When the lights go out and the small conveniences you took for granted become precious, you want a sidearm that is stubborn, simple, and forgiving. I built this book from the kind of rainy, dusty, inconvenient nights that teach you more than a fancy spec sheet.
This is not theory, it is field-proven advice, written with the kind of hard detail that helps you choose, carry, maintain, and use a Ruger GP100 when it matters most.Inside you will find:
- Clear, no-nonsense guidance on choosing the right GP100 variant for your life, from barrel length to grips and sights.- A realistic ammunition plan that balances training, defense, storage and barter value.
- Holster, carry, and retention strategies that actually work in wet weather, long hikes, and crowded shelters.
- Step-by-step field fixes, a compact parts kit that won't weigh down your pack, and maintenance routines you will actually do.
- Practical tactics, low-light techniques, reload choreography with speedloaders, and family-friendly training plans that build competence, not ego.
If you want gear that earns its place in a long disruption, and a plan you can teach to someone you trust, this book is for you. Honest, folksy, and specific, it puts a dependable wheelgun in the center of a household plan that works. Pick it up, read the checklists, practice the drills, and let the GP100 become the steady part of your preparedness.
