Pistol People - Why Buy Essential Guide to Handguns Firearm Instruction for Personal Defense and Protection

Why should you spend your hard-earned $25 on Steve's book?

If you are a regular at Pistol People, then there is absolutely no need for you to read this web page, for you already believe in Steve Rementer, in his techniques and in how he teaches them. Chances are that you own a signed copy of his book, Essential Guide to Handguns - Firearm Instruction for Personal Defense and Protection. We need not consume any more of your valuable time. We would merely be preaching to our own choir.

The rest of you who are responsible law-abiding adults who either already own handguns or are considering introducing them into your lives should STRONGLY consider reading the rest of the page. We know that you demand quality, well-founded information from credible and competent instructors. We believe that Steve's book is an invaluable resource that will benefit you and your loved ones.

Stephen Rementer is a thirty-year Philadelphia Police Veteran who has "been there and done that." Besides serving with the S.W.A.T. team and the Bomb Disposal Unit during his career, he was a member of the department's competitive pistol team and a police firearms instructor. He recently learned to dress himself. On certain special occasions he has been known to walk and chew gum at the same time.

But do these facts alone qualify him to be the instructor that you and your family should rely upon for their firearms training? After all excelling at one's profession does not necessarily make one an excellent instructor. And can't almost anybody pass a test and proclaim themselves a certified instructor without having taught a soul? The success of a teacher can only be measured by the success of his students. What about that?

Steve Rementer

He will gladly teach you how to better protect yourself and to enjoy yourself in the process.

Over the last twenty years Steve has developed and honed his teaching methods. He has successfully tutored thousands, from the totally uninitiated to the seasoned competitor. And while this may sound impressive, he reminds us that what IS impressive is his students' accomplishments. It is routine for both male and female clientele walking in off the street who have no experience with handguns to be grouping shots within the 10-ring before they leave the range. A number of his students continue to shoot competitively, winning guns, money and national recognition.

This is Leigh.

Leigh's father just had Steve teach Leigh how to shoot a handgun for the first time.

This is Leigh's target.
He fired 25 rounds at it himself from 21 feet away using a Glock 40 caliber.

'Nuff said

Now at this point you may very well be muttering to yourself, "Okay, fine. That's all good. He was a cop on elite details. He is an outstanding firearms instructor with great students. A full body massage should sound so good. But he usually teaches in person. How does all of this translate into Steve being able to write a book about handguns that I will want to read and be able to understand?"

We wish we had thought to ask such an poignant question. The answer is simple. Steve writes like he talks. He went to extraordinary lengths to ensure that his teaching personality is reflected accurately in his written words. Reading the text he writes is like listening to the words he speaks. Reading his book is almost like sitting across the counter from him.

Steve's methods have been proven to work when he's live and in-person. His methods have been accurately portrayed in his book. So we conclude that Steve's book will work for you, the reader.

You do NOT have to believe us. In fact, you SHOULD doubt us and doubt anyone else trying to inform you about anything concerning firearms. There certainly are no shortages of firearms publications or people who will author them. But are they "quality" publications written by "credible and proven" experts? What are the publishers' qualifications and motivations? Is an author endorsing the same gear, guns and training that he is coincidentally purchasing from their respective manufacturers at dramatically reduced prices? Is the author boasting about his being the commander of the tactical unit of the West Nowhere Police Department? Just how many pictures of the author appear in his writings?

We understand that we must earn your trust. We do not expect you to simply bestow it in us. We encourage you to surf. We encourage you to shop. If your b-s detector goes-off, then let your fingers or feet walk you elsewhere.

Thank you. We sincerely appreciate your time and hope to find you stopping back.
