this to be really quite a lot of book in a modest package.Granted, it does touch on subjects,and doesnt really go into a great deal of detail.Still,the reader will find this book an exceptional find and a welcome addition to the tactical library.
