By actual records, both Fairbairn and Sykes while with the Shanghai police engaged in over two hundred incidents where violent close combat occurred with oriental criminal elements.

These battle scarred veterans were experts in all types of close quarter fighting with and without weapons.

Their training techniques and methods were proven first in the back alleys of Shanghai and later with the Commando and the Special Intelligence branches of both the British and U. S. services.

Shooting To Live was the first written manual to surface in the field of combat pistol shooting. Its principles and techniques were expanded and modified upon to fit American needs in the various editions of the writer�s own text, Kill or Get Killed.

Many present day U. S. military and law enforcement combat handgun shooting techniques can be traced back to this book.
