Ayoobruns the Lethal Force Institute in New Hampshire. Does training classes around the country.
Wrote the first book on armed self-defense geared specifically to the citizen: In the Gravest Extreme. Available on-line and in many gun stores.
Also has a video out--he taped a portion of one of his classes. Very informative. Judicious Use of Deadly Force. Geared to the armed citizen.
His columns appear in one or two of the big gun magazines. He usually writes about defensive situations. My favorite is his column in Combat Handguns. Each issue he takes up some legal point about defensive shooting. It is literally the only reason I buy the magazine--to read his column.
He also has a column in Backwoods Home Companion or similar named magazine. Many of his columns for that magazine are available at their website.
Former cop, regular expert witness in defensive shooting cases. The guy knows his stuff. One caution I might add, though, is that he seems to often put across his information with a deliberately emotional bent. Not much. Just enough to notice. Personally, I don't care for it. But, I just read around it, looking for the useful information.
