Critical Mas(s) with Massad Ayoob is a show that provides expert analysis over a wide range of contemporaneous topics related to civilian and law enforcement self-defense, the use of force, and second amendment issues, provided by a renowned and established author with a career spanning decades in training law enforcement officers and the public at large, who is frequently called upon to provide expert witness testimony.
ABOUT MASSAD AYOOB:
Massad Ayoob has been handgun editor of GUNS magazine and law enforcement columnist for AMERICAN HANDGUNNER since the 1970s and has published thousands of articles in gun magazines, martial arts publications, and law enforcement journals. He is the author of some twenty books on firearms, self-defense, and related topics, including “In the Gravest Extreme” and “Deadly Force,” widely considered to be authoritative texts on the topic of the use of lethal force.
The winner of the Outstanding American Handgunner of the Year Award in 1998, Mas has won several state and regional handgun shooting championships. Ayoob was the first person to earn the title of Five Gun Master in the International Defensive Pistol Association. He is the current President of the Second Amendment Foundation. He served 19 years as chair of the Firearms Committee of the American Society of Law Enforcement Trainers, and several years as a member of the Advisory Board of the International Law Enforcement Educators and Trainers Association. In addition to teaching for those groups, he has also taught
for the International Association of Law Enforcement Firearms Instructors and the International Homicide Investigators seminars.
Mas has received judicial recognition as an expert witness for the courts in weapons and shooting cases since 1979, and served as a fully sworn and empowered, part-time police officer for 43 years, mostly at supervisor rank. Ayoob founded the Lethal Force Institute in 1981 and served as its director until 2009, and now trains through Massad Ayoob Group. He has
appeared on CLE-TV delivering continuing legal education for attorneys, through the American Law Institute and American Bar Association, and has been retained to train attorneys to handle deadly force cases through the Armed Citizens Legal Defense Network. Ayoob served for two
years as co-vice chair of the Forensic Evidence Committee of the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers. He also appeared in each episode of Personal Defense TV (Sportsman’s Channel).

Same! I just got my carry license last year, and there was a 24 year old college student in my class who'd never shot a gun. Once we qualified and got our licenses I let him shoot my Colt 45 Auto and he instantly fell in love. Since then he's shot all my pistols (and a few rifles) and he's now saving for a 1911 to be his EDC. Personally I like the concealability and extra mag capacity of a micro9, but I accidentally created a young boomer out of him. lol

1985. I was just getting into firearms. Found an article about LFI and Second Chance bowling pin shoot in Michigan. Decided to dig in and find out what it's all about. Called the number for LFI, probably Mas's wife answering, and asked to be registered for the Central Lake LFI-1 Course. I could write another 1,000 words about that time. But, Massad, for some reason, took me under his wing during that class. Python on his hip, 5-shot S&W in his pocket, he was the consummate instructor. After the Second Chance shoot, he took me on a tour of the vendors. Got to shoot an H&K 9mm Suppressed MP5 full auto. Asked how I could buy one of them. The vendor asked what state I lived in, I told him. Mas said; "Move to another state." I never got Mas to sign my course book "In The Gravest Extreme". But, I will never forget the skills taught to us at that time. Timeless!

The same goes for me in Chicago at the time I began my police career. Semi-autos were only carried as a secondary weapon, and you had to qualify. Most new officers purchased 357s, but you were not allowed to use 357 ammo.... only 38 Caliber. I chose the S&W Model 10 with the pencil barrel because it was much lighter and thinner than a 357 like the Colt Python. My duty belt stayed in place and certainly comfortable in everyday carry. Besides, what good was a 357 if you can’t use 357 magnum ammo. Finally, after many years, you could carry a 9mm semiautomatic. Now that I am retired and living in Florida, I carry a Sig 365-380. It's extremely accurate with very low recoil. It's small, light, and easy to conceal in warm weather clothing. Plus... 13 rounds using the 12-round magazine. This firearm and my Hoffner knife make it easy to carry defensive tools that you won't choose to leave at home for whatever reason.

I bought & wore a unused Ruger GPNY .38spl 4", 2006. The GP100 DA only gun was produced in 1991 but never used, issued. NYPD started a brief contract with Ruger for DA only, spurless revolvers but the police 🚔 union wanted Glock 19s. My GPNY sat in a dusty AL shed for around 14+ years. Lol. I wore it on security posts from 2006 to 2008.

The first auto pistol I carried, on duty was a 226... After we transitioned from revolvers in the early 1990's... Off duty I carried a 5 shot 38 chief special clone. And for my home defense pistol I had the rugged reliable Ruger P90. Today I alternate between Shield 45 and SW 1911 SC for my EDC with a swirl of Shield 40 and Hellcat Pro mixed in occasionally... I never carried 1911 on duty, because of department regulations, but 1911 has/ is my favorite pistol... God's gift to firearms.

I started on the fire dept. in 1980 and the various police departments were transitioning from revolvers to pistols. Assigned to fire prevention as a Fire Investigator. I was also assigned to take classes and training with them. I recall the various debates over brand of firearms, caliber etc. At the same time us in the fire service were also transitioning from 1 1/2 inch and 2 1/2 inch hand lines to 1 3/4 inch and 2 inch handlines. We also went from smooth bore and fog nozzles to automatic nozzles. This episode brought back memory's of the early part of my fire service career. I preferred the 1 1/2 inch handline and the Akron nozzle.

As a deputy in Florida, I started out with the S&W 6906. I transitioned to a S&W 4506. Changed departments first was a Ruger Service Six and then a S&W 4006. My least favorite duty pistol. Another department back to the 4506. Next department a Sig 220 and then a personally owned Springfield Pro model. My last department was a Glock 22. After retiring I became a part time deputy. My current carry pistol is a Staccato P. It is an excellent weapon

My dept in the mid 70's was 38 only but you could have a 357 as long as you only carried 38's in it. I was issued a very sloppy S&W 15 that shaved lead so bad I had to be on the far left side of the range. I gave it back and carried my S&W 28 until I bought my own S&W 66. I carried that for several years until the dept finally authorized 9mm. I then went to a Glock 17 since it was the least expensive of the options (you had to buy your own but use their ammo) approved. Later I went to the Glock 19 for both on and off duty. I carried that until retirement and still have it.

Made detective after a few years and was issued a Colt DS that went into evidence following a 1974 OIS and got a new Model 10 snub (still have it), then a 4” stainless revolver, made lieutenant and was issued a stainless 6 shot snub. Carried that for several years when we transitioned to the Glock 19, then Glock 23 when I finally retired in 1997.

It's been a helluva ride, Mas. I started following you in the gun magazines back in about '82. (And those weren't always easy to get up here in Canada!) I had ambitions to get into LE, and you were one of the more logical and progressive writers on that particular subject at the time... not just with regard to firearms, either; being a martial artist, I DEVOURED your writings on the Monadnock PR-24 batons. Hell, I still carry one of the original Monadnock Persuaders on my personal keyring to this day, and still keep a PR-24 beside my bed! I ended up in the private security industry instead of LE, so up here in Canada that means I never ended up carrying a duty sidearm. (Just as well, since I would have been restricted to a S&W M-10 loaded with 158 gr. lead SWC for most of my uniformed time... Canada was slow to get on the semi-auto bandwagon, ESPECIALLY in private security.) I DID carry the PR at various times in my career, though, and I thank you for introducing me to it! I still regard it as the MOST EFFICIENT baton you can carry... ESPECIALLY when it is your primary defensive tool! Thanks for all the invaluable information you have put out for us over the years Mas!
