Tactical Pistolcraft for Protective Operations
A Real-World Guide for Concealed Carry & Armed Security
There is much confusion in the close protection industry as to the application of firearms. In this book I aim to dispel some of the myths and highlight the realities of the armed close protection and security industries. Also remember, you cannot learn to shoot by just reading books and watching videos, you need to actually go and shoot. This book can give you guidance and advice, but you must apply the advice in reality for it to actually be worth more than just being words on paper and thoughts in your head.

Over the last 20-years the close protection industry was somewhat hijacked and has been focused on those doing overt PSD work in Iraq and Afghanistan. The situations in Iraq and Afghanistan were quite unique in the application of private security personnel and I doubt if we will see such situations again, on such a scale in the future. Also, providing PSD services in Iraq and Afghanistan is very different from the realities of the commercial close protection business on the terms of tactics, weapons, laws, and rules of engagement.

The close protection industry is one that has been highly glamourized, but the truth is a lot of those promoting the Gucci courses and services have little, if any actual close protection experience, armed or unarmed. People also seem to forget that most close protection jobs are unarmed due to the fact that the ownership and carrying of firearms is very restricted in most countries.

In this book I aim to dispel some of the myths and highlight the realities of working armed. I am sure some of what I have written will upset more than just a few people. But my perspective is from over 35 years international experience of dealing with firearms commercially for defensive purposes. My perspectives are not those of a career cop or soldier whose main concern is getting brownie points and their pensions, or of the sports shooter, gun enthusiast or scammer out to make some quick cash. Firearms to me are business. A tool that I employ to make money… And the close protection business is about making money and also staying alive to spend it…
