Unique and Witty Insider View: Confessions of an Ex-Gun Dealer, Published by Outskirts Press
Bedford, TX, August 10, 2010 --(PR.com)-- Author and successful businessman Ludwig Sawicki today announced the release of his memoir Confessions of an Ex-Gun Dealer, published by Outskirts Press. Sawicki’s lively, entertaining saga presents a view from both sides of the counter of the inner workings of a type of institution that hardly exists anymore in America: the truly personal gun store, its amiable proprietor and the collection of unforgettable patrons who felt so at home there.
There are seventy million gun owners in America. More than forty-five million of them use their firearms on a regular basis, either for recreation or for work. Unlike in Sawicki’s native England, where shooting is only a gentleman’s sport, in America every man can enjoy the sport of a gun. When Sawicki emigrated here and bought his first .22, he knew he was at home.
Ludwig made his gun store a home, as well, to the many memorable characters -- Uncle Al, Bull Frog Bob, Adolph the eccentric gunsmith, Charlie of blow-up doll fame – who not only bought their firearms there, but who also loved to spend countless hours, elbows on the counter, telling tales of their hunting trips in search of big game or of their safaris in Africa.
Confessions of an Ex-Gun Dealer also provides a unique entrepreneurial view of Sawicki’s business expertise, and he shares the hard won, out-of-classroom knowledge and experience he gleaned over the years to make his enterprise so successful. His advice is simple: Find your passion. Follow it. Live it.
“There is no scarcity of opportunity to make a living at what you love,” he writes. “There is only a scarcity of resolve to make it happen.”
Sawicki made it happen, and readers will love hearing how he did it.
