Description

One morning a 16-year-old boy named Nicholas Elliot walked into his Virginia high school with a Cobray M-11/9 stuffed in his backpack. That morning he killed one teacher and severely wounded another, and his rampage was just prevented from become one of the worst in America's long and bloody infatuation with guns. This book traces the history of the Cobray from its design and manufacture to the final, illegal transaction that placed it in Elliot's hands--thus providing a stunning expose that will completely reframe the debate surrounding America's gun crisis. Larson immersed himself in America's gun culture, and by following Elliot's gun, he uncovered the lax regulations and skewed interest that have perpetuated handgun violence, which has grown to account for 22,000 deaths and thousands injuries every year. Larson questions the political and economic forces that allowed the Cobray-originally designed as a battlefield weapon--to be marketed to the public. And he explores the broader cultural forces that nurture our fascination with violence and make gunshot death a routine feature of American life.
