Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Too many kids with guns are driving up violent crime rates and needless firearm deaths. What can we do about it? This book contains over two dozen solutions that will reduce firearm deaths without invoking the wrath of the U.S. Supreme Court, or violating anyone’s second amendment gun rights. Many only require a signature. There are an estimated 50 million Gun owners in the United States. Taking everyone’s guns away is neither practical, nor legal. Gun buy-backs do not reduce crime. Defunding police does not work. Guin laws are ignored by criminals. This book is neither pro-gun, nor anti-gun. It explores the experiences, the statistics, and the impact of various gun control strategies that have been used globally as well as within individual States. Much of what we are doing has already been proven to be ineffective in other countries. Some strategies do work & where statistics support these approaches, this book expands on them in detail. The author has also injected a few personal suggestions and insights into the problems of trying to control guns by mandates, rather than by using voluntary measures, which produce a better result with less government intrusion. In the end, the author proposes five major initiatives that can substantially reduce overall crime and death or injury from firearms.

Book excerpt: Touted by arms producers and designers world-wide as the finest combat handgun ever made, the Czech Model 754 pistol is in a class of its own. It is the most widely copied autoloading pistol in existence -- rivalled only by the legendary US war-horse, the Colt .45. The book opens with a brief but complete historical perspective, beginning with Czechoslovakian rifles introduced in the early 1900s and progressing through submachine guns, machine guns, and automatic pistols and revolvers, from the CZ Model 1927 to the CZ Model 1950. This is followed by an in-depth discussion of the early- and late-model CZ-75s, as well as the newest addition to the Czech pistol family -- the Czech army's newly adopted CZ-82 service pistol and the current-model CZ-85. Also included are a sneak preview of the upcoming CZ-90 line and a look at the exciting line-up of CZ-75 clones.
