You Can't Miss is the most comprehensive book
ever devoted to practical handgun shooting.
Written by twice-IPSC National ChampionJohn
Shaw, You Can't Miss is a Master combat
shooter's book of trade secrets, a system for
learning the art of practical shooting,
"Using the system he developed, John Shaw became
the U.S. Champion twice and leader of the U.S. Gold
Team. He wasn't a super athlete with golden hair, either.
John Shaw is the champion you can be."
M....d F. Ayoob, author
In The Gravest Extreme
"John Shaw is indisputably blessed with a great natural
talent, which accounts in part for the explosive manner
in which he has dominated combat competition. The
rest? Hard practice and the personally worked out
innOvative technique described in his book.
Bill Jord.n, firearms authority
and author of
No Second Place Winner
"There are many excellent shooters, but few possess
the rare ability to pass this skill on to others. John has
the ability.

Safari Arms' Enforcer is
'a beautiful little gun'
Shortly after your (Len Davis) letter of
April 5, and our phone conversation a
few days later, I received a beautiful
brochure from the Safari Arms factory
and a note from Dianne Cochran She
asked my preference in matenal and
finish and promised delivery of my
sweepstakes pnze in 60 to 90 days.
My Enforcer arrived last week. I can
only say that my anticipation and
impatience were well rewarded. As you
said on the phone, it is indeed a
beautiful little gun I went that evening
to a local indoor range for sighting-in.
It is also a pleasu re to shoot
