Robert Rinker is perfectly suited to author books on the technical details of firearms. His love affair with firearms began at the age of six when his father, a military officer and newspaper man, taught him the manual of arms and gun safety. While attending school, Mr. Rinker was employed as an armed police officer at a major airport. He also worked as a tool and die apprentice during the day while attending college at night. Educated as an industrial engineer, he owned and operated his own tool-die and machine shop where some of the work was on firearms, including guns for the U.S. Navy. He also has been trained and employed as a commercial-instrument-multi-engine aircraft pilot and flight instructor. He taught aeronautics to Naval Aviators during the Vietnam War. He has degrees in both Industrial Engineering and Aviation science.
