Larry at Henning

The US shooting instructor and firearms expert Larry Vickers released the pilot volume of a series of professional books in 2016, the "Vickers Guide". In the first, now sold-out, part he presented the most American of all pistols: The 1911. Larry's books will now be available directly through Henning Hoffmann – Academy 0/500.

In the fall of 2016, Larry Vickers will dedicate a follow-up volume to another legend of firearms manufacturing: the AR-15. Due to the wealth of information, there will be two volumes on the AR-15. Volume 1 and Volume 2, which is expected to be released in the spring of 2017. And there are more parts planned on other legendary firearms and also on world famous firearms manufacturers. All books have a standardized landscape format of 33 cm by 28 cm and each will be exactly 352 pages thick. The high paper quality results in a total weight of 3.5 kg. The photos have an artistic appeal. In Europe, there will only be a very limited number of copies available. All in all, the books in the "Vickers Guide" series will quickly become coveted collector's items.

The 0/500® publishing group will take over the exclusive distribution for the Vickers Guide book series in Europe and Switzerland. The delivery of the AR-15 Vol. 1 edition is expected to start in mid-November. A second edition is planned for the sold-out 1911 volume. We will inform you in time and offer a pre-order option for all editions.
