NOTE!: I strongly recommend you get these Manuals in original soft cover print. I have found some very unreliable E-Books/CDs out there. Not to mention you can take the books anywhere and I think they will soon be a collectors item. As well I recommend them for INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY! I do not support the illegal use of the information contained in them. __________________________________________________ ____________________

Anyone have these on PDF or in a txt? Or shall I look on Limewire?

blank stare · #4 (**permalink**) 07-23-2005, 06:13 PM

Limewire will definitely have it. While you're at it, download the Bas Ruttin videos(or is it spelled Rutten?) and the other army/military/survival/self defense hand books. Really, just do a random search under .pdf file type and you'll get this kind of stuff.

kbk · #5 (**permalink**) 07-23-2005, 06:36 PM

Sweet I will start searchin now. Anyone ever hear of the Knob Creek Shoot videos? http://www.knobcreekshoot.com/Video.htm there are some samples, I found some longer ones awhile back but can't remember the site.

old but hey history is something that repeats and knowledge is something that only changes form and gets corrected over time, never does it truly become useless

GuyFawks · #19 (**permalink**) 08-29-2006, 08:02 PM

Im having troubles finding those books on those websites. The closest thing ive found is this http://www.righthook.com/fm200cd.html and that has all the field manuals on a CD. Not exactly what i want. I still am in love with the nostalagia of the cup of coffee reading a book on a cold winters day. The smells of a new book and the pleasure i get as i turn every page. Basically i would like to know where i can get those manuals in print. Please and Thank You

Edit: All the books can be found here http://www.cheaperthandirt.com
Cheers

Yeah, Bas Rutten king of combat. Arguably one of the best MMA fighters of all time and perhaps one of the best teachers. He's worked with Duane Ludwig and Semmy Schilit, both kickboxing champions.
