Massachusetts and is assigned to his county's narcotics/gang task force. Since
1973, Ralph has been a student of the martial arts. He is a well-known defensive
tactics and firearms writer, with more than 250 articles published in professional law enforcement and use-of-force journals.
In his first book, “Defensive Shooting
for Real-Life Encounters: A Critical Look at Current Training Methods,” Ralph Mroz examines the myths and misinformation
that plague the gun community. From the five deadly training traps to unrealistic training exercises to concealed-carry mistakes,
Mroz offers solutions to help defensive shooters snap out of their routines and become better and safer with their firearms.
Mroz, whose articles have appeared in Combat Handguns and Guns magazines, takes a no-nonsense approach to such topics as the
need for empty-hands skills, range training vs. real-world training, the problem of range standards, understanding and developing
startle recovery, and more.
Ralph Mroz’ second book, “Tactical Defensive Training For Real-Life Encounters: Practical Self-Preservation for
Law Enforcement,” is for police officers and civilians alike. It
is a compilation of the his articles in Combat Handguns, Tactical Knives and others tackles awareness, empty-hand, edged weapon
and firearms training with an emphasis on what pays off and what works on the street.
