Rating:  Summary: The only advantage of the day... Review: ...during times like we have now, to understand the fundamental principles along with the descriptive techniques amply illustrated in this rendition of literary substance, is a must for those serious in standing in the gap of our nation's threatened freedom......long have we been a target of opportunity, waiting for someone to take advantage as this nation has offered them ample targets of opportunity, and now, to wake up, realizing the profoundness of "freedom from fear", we desperately need to return to our very roots in winning our ongoing stuggle for what's been taken for granted for too long... ...not only for the counter-terrorist operative who may be involved in clandestine activities at home and abroad, but for the legitimate vigilante who's aware that the threat is as close as the next person who passes him on the street, the reader will find a wealth of information from which to launch his own credible and effective efforts of defending and/or protecting his own interests, either reactively or proactively... ...such information, as clearly presented in this book, should be in the library of every person who's aware that our way of life will remain so as long as there are those willing to turn the negative effects of man's inhumanity against man into a positive and consuming lesson of ethics and morality for any and all who may think that America is weak and ripe for the picking...and these lessons are from the inevitable school of hard knocks, magnified as only we Americans are capable of rendering in times of atrocities visited upon us... ...most excellent presentation of preparation and execution of matters that most would find reprehensible...
Rating:  Summary: The only advantage of the day... Review: This is THE best book on the subject with the USMC S/S manual only half a step behind. SOTIC contains a more thorough review of mechanics, ballistics calculation and trajectory theory. As for the gentleman who wrote a review on 26 April 2000"The real deal folks", I agree with his thoughts on the book. However, Mr. A Reader, I would appreciate you telling me and the world what "sniper" team you operated with in the Special Forces- being that there are no sniper teams in the organizational echelon. You must be thinking of the USMC. There are however SOTIC trained individuals(usually 18B) who can collaborate with the A team(s) and/or operate independently. If you were in fact on an A/B/C TEAM, what might that teams organizational designation be? One more bit of information for all of you RESPECTFUL enthusiasts of Special Operations: the SF, SEAL's, PJ's, or any other USSOCOM units are not considered "black organizations".
Rating:  Summary: Good information but very poorly laid out for free stuff Review: This manual contains valid and useful information but is very poorly laid out. The table of contents and the index contain not one single page listing, Duh! Additionally all the figures are at the end of the chapter, hand drawn, hand written figure numbers or just plan missing. But the kicker is this and most of the sniper/target interdiction books are available in pdf format for free. Contact me at my email address. This is so typcial of the publishers Paladin Press, Delta Press, etc.

Rating:  Summary: Excellent for the basics Review: This manual was well written, concise, and without opinion. The manual, written at fifth grade level is easy to understand though the pictures and diagrams leave much to be desired. Great range estimation chapter! Definate recommended reading.
