Handgun Tips for Writers

I'm not a gun expert by any means, but I know my way around alright. Because of this, I've had other writers ask my advice on handguns and a few other varieties several times. This is a far better reference than anything I would think to tell you.

I always love how surprised people are when little me can rack a Glock so fast. It is like a hip-check. And damn it feels good. People of different sizes/strengths will have to do it differently for what works easiest for them. I'm also left handed.

I like the Cornered Cat for info on CC. https://www.facebook.com/CorneredCatCCW - and http://www.corneredcat.com/ She also walks through cleaning hand guns and racking Glocks. Might be a good place to glean some info for fiction.

And nothing beats going out and doing a little 'research' on your own in the flesh. :D
