| Zusammenfassung: | "In this work, Abigail Kohn immerses herself in the world of "shooters." Emphasizing that not all owners are necessarily enthusiasts, Kohn travels directly to the heart of American gun culture. Frequenting gun shops and shooting ranges, and devoting particular attention to those whose interest in weaponry extends beyond the casual, she captures in detail how gun owners actually think and feel about their guns. Through her conversations - with cowboy action shooters at a regional match, sport shooters, hunters, with shooters of all ages and races - we hear of the "savage beauty" of a beautifully crafted long gun, of the powerful historical import owners attach to their guns, of the sense of empowerment that comes with shooting skill, and of the visceral thrill of discharging a dangerous weapon. Kohn brings out the myths, norms, and beliefs of gun ownership, stressing how values such as individualism, toughness, and liberty are intricately linked with the gun and exploring how these core values connect pro-gun ideology to wider cultural and political concerns."--BOOK JACKET. |
