My book just launched, and I am running a FREE promotion for this weekend. I am a gun nut like everyone else here. It is a fiction book that has loads of gun facts and firearms history. I did my best to mix in plenty of pro 2nd Amendment talk and conservative politics into the story. I hope I represented our knowledgeable and respectful community well. I have been a hobbyist and reloader for almost ten years and am a long time lurker on this and many other forums. Please take the opportunity to download it at no charge. The only thing I ask in return, please take two minutes to leave an honest review in the kindle store and tell your friends and family about it if you enjoyed it. Even if you don't own a kindle you can download the app on any android or apple device. Thanks.
There is one blatant misrepresentation of a firearm manufacturer in the story, but it sounded so cool, I didn't want to change everything around. I'm sure y'all will find it fairly quickly.

Book description:
FBI Agent Dana Simon is on the heels of one of the most elusive serial killers in our nation's history. They call him El Brujo, The Witch, and he is targeting influential and prominent individuals in positions of power. Her team is working overtime to pick up the little bits and pieces of evidence that lead up to an event that threatens to divide this country in half and recruit others into his cause.
Sample from Chapter 4:
There was a decent sized crowd in front of the courthouse when I pulled up. It appeared to be a mix of reporters, protesters, and fans. More and more were filing in every few minutes. I never understood why people would waste their time hanging out all day at an event like this. Did demonstrating do any good? Did things change when a couple of hundred people publicly gathered to express their disdain? How about fifty thousand? What if they bumped it up to ten million marching against an ideology? Now that would be a sight that would make anyone's skin crawl.
I guess I couldn't fault them. I was protesting in my own little way. But instead of picket signs and cheers, I was using a gun. History has shown people respond more to a showing of force. No one was going to take notice of a lone guy standing on the street corner shouting change. But place a rifle in his hand, and now he gains real power. I guess that's why so many people in this country are afraid of firearms and why the topic of gun control is so controversial. I had read last week a six-year-old boy was expelled from school for chewing his Poptart into the shape of a pistol. Even if it had a selector switch for full-auto, it was still absurd.
Do we have a right as individuals to own firearms for our protection and personal use? The Bill of Rights says we do, at least how I interpret it. 'Shall not be infringed' seems pretty straightforward to me. I've heard the arguments that it doesn't apply today, and our forefathers only adopted the idea, so we as citizens could take up arms against a tyrannical government if necessary. But I couldn't see a time where it was more proper and fitting than right now. It is precisely why I am here outside of the courthouse. To exercise my right as an American, to uphold the security of our free state by bearing arms and fighting for what I believe in. And looking across the square at the hundreds of people utilizing their first amendment rights it seems our ancestors knew what they were doing when they wanted to create a more perfect union.
