Confused about self–protection and guns?
The goal of this book is to help you (especially if you are a woman) navigate the rhetoric surrounding guns and self-defense.

Whenever I attend a conference, go to a training class, or read a book like, "Calling the Shots," I go into it with an open-mind, hoping to get three things out of it. 1) Learn something new, 2) Validate something I already know, and 3) Find a nugget of information for someone I know. I can say, I got all three out of reading Jenna Meek's first ever book.This book is, on the surface, written for women, but don't kid yourself, it's applicable to anyone considering the very personal choice to live an armed life-style.
What did I learn that was new? Besides some of the more personal anecdotes, I learned a new way to look at ammunition.
What did I learn that validated something I already know? That carrying a firearm is a personal choice that carries with it a great deal of responsibility and restraint, and to practice, practice, and practice some more.
What did I learn that I could take to others? I learned, as a man and a father, that my daughter needs to make her own choices, that the gun I bought her might not be the best for her, and that she needs to journey forth on her own terms. I used to say that if you have an emotional commitment to someone, you should hire a professional to teach them to swim and drive a car. Add to that list, operate a firearm.
I'm relatively new to the whole concealed carry way of thinking, but I found myself saying, yep, yep, yep as I read through the book, and I hope you will too. It's a book that I will reference over and over again.

Calling the Shots Selfprotection and firearm choices that work for you eBook Jenna Meek Jocelyne Thomas Marc MacYoung Reviews
Male or female, this book is a great resource and MUST READ for anyone considering the purchase of a gun or obtaining their concealed carry permit.
My background is from a place in Europe where most citizens aren't allowed to own guns, most of our information about guns and use of force come from Hollywood's action movies. * The book -Calling the shots- by Jenna Meek is a good and practical introduction to all aspects of responsible gun ownership and use. It contains a lot of details I haven't thought about before, practical (how to use the bathroom while carrying), social issues (how to tell family and friends), the complex legal issues (the 51% rule was a new one for me), moral issues and more. Even for those with no intention to own a gun, it contains a lot of no nonsense information to help better understand the people who do. For people who decide they want to own a gun and live in a place where this is legal, read this book first because it will make you aware of the -why- and -what- and gives lots of practical advice on deciding what to buy for your specific needs.
I purchased this based on a recommendation from Marc MacYoung and was not disappointed. My interest in this subject is as a martial artist and theatrical fight choreographer. This is an easy to understand and comprehensive survey of the topic from a very pragmatic perspective. It is a quick read and also provides some much needed insight into an often vilified (in certain circles) practice. I highly recommend this book as an introduction to the topic of both firearms and as an introduction to gun culture for non-gun people.
This book contains a lot of information for people new to firearms as well as people debating whether or not to concealed carry/open carry. Yes, a lot of the information is directly for women, but men can learn a lot here as well. There is a lot of spot on advice on topics such as selecting the right firearm for you, thoughts on concealed carry vs. open carry, speaking to people who are against gun ownership, and it is delivered in a way that leaves you to decide for yourself. I am giving five stars to Calling the Shots as it contains a lot of really good information. Speaking as a person new to firearms, if you are new to firearms, or even undecided about buying, this book has a lot to offer.
My husband has had firearms for years, target shoots, and hunts. I have a New York State pistol permit and my request for a concealed carry designation was granted a few years ago. My husband was sent a link to this book and he asked me to forward it to a friend mine who is in the process of obtaining her pistol permit. She read it in a couple of nights. I purchased it, could not put it down on a camping trip and now my husband is reading it. This book is a must for anyone, man, woman, cat, or, dog. Whether you have no experience at all and are pondering the question of familiarizing yourself with firearms to see if it might be an option or someone with lots of experience and are open to different perspectives or you have lots of experience, tons of firearms and think you got it going on, read this book! Jenna constantly stresses different choices even the choice that maybe owning a firearm may not be for you at all, and that's okay.
A good book with a refreshing perspective. First, this book is for people who have no experience with firearms and really know little or nothing about them or carrying them. If you are one of these it is an excellent book to buy. My sister in law didn't like guns and had no use for them, until someone smashed in her front door in a home invasion while she was home. Now she carries a j-frame. Funny how circumstances can change your opinions.
Back to the book. It has a lot of stuff about relating to other people about owning and carrying firearms and addresses this from a woman's perspective. It has some good advice and avoids the police -- military -- Rambo, slant which is all too common (but fun to read) in books like this. There is a lot of "girls with guns" stuff so if you are male you will probably skim over those parts but the book is really good for anyone who wants to oun a firearm and doesn't have a clue about them.
It has an excellent section on when you can use deadly force (most new shoters don't understand this) and it is only so-so on firearm and caliber selection. If you sit around debating the merits of 9mm versus 40 S&W with your friends, this book is not for you. If you are worried about your personal safety in an often scary world, then this book is your best first step.
