One-Round War : USMC Scout-Snipers In Vietnam

Rating:
Summary: Fact filled, a good read !
Review: As one who attended the Marine Corps Scout Sniper School in 1966, I was pleased to find that this book was not just some "feel good" propaganda. There was the actual story, warts and all, about the rocky beginnings of the program and the evolution from PX rifles to the rifles of today.

This book is loaded with readable tecnical information about both the eqipment and the Marines pulling the trigger.

Summary: A Top Shelf - Must Have Book for LongArm Enthusiasts!
Review: This book is an exceptionally well-done guide to Marine Scout-Snipers in Vietnam. Unlike others who merely repeat a story or two that they've heard, Mr. Senich examines the tactical and technical side of sniping and provides for the reader a look at both the evolution of the sniper's weapon and the revolution in his employment. His research into patents, optics, rifles and sniper employment is unparalled and far superior to the mishmash of gimmicky sniper guides you find written by snakeoil salesmen these days. If you want to know about Sniping, buy this book.
