Shane Krauser Joins Alan Korwin as Coauthor of The Arizona Gun Owner’s Guide

May 26, 2025 at 15:12 PM EDT

Shane Krauser is a former violent crimes prosecutor, an adjunct professor of criminal law, and nationally-renowned firearms instructor.

The Arizona Gun Owner’s Guide has been a bestselling book on gun rights, possession and use since 1989. Alan Korwin, one of the nation’s leading Second Amendment experts, is the principal author and has kept this guide current with each passing legislative session, both federally and at the state level, for more than 30 years.

Before the release of The Arizona Gun Owner's Guide, the nation had only arcane legalese and confusing cross-referenced statutes from which to decipher rules for gun ownership. Abuse was rampant, ignorance was everywhere, the situation was a mess. The Arizona book was a milestone. Soon after the Arizona book was published, entrepreneurs in other states picked up on the idea, and at least 37 similar volumes were issued, many coached along by Alan Korwin.

“Ever since 1989, the state of Arizona has relied upon The Arizona Gun Owner’s Guide to light the way for the public with concise, plain-English descriptions of our gun laws. It’s been important so armed citizens could do the right thing, act honorably and know they were within the bounds of the law while peacefully bearing arms. Before my work, people — including legislators and law-enforcement authorities — had only vague or often inaccurate ideas of what those laws are. We changed that for the better,” said Alan Korwin.

Entering into the book’s 28th edition, Shane Krauser has joined Korwin as a coauthor. Krauser brings credibility and experience that will allow The Arizona Gun Owner’s Guide to maintain its bestselling status.

Shane Krauser spent more than a decade prosecuting violent crimes with the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office, worked as an adjunct professor of criminal law, and taught at two different police academies in Arizona. His knowledge of weapons, their utility, and the laws surrounding justification is vast and is a welcomed addition to Korwin’s labor of love.

“I’m delighted to pass that responsibility to an individual eminently qualified to carry that torch, attorney and former Maricopa County prosecutor, Shane Krauser. A constitutional-law expert and firearms instructor with a substantial following, Shane has agreed to take over publishing the book through his Gilbert-based firm, Hilltop Press. I’m confident he will do a first-rate job and he deserves your support, as you have so generously bestowed on me,” noted Alan Korwin.

hane Krauser, the author of two additional books, emphasized that “the laws involving the use of force can be complicated. If one possesses or owns a weapon, it is incumbent upon them to really understand what the law allows, as our safety and protection depend on it. I’m honored to take on this important project that has been the frontrunner of Second Amendment education nationwide.”

The Arizona Gun Owner’s Guide is available in both physical and ebook format and can be purchased at AZGunGuide.com. The physical book runs $19.95 and bulk discounts are available. The ebook costs $9.95.
