Since beginning my career as a writer with Gun Games Magazine in the early 1990s, I’ve learned that what comes out of it depends not just on the subject but who is asking the questions. In this case, it was Jay Cassell. I’d like to thank him for challenging me to share not just a quantity of knowledge but also a point of view that I feel is timely and so much in need.
