The Conservative's Guide to Winning Every Gun Control Argument
Gun control advocates are nothing if not predictable. Whenever there is a gun control push, they trot out the same rehearsed and focus group tested talking points. Whether it is the Left’s attempt to ban so-called “assault weapons,” grant the government new confiscation powers, or restrict who should be allowed to own a gun, all of these debates are winnable. The Conservative’s Guide To Winning Every Gun Control Argument goes through each and every one of these gun control arguments and gives you the strategy and facts necessary to defeat them.
Max McGuire has Master's Degree in Political Science from Villanova University and a Bachelor's Degree in Political Science from Boston College. Having spent the past decade arguing with Liberals over and over again online, on television, and on radio, he felt it was time to put his winning debate strategies to paper and launch his "Conservative’s Guide to Winning Arguments" series to help other Conservatives do the same.

1) The gun control crowd has never been a convincing group to me. McGuire cycles through the empty-headed rhetoric that clouds this debate and makes a reasonable case for guns not being the problem.
2) The prose of this book won't win any gold medals at the fair. It is choppy, basic, and lacks polish. I think this book best functions as a mini-encyclopedia responding to common gun control arguments. As soon as he started talking about anything outside of that scope I quickly lost interest. His discussion about court cases involving guns was a bit scattershot (pun intended) and assumed the reader has prior knowledge of the context surrounding these cases. In the latter half of the book he moved away from refuting opposing arguments and started drifting into topics I wasn't interested in. His uncritical assumptions about evolution were a nuisance to read (pg104).
Overall, this is the first book-length treatment responding to gun control arguments I've read. It leaves a decent amount of potential on the table. Definitely not a cover-to cover read. But overall, a decent storehouse of information challenging the false narrative frequently megaphoned in our culture about guns.

Absolutely fantastic, this guy is brilliant.
The only thing I didn’t like was that there’s far too many editorial mistakes, like sentences cut off or not proper grammar. Not just one or two but like consistent errors, which was irritating because you expect an editor to actually pick these things up.
That aside, this book was great- great arguments, great points. I’m more interested in the 2nd Amendment than ever before- because of this book.
Our liberty is at stake protecting this Amendment, from now till the death of this republic.
