JFlowers Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 For those who like SciFi and the Paranormal, there is a new novel out called Monster Hunter International by Larry Correia. According to the ABOUT THE AUTHOR section, Larry is a competitive shooter in Utah, so some of you might know him. The main character in the book, and some of the supporting cast talk about IPSC, High Power, and 3 Gun shooting. The main character demos the grab four and load technique on a Remington 870 and talks about the "zen" shoot don't think. All that aside, its a well put together novel about a group of people with lots of firepower taking on the paranormal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

el pres Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 (edited) Yes Larry is a local 3 gunner, a Saiga shooter as well. I have not had the chance to read the book but all I know is he self published it and it took off quite well Edited September 10, 2009 by P.Pres Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jadeslade Posted September 14, 2009 Share Posted September 14, 2009 Two more Mitch Rapp fans? Yes. I have been getting through my work week by listening to books in my car. The Mitch Rapp series are the best. Sometimes I pull over to listen and have an orange Nehi. He is an excellent shooter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
