Just finished reading an e-book entitled 'Unintended Consequences'.
It is a 749 page fictional novel written by John Ross (you can get this ebook for free as a PDF...I just read it on my Sony ebook reader handheld).
It might surprise you that Ross is an investment broker and financial adviser, but he is an avid firearm afficionado that happens to be a certified personal protection instructor and has written several articles for Precision Shooting and Machine Gun news as well as a book entitled 'Self-Defense Laws and Violent Crime Rates in the United States'.
His novel is a bit jumpy from here to there, and I had problems trying to keep track of all the character names at first.
The premise of the story is a meltdown in modern times after decades of atrophy of liberties and inherent rights.
It is chocked full of real-world facts on firearms, as well as the sobering history of jack-booted activites of alphabet-soup agencies. You might know some, but I was surprised at a couple --like the Bonus Army slaughter in DC (20,000 Great War veterans peacefully marched on Washington DC during great depression and then were attacked by McArthur at their camp--shot at, stabbed, and burned out like other Hoovervilles).
A lot of details around NFA-1934, gun control act of 1968 and other legislation that strips you of rights (NOT granted by Constitution, but supposed to be guaranteed by constitution).
All-in-all, EVERYONE who wants to know about 2nd Amendment to US Constitution M*U*S*T read this book.
